Agrenaos has been selected as the National Ambassador for the Horizon Europe project AQUAGRI-KNOW.

In this role, Agrenaos will actively participate in the exchange of knowledge, experience, and best practices, contributing to the promotion of innovative solutions for the sustainable and efficient management of water resources in agriculture. The project’s main objective is to evaluate and promote the adoption of smart technologies and innovative practices that enhance water-use efficiency and improve crop resilience to current environmental and climate-related challenges.

On the 16-18 June 2026, AGRENAOS, as the National Contact Point for Greece, organised the 7th European Road Show of the COREnet project in Heraklion, Crete. The two-day event focused on Short Food Supply Chains (SFSCs), multifunctional agriculture, and the role of the COREnet network in supporting their development. The first day included visits to two successful SFSC initiatives in Crete (Peskesi Restaurant and Drakos Garakis Winery) followed by the webinar “The Role of Short Food Supply Chains into changing our food systems and strengthening the farmers’ position in value chains“, organised in collaboration with the CAP4YOU Project and attended by over 100 agricultural advisors from Greece and the EU.

One of the key CAP interventions supporting collective schemes in the agricultural sector is P3-77-1.1 “Establishment of Producer Groups and Organizations,” which supports newly established producer groups and organisations across all product sectors. The final results of the intervention were recently announced, with 209 approved producer groups and organizations and a total budget of €45 million.

We are particularly pleased that all 16 of our groups that participated in the intervention are on the list of successful applicants. Over the next 5 years, we will implement their business plans, aiming to foster their growth and strengthen the position of producers through collective effort. Check also the guide (in Greek) we have published exclusively for producer groups and organizations.

AGRENAOS, in collaboration with the European CORENET project, is organizing an event on June 17 in Heraklion, Crete titled “How can multifunctional agriculture support short food supply chains.” The purpose of the event is to highlight the importance of diversifying activities in agriculture and livestock farming so that producers can easily reach consumers and to showcase best practices from farms in Crete and the EU.
This workshop will be attended by European partners from various EU countries participating in the CORENET program, as well as local managing authorities, representatives of ELGO, and agricultural advisors, with the aim of sharing their expertise with farmers and advisors in Crete.

The event will be lively streamed from our channel on Youtube:

Our first-ever participation in Greece’s largest agricultural fair was a demanding but, in every respect, rewarding experience. Over the course of four days, we organized an event for AKIS in Greece with over 130 participants, informed hundreds of visitors at our booth about the Common Agricultural Policy, forged partnerships, and had the opportunity to meet new collaborators and talk with many colleagues.

Our flagship event within the framework of the CAP4YOU program will take place at this year’s AGROTICA exhibition and will be dedicated to the AKIS system. This is a system that has emerged as being of key importance both for the current and the upcoming Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), yet it remains largely unfamiliar in our country.

Speakers from the EU, the National AKIS Committee, the Ministry of Rural Development and Food, agronomists and technical experts, farmers and agricultural cooperatives, as well as representatives from research and education, will present their perspectives through their respective organizations on how the agricultural sector in Greece can be upgraded through the dissemination of knowledge and innovation.

If you plan to visit the exhibition, do not miss our event this Saturday, March 14, at 13:30, in Hall C, Conference Center “Nikolaos Germanos.”

On Friday, February 27, 2026 (5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.), the CAP4YOU program invites you to its first webinar on the Green Architecture of the CAP. Various topics will be discussed, such as enhanced conditionality, eco-schemes, and the new agri-environmental measures. The speakers of the webinar will be:

Sotiris Koutsomitros – Senior Consultant: Agricultural Policy & Rural Development, Environment
Nikolaos Karavas – Senior Advisor: Biodiversity, Agroenvironment, Natura 2000
Christos Karatzas – Coordinator CAP4YOU, AGRENAOS

Our company is co-organizing, together with the Center for Training and Lifelong Learning of the Hellenic Mediterranean University (HMU), an innovative lifelong learning program entitled “Introduction to Contemporary Trends in Agriculture Shaped by the New Common Agricultural Policy.”

The program, with a total duration of 150 hours, aims to train participants in the new trends in agriculture and to help them understand the principles of sustainable management of an agricultural holding within the framework of the new CAP. Participation is hybrid, combining distance learning with in-person attendance at HMU facilities in Heraklion.

Participation in the program is provided free of charge, funded by the European project CAP4YOU.
