Scientist says Malta could also learn from countries engaged in ‘re-soiling. Malta must prepare for more weather extremes such as powerful storms and hotter heatwaves in the coming years, a leading climate scientist has warned. The Mediterranean is a “climate hotspot” set to see more intense and worsening conditions than other parts of the world, according to Stefano Moncada, associate professor and head of the University of Malta’s Islands and Small States Institute. And as a result, more extreme weather events are expected to become more frequent.

On 19 May 2026, the CIHEAM presented the MONALISA project during the webinar organised by the General Commission for Sustainable Development (CGDD) of the French Ministry of Ecological Transition, dedicated to future "SOILS" calls for proposals under the Horizon Europe programme.

Regenerative farming could save enough wheat during drought to produce 130 million baguettes, according to a new French study.
Drought is a complex hazard with far-reaching socio-economic and ecological impacts that are often inadequately captured by conventional indices based solely on hydroclimatic anomalies. To bridge this gap, this study develops novel impact-based combined drought indices (iCDIs) that directly relate hydroclimatic drivers to remotely sensed vegetation stress, here used as a proxy for observed agricultural impacts. The proposed framework employs a machine learning framework to optimize the selection of hydroclimatic predictors including precipitation, temperature, and soil moisture across distinct hydrological clusters of the European domain. This bottom-up machine learning-based approach outperforms traditional indices in reproducing observed vegetation responses across European river basins.

Food fraud represents a growing global challenge with significant implications for public health, market integrity, sustainability, and consumer trust. Beyond economic losses, fraudulent practices undermine the environmental and social sustainability of food systems by distorting markets, misusing natural resources, and weakening incentives for authentic and responsible production. Despite the establishment of harmonized frameworks of the European Union for official controls, the increasing complexity of food supply chains has exposed persistent gaps in fraud detection, particularly for high-value products such as those with PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) and PGI (Protected Geographical Ιndication) Certification.
