Abstract/Description

The report describes the process by which the Tunisian Agroecology Initiative co-designed innovations with the local communities of the Agroecological Living Landscape (ALL). It also explains the technologies selected, the experiments carried out and the main results obtained by the national partners. The experiments carried out relate to: i) forage mixtures, ii) rhizobial biofertilizers, iii) green fertility (impact of forage on animal health and productivity), iv) biochar as a soil amendment, v) valorisation of olive mill effluent and vi) agroforestry (intercropping of forages in olive groves). It reflects on the producer's perception of the co-designed process and agroecological practices and provides general and specific recommendations for the next cycle of co-designed technologies and experiments.
