The Research Data Management (RDM) teams from the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), ZALF, and FAIRagro continued their exchange on best practices in RDM and met for three days in Uppsala, Sweden, in June. The goal was to reflect on their own work, explore new approaches, and further define future collaboration. ZALF/FAIRagro and SLU are part of the European Network for Associated Data Stewards in Agricultural Sciences, which is currently being established. Furthermore, the two organizations share numerous common ground, such as repositories, long-term field trials, legal advice, and the provision of training and information materials for researchers. ZALF/FAIRagro and SLU will continue to exchange ideas in the future to benefit from shared networks and expertise and thus expand the services offered, ultimately benefiting the research community.
