Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry

The Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry (LAMMC) is an important contributor to the FBI4EU project, representing Lithuania with its extensive knowledge and experience in sustainable forestry and applied research. As one of Lithuania’s leading scientific institutions, LAMMC plays a crucial role in linking research, policy, and practice to advance the competitiveness and sustainability of the forest-based industry.

LAMMC’s mission is to generate and apply scientific knowledge that supports sustainable land use, environmental stewardship, and economic development. Its focus on innovation and the circular economy makes the Centre well-placed to contribute to the project’s goals of enhancing SME competitiveness and fostering eco-innovation in the forestry sector.

Within the FBI4EU project, LAMMC leads the development of a common methodology for regional SWOT analyses and designs thematic surveys that help identify strengths and opportunities in the forest-based industry across all partner regions. This scientific approach ensures that project outcomes are grounded in evidence and that policy improvements are adapted to regional needs.

LAMMC’s involvement in FBI4EU also highlights Lithuania’s commitment to integrating research with real-world practice and policymaking. Through collaboration with other regions, the Centre helps identify best practices, share knowledge, and promote sustainable growth in the forest-based industry both in Lithuania and across Europe.

By participating in the project, LAMMC aims to bring new perspectives to the forest-based sector, contribute to smarter policies, and help SMEs adopt innovative and sustainable solutions. Its contribution is essential for the success of the FBI4EU project and for building a more sustainable and competitive forest-based economy in Europe.
