The FOX-Food Processing in a Box project (About FOX) is pleased to invite you to its online workshop “Best Practices for Innovation workshop with European farmers” on 24th and 27th of November 2020, from 08:00-12:30 (CET).

Best practices & more
We recognize that there are already many practices dealing with processing of fruit and vegetables, both good practices and experiences that turned out to be unsuccessful. We want to build on these experiences of farmers and related stakeholders.

We want you!
We are looking for experts (farmers, representatives of farmers organizations or other stakeholders) that can critically reflect with us on the project in order to make the output as relevant as possible for them and their sector.

The focus
Sharing experiences, good and best practices of farmers and other stakeholders with experiences in the domain of (on-farm) processing of fruits and vegetables. Both workshops will have limited participants allowing maximum exchange and learning for all.

The call allows us to prepare optimally for a meaningful workshop.
