The aim of this project is to produce significant national openings for the introduction of new bioproducts and production methods into the forest bioeconomy. These new openings are aimed at increasing the resource efficiency of the forest bioeconomy, reducing environmental impacts, reducing the carbon footprint of forestry, increasing the turnover of the sector, and new options to combat the legal rootland. In this way, the previous forest management costs can be converted into a result in the future.The growth of the natural products sector, based on the utilisation of biomasses in the forest, has been strong and its unadjusted turnover was approximately EUR 530 million. The main challenge facing the industry is the security of supply of raw materials, which is the most significant challenge for expanding and internationalising business in the natural products sector. One of the reasons for this is that the owners of the resource, i.e. forest owners, are not committed to production or are aware of the potential of their forests. This project responds to the security of supply of mushrooms, one of the most important raw material in the natural products sector, with the innovation of the Natural Resources Institute Finland. The project implements the innovation produced by the Natural Resources Institute Finland for the spreading of food and special mushrooms as part of multi-target forest management. With innovation, forest machines, harvesters can be harnessed for the systematic production of new forest biomass in connection with logging in a resource- and cost-effective manner. The project intelligently utilises existing machinery and forest management cycles for active production of natural products. The main result of the project is the feasibility study for the mechanical application of food and special mushrooms for four species of mushrooms of commercial value. The project collects background information to build a web-based platform service for forest owners and forest operators, as well as for the raw material purchasing and processing industries. The new forest resource information resulting from the project will allow forest owners to plan the production of new forest biomass that generates additional income with different forest and logging targets. Operators in the natural product or food sector that carry out further processed products can also plan raw material sourcing and production volumes and can acquire their raw materials using the information produced for the platform service. The first work package “Sweden models and raw material potential” will produce models of the most potential crops based on both field surveys and forest resource data. The models provide significant new information for forestry planning and provide an optimal date for the profitability of the investment for each stand pattern. The second work package of the project entitled “Fasibility study, piloting and business demonstrations for the mechanical distribution of food and special mushrooms”; produce a study on the feasibility of cultivation for four different types of mushrooms, together with profitability calculations for their production. In addition, piloting presentations and workshops for forest, food, natural product and biotechnology companies operating in the project area will be carried out in the work package, in which companies can get to know new innovation, production methods and create networks and supply chains more widely across different economic sectors. The third work package “Communication, Promotion and Influencing” of the project includes information and direct engagement with stakeholders, decision-makers and public authorities. Direct communication with the above-mentioned stakeholders aims at the rapid adoption and dissemination of innovation and the implementation of reforms in cooperation and ensuring stakeholder engagement. Direct communication and information also form the basis for new innovation and development activities among stakeholders. The main effect of the new innovations and products and services produced by the project is the growth of business, especially in the forest, natural products and food sectors. The activities of the project, the results and the new openings it produces in the forest bioeconomy will strengthen the development of the Eastern Finland region, in particular the Joensuu and Savonlinna region, in research, know-how and innovation in forest bioeconomy with regard to the development of innovation platforms aimed at managing the multifunctional use of forests and forest data.
