The regional government of Castilla-La Mancha has committed approximately 500,000 euros to two research projects designed to improve the sustainability and productivity of sheep farming. 

These three-year initiatives, located at Finca La Granja in Torre de Juan Abad, include the NUTRIPAST project, which focuses on the nutritional quality of raw milk Manchego cheese through regenerative feeding, and the OVEJA REGENERA project, which explores transitioning to holistic or rotational grazing models. The projects aim to provide practical knowledge to promote more efficient production models within the regional agricultural sector.
