WEBINAR: Green Infrastructure in Agricultural and Livestock Farms: Observing, Measuring and Making Better Decisions Through Practice

Every day, farmers and livestock producers make decisions that directly affect the productivity, costs and resilience of their operations. But how can they know whether a particular practice is really working? What information is worth monitoring, and how can it support better decision-making?

In this webinar, organised by Cajamar Foundation and Ecoacsa , we will share real-life experiences that demonstrate how observation and measurement can become valuable tools for the day-to-day management of agricultural and livestock farms.

Through practical case studies on extensive livestock farming, functional biodiversity and biological pest control, participants will discover how green infrastructure can provide valuable insights to better understand what is happening on the ground, anticipate challenges, optimise management practices and generate value.

The session will combine practical examples, knowledge exchange and audience participation. In addition, attendees will learn about the free training opportunities offered through Nature HUB for those interested in deepening their understanding of nature-based solutions, learning how to measure their outcomes and applying them in practice to improve farm management and profitability.

Integrating nature into the city: a technical challenge that opens up new professional opportunities

Participamos en la Feria de Empleo Forestal y Ambiental de la ETSI de Montes de la Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, donde se abordó el papel clave de la infraestructura verde y las soluciones basadas en la naturaleza (SbN) en la transformación de las ciudades.

El debate puso el foco en la necesidad de entender la infraestructura verde como un sistema funcional que integra biodiversidad, conectividad ecológica y servicios ecosistémicos, así como en el creciente peso del dato y la innovación en su planificación y gestión.

En este contexto, se destacó también la creciente demanda de perfiles profesionales capaces de diseñar, implementar y evaluar este tipo de soluciones en entornos urbanos.
