Background: Agriculture presents multiple challenges in bringing about the environmental and inclusive transition regionally.
Launched in May 2023 by LISEA, concession holder of the South Europe Atlantic high-speed line (SEA HSL), and the line’s maintenance company MESEA, the second “Supporting sustainable local agriculture” call for projects selected 26 proposals based on three main focuses : the environmental performance of agricultural holdings ; local and inclusive development of market gardening and legume crops for human consumption; and experimental research to relocate the plant-based protein sector.
This call for projects intends to support the acceleration of the transition in the regions that the SEA HSL passes through based on local needs and national and European policies for the ecological and energy transition.
