The Project
PROSPER - “Promoting Resilient Orphan Legumes for Sustainable Agriculture and Food Security” is a Horizon Europe project that will deliver sustainable technical solutions using resilient orphan legumes (OLs) to diversify agriculture and value chains across Mediterranean, Central, and Northern Europe.
​
Through a multi-actor, participatory approach, it will co-create technologies that enhance crop productivity in challenging environments, expand food and biocircular economy products, and provide on-demand spatial information services.
Building on partners’ past expertise, PROSPER will develop novel resilient legume varieties, assess their environmental and nutritional performance, and promote technology transfer.
The project aims to boost biodiversity, ecosystem services, and agricultural sustainability while fostering socioeconomic development and connecting EU and global biodiversity policies.
