Working Package 7.</p> <p>A NATAE practice abstract is a summary that describes an agroecological practice that can be used as a valuable resource by farmers, researchers, policy makers, and other stakeholders interested in adopting or promoting agricultural practices that contribute to sustainability, productivity, and competitiveness in the agricultural sector. </p> <p>This document addresses strategies for reducing chemical inputs in Mediterranean agriculture, emphasizing the importance of agroecological practices. Key approaches include crop rotation, organic fertilization (composting, mulching), varietal selection, and biological control to enhance soil health and biodiversity.
