Wagralim participated in the Libramont Agricultural Fair to highlight innovative solutions developed by its members and partners, while promoting collaborative innovation and European cooperation across the agri-food value chain. The fair also provided an excellent opportunity to engage with companies, identify new collaboration opportunities and raise awareness of European funding instruments supporting innovation.
Wagralim’s participation was closely linked to the European project ManuREfinery, which aims to develop new circular bio-based value chains by transforming agricultural biomass and agri-food side streams into high-value ingredients, materials and bio-based products. Through discussions with stakeholders from across the agricultural and industrial sectors, the event helped strengthen the project’s visibility, gather feedback from end users and identify new organisations interested in contributing to the development of sustainable biomass valorisation pathways.
Overall, the Libramont Agricultural Fair provided a valuable platform for promoting the objectives of ManuREfinery, reinforcing connections between research and industry, and demonstrating how circular bioeconomy innovations can create new economic opportunities while supporting a more sustainable and resilient European agri-food sector.
