NEW TRENDS IN PUBLISHING RESEARCH AND TRANSFERRING THE KNOWLEDGE ON ANIMAL PRODUCTION – presenting Animal Open Space and EUREKA project

This paper presents two initiatives to disseminate results from animal production research and agriculture in general. The first one is the e-platform animal open space (ANOPES), intended for research results. It opens the possibility to publish research, methodological and data papers with faster review and is already operational. The second initiative is a proof-of-concept study of the EUREKA project to create an agricultural knowledge e-platform to strengthen the agricultural knowledge and innovation system of the European Union. For ANOPES, the scope and opportunities for publication are presented. For EUREKA, the analysis of data and knowledge objects created in multi-actor projects and their relevance to the knowledge repository are presented.The financial support of EU for project EUREKA (grant agreement No 862790) and Slovenian Research Agency core financing (program Sustainable Agriculture P4-0133) is acknowledged
