About SusCrop
Making agriculture and horticulture circular again
The SusCrop research consortium aims to explore new routes to grow a wider variety of protein-rich crops in a climate-resilient and biodiversity-friendly way. The consortium focuses on making agriculture and horticulture circular again by developing and improving crops that can convert organic nitrogen into healthy and popular food with high protein content.
To this end, biologists, ecologists, food scientists, psychologists and statistics experts from universities and universities of applied sciences work together with farmers, industries and societal partners to gain insights from molecular mechanisms up to the entire food chain.
The consortium currently consists of researchers from
