Project Narrative

BENEFITS The project is conducted in partnership with groups of small and medium farmers in Spain wishing to develop a model of sustainable agriculture to overcome the economic crisis in the country. This project includes several components such as the transition to organic farming, diversification of the activities with the planting of fruit trees (olives, almonds, pistachios), old trees species preservation, protection of biodiversity and natural habitats (especially for birds) or fire-devastated areas regeneration.The Fundación Global Nature coordinates planting activities on the premises: it provides technical assistance and monitoring of the established plantations.
