The European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL) is the international, non-profit, independent association of benchmarked Living Labs.
The Living Lab Circular of Inagro is aimed for optimising the role of agriculture in the circular economy through increased co-creation. This is not limited to circular solutions between farms but also between farms, industry, and society. Relevant themes within agriculture are water, nutrients, biomass, and energy. Examples of previous projects are converting the fibres from the stems of brussels sprouts into paper or testing cleaned wastewater from food industry as an irrigation source for vegetables. Also, anaerobic digestors can convert manure or food waste into heat, energy and upgraded fertilisers. The LLC exists of a network of 20 stakeholder organisations from each party within the quadruple helix (society, industry, research, government). Furthermore, all pilot installations available at Inagro could be used for research at a practical relevant scale. This includes, but is not limited to, insect halls, aquaculture, anaerobic digestor, greenhouses, climate rooms, harvesters, fertilisers, etc.
