More than 100 people participate in Agrotecnio’s first teambuilding activity

The Agrotechnology Research CERCA Centre, Agrotecnio, was created in 2012 and since then has maintained a steady growth trajectory. With more than 150 scientists organised into fifteen research groups and linked to two Catalan universities, Agrotecnio is today one of the most important agrotechnology research centres in Spain. However, it had never brought together all the staff to get to know each other across groups and areas, until today.

In 2016, Agrotecnio was recognized as a CERCA center. The result of our evaluation confirmed that our activities are at the forefront of agri-food science nationally and internationally

The recognition of our work inspires us to maintain the high level of scientific research at Agrotecnio, enhancing our translation activities with industry and the community in general through the development of joint R+D+i projects
