CORE Organic is an ERA-NET - a network of European ministries and research councils funding research in organic food systems at national levels. The objective of the ERA-NET is to join forces and fund transnational research projects support a focused and coordinated research and innovation effort covering the most important challenges along the organic value chains. CORE Organic is the acronym for "Coordination of European Transnational Research in Organic Food and Farming Systems".

CORE Organic Cofund (2016-2022) is a collaboration between 27 partners in 19 countries/regions on funding transnational research projects in the area of organic food and farming. CORE Organic Cofund has in total funded 29 research projects based on funds from participating countries and funding from the European Commission.

Agroecology: research for resilient, sustainable, climate-, ecosystem- and social-friendly farming systems

The EU has set ambitious targets for the agricultural sector. Not only do Europe’s farmers need to ensure a reliable supply of high-quality food – fruit, vegetables, nuts, cereals and animal products – and non-food products at competitive prices, they must also deliver on the environmental commitments of the EU Green Deal and farm to fork strategy. 14 EU-funded research projects that are helping to shape the future of farming - CORE Organic is one of them

The true story of the friendship between rhizobia and legumes

Associations between leguminous plants and nitrogen-fixing bacteria (rhizobia) are a classic example of mutualism between a eukaryotic host and a specific group of bacteria. Rhizobia fixes atmospheric nitrogen improving plant yield and contributing to a sustainable agriculture. Watch this educational video on symbiosis rhizobia/leguminous.

Oilseed by-products as potential source of antioxidants and essential fatty acids

14 different organic and non-organic by-products from the oilseed industry were analyzed for their nutritional profile, showing that most oilseed by-products have a potential to serve as a source of antioxidants and essential fatty acids in new bakery products.
