    Mediterranean stone pine (Pinus pinea) forests produce an edible kernel with extraordinary commercial value and high demand. However, this resource is underperforming in eastern Pyrenees (Catalunya and Pyrenees-Orientales) because of the technically complex cone harvesting and the difficult estimation of annual production. Moreover, this area lacks an organisation centralizing the production, which could optimize harvesting costs and concentrate the supply. In light of this, and based on innovation and partnership between entities of both sides of eastern Pyrenees, it is intended to boost the economic activity linked with pine nuts and cones through the study of innovative market strategies including a new system for the concentration of supply and an cross-border platform for pine nuts and cones purchase-sell. The project also aims at innovating in pine cones quantification and harvesting based on new technologies and sensors, as well as adapting, developing and assessing the cost-effectiveness of new (semi)mechanical harvesting systems. Finally, the project pretends to valorise, manage and protect the current Pinus pinea resources in both regions with the creation of a database and cartography quantifying the present and future supply, the vulnerability in front of disturbances (particularly, forest fires) and the preparation of management models (production + protection) for this species in eastern Pyrenees.
