REAGRY: Agroecological Transitions Rooted in Tradition for Climate Resilience

Climate change, soil degradation, and biodiversity loss are accelerating the need for sustainable agricultural solutions across Europe. While traditional land-use practices such as rotational grazing, agro-silvopastoral systems, and communal land management have long supported ecosystem stability, their integration into modern farming remains fragmented. The REAGRY project bridges traditional agricultural knowledge with scientific innovation, modernising and validating agroecological practices to support scalable, climate-resilient transitions across diverse European landscapes. A multi-actor, transdisciplinary approach is at the core of REAGRY. The project engages farmers, policymakers, researchers, and local communities through five Living Lab (LL) in Hungary, Romania, Spain, Turkey and Portugal. These LLs are embedded in pilot sites and function as participatory platforms for co-developing and testing context-specific practices. Each LL is supported by a farmer-led learning network, facilitating peer exchange and capturing regionally grounded knowledge. Pilot actions in each region evaluate agroecological methods under varying climatic and socio-economic conditions.
