“Regenerative Agriculture Workshop” | “Εργαστήριο Αναγεννητικής Γεωργίας”The comprehensive workshop curriculum is designed to cater to farmers engaged in olive production, arable crops (specifically winter cereals), and vegetable crops. Given that in Greece, most small to medium-scale farmers handle a diverse array of crops, the workshop will aim to cover a broad range of applications, as many regenerative agriculture practices are common across these various crops, ensuring the relevance and practicality of the training for the participants.
The target audience for the proposed workshop comprises existing farmers seeking a transition to regenerative agricultural practices and young farmers initiating new farming ventures.
Dr. Sakis Gertsis, an expert in precision agriculture and sustainable olive production; Dr. Nathalie Kamou, a plant pathologist with specialty on biological control; Dr. Chris-tos Vasilikiotis, Associate Dean of Research Chair of the Sustainable Agriculture & Management Dept. Perrotis College.
