MVARC stands for Moinhos de Vento Agroecology Research Centre and is the company that harbours the MyRockrose enterprise. MVARC has several ongoing projects, research oriented, dedicated to sustainable, regenerative, resilient and adaptive agriculture, with particular emphasis to agroforestry – mixing woody perennials (trees/shrubs) with crop or pastural livestock systems. We are the same people (yes… researchers can also be tractor drivers!), that see in the MyRockrose project an escape to bring research into practice at different levels. From soil microbial sampling, to modelling agroforestry resource use efficiency, to policy challenges, we look forward to meet interesting agents for the transition needed to sustain rural livelihoods, cultural heritage, and regenerative agroecosystems.
