The Košice self-governing region in Slovakia and AgroCircles have created a partnership to support sustainable development in the Košice self-governing region.
Focusing on education and innovation, the cooperation is built upon a "Model Farm for Growing Vegetables in Organic Quality" in the Košice self-governing region, using the AgroCircles technology. The project aims to extend this model of a sustainable family farm so that it can be used by students as well as by the general public.
The project involves a model school farm cultivating biologically valuable food commodities. A prototype of the AgroCircles system technology has been produced at the Secondary School of Mechanical Engineering in Košice.
The project has multiple direct benefits: the innovative training programme will attract young people who are looking for more sustainable jobs and increase their interest in education in organic and sustainable agriculture and food production. It will also support the local economy, reduce the dependence on imported food and improve its quality. The project will also indirectly help improve the health of the population of the Košice self-governing region and provides a more responsible approach to the environment.
