AGRO-IDENTITY

The main scope of the project is to enhance the competitiveness between the enterprises dealing with the agri-nutritional sector through the identification of the authenticity of local traditional products in the areas of North Aegean and Cyprus. Moreover, the project aims at strengthening the supporting mechanisms of the agricultural entrepreneurship in order to raise the commercial value of the traditional products to the domestic and international markets.

Specifically, the project targets include:

• The development of an innovative system which will identify the authenticity of local products using genetic identity, isotopic footprint and microbial profile.
• The mapping of the authenticity of local products in cooperation with the enterprises and research bodies.
• Development of the procedures for the local products’ origin trademark, brand name and digital identity.
