IN_AgriCulture is a strategic Erasmus+ KA210-VET initiative designed to address the growing gap between traditional agricultural practices and the increasing demands of modern, sustainable farming.
The project responds to a shared and urgent need identified in Türkiye, Greece, and Portugal:
the transformation of vocational agricultural education to better address environmental, technological, and economic challenges of today.
We implement a comprehensive training programme that complements formal curricula and focuses on modern cultivation methods, quality upgrading of products, and efficient, technology-supported production practices.
We promote sustainable energy and water management, responsible farming approaches, and reduced environmental footprint—helping agriculture become more resilient and future-ready.
IN_AgriCulture supports the transformation of vocational agricultural education by combining sustainability, digital innovation, and modern farming practices. Through international cooperation, the project equips educators and future professionals with the skills needed to face today’s environmental and technological challenges.
Our main objective is to implement a comprehensive training programme that complements existing formal curricula and focuses on modern agricultural cultivation methods integrating:
By training vocational educators specialised in primary production and agriculture within a lifelong learning framework, the project ensures a sustainable and long-lasting impact that extends far beyond the classroom.
To achieve optimal results, the project will be implemented through three key activity streams:
We will develop up-to-date and innovative educational resources that translate complex agricultural concepts into practical and applicable knowledge suitable for diverse learning environments.
Structured training programmes will be delivered for both trainers and trainees, supported by testing and evaluation mechanisms to validate learning outcomes and ensure effective knowledge transfer.
A targeted dissemination strategy will be implemented to strengthen the European added value of the project and ensure that results reach relevant stakeholders across local, national, and European levels.
The project is expected to generate transformative results, including:
A set of training materials combining sustainability principles, sustainable agricultural systems, and efficient energy and water management practices will be developed.
Training activities will be organised to transform theoretical knowledge into practical skills applicable in real agricultural production settings.
By disseminating the project and its results to rural and disadvantaged areas, IN_AgriCulture aims to contribute directly to:
What distinguishes IN_AgriCulture is its integrated methodology connecting three critical dimensions:
Educational Innovation + Environmental Responsibility + Technological Advancement
We believe that sustainable agricultural transformation can only be achieved by addressing these three dimensions simultaneously, creating a synergistic and lasting impact.
In an era marked by climate uncertainty, limited resources, and changing consumer demands, agricultural education must evolve rapidly. IN_AgriCulture provides a practical response by equipping those who educate farmers with the skills, knowledge, and tools required to succeed in this new landscape.
We are not only producing training materials; we are building bridges:
