Farm knowledge platform

The complexity of organic farming requires farmers to have a very high level of knowledge and skills. However, exchange on organic farming techniques remains limited. The web-based platform farmknowledge.org promotes the exchange of knowledge among farmers, farm advisers and scientists.

The platform offers practical testing videos and all other type of materials for arable farmers in the following topics:

• Soil quality and fertility
• Nutrient management
• Pest and disease control
• Weed management
• Cropping systems and crop specific

At the end of 2018, a new version of the platform will be launched. During the course of the RELACS project, the project deliverables will be made available on farmknowledge.org.

The web-based platform farmknowledge.org – aimed at filling the gap in the exchange of information between farmers across Europe – was launched in October 2016 within the project OK-Net Arable.
