Circolarità - Digital platform for the circular economy in organic farming

An experimental development project for a digital circular-economy platform in organic farming, co-funded by the European Union under Regione Lazio’s ERDF Regional Programme 2021-2027 (STEP Lazio call).

Circolarità develops the digi-circular model: a platform where organic farms and consumers meet in a local network and the whole farming process is traced and shared, to reduce food waste and emissions through direct sales and short supply chains, to make farming practices transparent and to measure their impact on the environment and the local area.

The expected result is the platform tested in an operational environment (TRL 7) with the Biodistretto Etrusco Romano: at least 8 of its 14 organic farms active on the platform, at least 500 active consumers and an estimated reduction of at least 10% in food waste and 15% in CO2 emissions from deliveries.

AQTEC is the lead partner and coordinates the project, in partnership with Adeo S.r.l., which designs and develops the software platform for monitoring product and process circularity.

The components of the platform:
