The AgrI-fiSh Project intends to increase the environmental and socio-economic performances of small-scale farming systems (aquaculture and agriculture) thought the development of an innovative system, which will help in improving organizational aspects of the agri-systems and creating a new value chain governance model at the local levels. The AgrI-fiSh project will contribute to the transition to a more resilient agro-livelihood system through an innovative circular farming system, which promotes an efficient use of biological and natural resources with a valuable increase in productivity. New potential for farms, agri-food systems and local markets will arise from the valorization of wastes issued from organic and Climate-Smart Agriculture (CSA), to be used for the creation of high-value feeds for a sustainable aquaculture. Nutraceutical potential of such agricultural wastes (i.e from grape seeds, legumes and cereals), in combination with other components (LABs from whey and medicinal herbs) are used to create plant-based feeds for aquaculture, which will foster animal and human health with consequent benefits for the environment, local economies and consumers.
