Our colleague Sarah Yates attended the 5th Project Meeting for our QuantiFarm Project in Lisbon, where consortium members gathered to share updates and progress. Sarah and Tomas Fiege Vos de Wael are leading the Governance Mechanism of the Assessment Framework, which is led by Polimi (Osservatori Digital Innovation, Filippo Renga, Chiara Corbo, Sandra Cesari de Maria, Andrea Bianchi and Francesco Parigi). Smart Farming Technology Group - Agricultural University of Athens with George Papadopoulos play an integral role in this work package, focusing on the design of the cost and benefit calculators. The last decade has seen a surge in interest and investment in digital technologies for agriculture and food production, commonly known as "precision agriculture," "smart farming," and "digital agriculture." However, despite the many predicted benefits of Digital Agricultural Technologies and Solutions (DATSs) in agriculture, their actual uptake by EU farmers has been slow due to various challenges, including lack of knowledge, insufficient data on costs and benefits, and social factors like cultural attitudes. The QuantiFarm project aims to address these challenges by providing independent quantitative and qualitative assessments of DATSs. The project involves 30 QuantiFarm Test Cases including different types of farms across 20 countries in 10 biogeographical regions, using DATSs under various conditions and business models. Our goal is to make these assessments replicable, comparable, and practically useful for farmers, advisors, and policymakers. This is crucial for facilitating the uptake of DATSs and designing effective policy measures. Are you interested in learning more about this topic, please connect with our colleague Sarah! We are looking forward to continuing our collaboration! #SmartFarming #DigitalAgriculture #PetersonProjectsAndSolutions #FarmingForFuture #QuantiFarm #Sustainability #AgricultureInnovation
