ERA-Net SusAn (Sustainable Animal Production) informed the participants on 19th January 2017 about the outcome of the first Co-funded Call. A total of 23 European Funding Parties will fund 14 projects with 16 mio EUR including Top-Up funding by the EU.

Three different EU funding networks: ERA-NET SusAn (ERA-NET on Sustainable Animal Production Systems); ERA-GAS (Greenhouse Gas Monitoring and Mitigation in Agri- and Silviculture); and ICT-AGRI 2 (Information and Communication Technologies and Robotics for Sustainable Agriculture) are organizing a joint workshop to identify promising system approaches to reduce GHG emissions in livestock production and set coming research priorities.

The 2016 Call for Pre-proposals closed 29 March. SusAn will communicate the outcome of the eligibility check and the evaluation of the pre-proposals to the research project coordinators by 11 July. See our Evaluation Guidelines for a detailed timeline.
