Climate Farm Demo: Eco-Schemes in semi-arid farming

The team at La Junquera hosts a Climate Farm Demo Day that focuses on implementing eco-friendly schemes in semi-arid regions like Murcia, Spain. These eco-schemes are voluntary measures that farmers can adopt to receive additional payments from the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). The demo highlights practical steps farmers can take to implement them, helping to mitigate and adapt to climate change while maintaining productivity. The event covers six land categories, including tree crops, cereals, and pastures, and introduces practices like vegetation strips, crop rotation, biodiversity islands, extensive grazing, and sustainable cutting. By promoting knowledge exchange, the event encourages farmers to adopt these new eco-schemes effectively, even in challenging climates.
