Farmers in Cluj and Bistrița-Năsăud will participate in a European project worth 8 million euros aimed at improving pasture productivity using satellite observations and field data. The GrassWise project addresses the decline of European pastures due to agricultural intensification and climate change. It involves 135 partner farms and nine pilot communities across Europe and New Zealand, focusing on innovative grass and legume mixtures to enhance environmental and economic benefits. An integrated European pasture data platform will be developed to facilitate knowledge exchange and practical solutions tailored to regional agricultural conditions. The project is coordinated by Teagasc from Ireland and runs from October 2026 to September 2030, funded by the EU's Horizon Europe program.
