MICROBIOMES4SOY joins the FOOD 2030 Online Platform 

The MICROBIOMES4SOY project is now part of the FOOD 2030 Project Collaboration Network and featured on the FOOD 2030 Online Platform, a hub for transformative projects working toward sustainable food systems. 

Why is this important? 

The FOOD 2030 Network plays a critical role in accelerating innovation and collaboration across the food system. By being part of this platform, Microbiomes4Soy gains the opportunity to: 

  • Expand its network: Connect with like-minded projects and experts shaping the future of food. 
  • Maximise impact: Showcase results, tools, and resources to a wider audience, amplifying our mission to elevate soya’s role in sustainable food production. 
  • Drive collaboration: Participate in joint activities, share insights, and build synergies with other initiatives tackling food system challenges. 
  • Inform policy: Contribute to shaping future EU policies through informed discussions and evidence-based research. 

What can you find on the network? 

The FOOD 2030 Online Platform offers access to a wealth of resources, including toolkits, collaborative projects, and insights into innovative practices. It’s a space to: 

  • Learn about sustainable solutions transforming food systems. 
  • Discover inspiring partnerships and case studies. 
  • Access opportunities for joint events, training, and support. 

Join us on the journey 

Together with the FOOD 2030 network, MICROBIOMES4SOY is working to advance sustainable, plant-based protein solutions for healthier diets and a healthier planet. Visit the FOOD 2030 Online Platform to explore how our project and others are driving change in the food systems. 

Understanding Soya Plant Microbiomes: Enhancing Crop Productivity

MICROBIOMES4SOY aims to explore the dynamics and potential of plant microbiomes, specifically focusing on the soya bean model. The project seeks to understand how plant microbiomes impact soya crop productivity. Additionally, it aims to develop microbiome-informed approaches, including agricultural strategies and prediction models, to improve yield stability, promote environmental sustainability, and ensure food safety and quality during production.

Soya-Based Aquafeeds: Innovating Aquaculture Sustainability

In the realm of aquaculture, MICROBIOMES4SOY seeks to pioneer solutions by creating innovative soya-based aquafeeds. The project aims to evaluate the effects of these novel feeds on the fish gut microbiome and overall health, addressing both environmental and nutritional aspects of aquaculture.

Joint Efforts for Food Systems Transformation

MICROBIOMES4SOY aims to work collaboratively with food system stakeholders to define regional transition pathways towards plant-based protein diets, contributing to broader shifts in dietary practices.

Improved Microbiome-Based Knowledge and Skills for Food System Actors

Knowledge and skill empowerment is a key objective, intending to equip food system actors with expertise on microbiome interactions, benefits, and industrial applications. This will be achieved through a multi-actor approach, that shares understanding of microbiomes within the broader context of food systems.

Microbiome-Informed Dietary Recommendations:
Exploring Human Health Impacts

Moreover, human health is a central theme, with a dedicated objective to investigate the impact of soya-derived protein diets on the human gut microbiome. The project aims to provide microbiome-informed dietary recommendations, contributing valuable insights to the intersection of nutrition and microbiology.
