About
Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to SRUC for research and development services under the ERA-NET Joint Call on Circularity 2021, following a competitive EU-level tender process.
The project, titled 'MI BICYCLE: Mitigation and adaptation through better biomass cycling in crop livestock systems of north and west Europe', aimed to co-design locally improved, innovative circular crop and livestock systems in North and Western Europe.
The research addressed the limited integration between crop and livestock production in these regions, exploring improved integration at farm or landscape level to enhance circularity in biomass utilization, particularly for co-products such as residues, manure, and waste.
The contract value was £99,081.
