Navarra 360º is the first landscape project of the Regenerative Innovation Portfolio. The project will invest €3 million over three years to support 80 farmers in Navarre, northern Spain, to implement regenerative agriculture in their crop rotation systems. EIT Food is supported by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union. 

Navarra 360º will combine financial support with training in technical aspects of regenerative practices, with a focus on oat, wheat and barley crops. The project will take a holistic approach, studying more than 60 key indicators including soil quality, biodiversity, water use, carbon footprint, as well as social and economic indicators. 

The expected results include a 20% reduction in the use of phytosanitary products and a 40% reduction in mineral fertilisation. The project will conclude in 2026 and will inform the design and delivery of further landscapes in other parts of Europe. 

The landscape is promoted and co-funded by Alpro, Cargill, Danone Ecosystem, Intermalta and EIT Food. A relevant set of local partners, such as cooperatives, banks and local government representatives are supporting the project to reach the necessary local stakeholder engagement. 

The Regenerative Innovation Portfolio is an ecosystem collaboration, established as a Food Innovation Hub Europe Initiative of the World Economic Forum, and delivered by EIT Food and Foodvalley NL.
