“Farming with Intelligence”: Free participation of producers in the Project – Digital transformation of the agricultural sector

Greece paves the way for the digital transformation of the Agricultural Sector pan-European, with the “Agriculture with Intelligence” Project. With the main objective of coping with the major challenges such as climate change and the economic crisis, which it has been facing in recent years, the agri-food sector will have valuable data in its hands with the completion of this important project.

The “Agriculture with Intelligence” Project is implemented by the Union of Companies “NEUROPUBLIC – OTE – SKARMOUTSOS GEORGIOS” and is the first comprehensive approach to the collection and utilization of data at a national level. It is noteworthy that, apart from the above, it is the first time that all this valuable information which is collected, reaches the directly interested – the farmer – and indeed without cost.

“Agriculture With Intelligence”: A Visionary Project

The “Smart Agriculture” Project is synonymous with innovation, as it connects scientific knowledge and technology with agricultural practices, in order to provide multiple benefits to Greek farmers and members of agricultural cooperatives. The technological infrastructure that has been installed nationwide, collects heterogeneous data, which feeds the Intelligent Agriculture Software Platform significantly evolving the wider agricultural sector. All data is stored and processed using “smart” algorithms with the aim of being available in a user-friendly format.

The “Smart Agriculture” Project is implemented within the framework of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece 2.0” with funding from the European Union – NextGenerationEU.
