GECO 2.2 Project Advances Zero-Emission Agriculture in Italy and Croatia
The GECO 2.2 initiative, funded by the Interreg Italy-Croatia Programme, focuses on creating a voluntary carbon market for agriculture. It aims to implement innovative practices for carbon sequestration in soil and biomass, with potential for replication across Europe.

The GECO 2.2 project, running for two years, aims to establish a voluntary carbon market in agriculture, where stakeholders can buy carbon credits to offset emissions. This initiative, funded by the Interreg Italy-Croatia Programme, involves partners including CIHEAM Bari and regional agricultural organizations.
The project emphasizes sustainable agriculture practices that enhance soil carbon conservation and biodiversity. A closing event on July 21, featuring discussions on carbon farming and the new Common Agricultural Policy, will highlight certification models and operational tools developed during the project. This framework could significantly influence European agricultural practices and climate change mitigation strategies.
