Central European cooperation starts in the interest of developing agro-research.
“Greater emphasis must be placed on research, innovation, cross-border cooperation and joint action by the region within the biomass-based economy, in the interests of assuring the further sustainable growth of agriculture and the facilitation of knowledge-based development”, State Secretary Zsolt Feldman said at an agro-reasearch conference in Budapest.
“Hungary’s BIOEAST initiative is aimed at facilitating the sustainable development of knowledge-based agriculture, aquaculture and forestry within the bio-based economy in the Central and Eastern European region, and to enable the region’s more significant participation in the European Research Area and increase its share of the application of European Union research & development funding”, he added.
