Project description
The main objective of the project is to support the operation of the knowledge cluster established in 2023. The network of the sustainable use of peatlands operates particularly in Southern and Central Ostrobothnia, but also in the national context. subfields are agriculture, forestry, peat production and other industries exploiting peatland and the protection of peatlands. The knowledge cluster is a cluster of regional and national actors, whose activities are characterised by the polyoptimisation of different areas of sustainability and the consideration of the landowner's perspective in developing the sustainable use of peat soils.
