Какво беше адресираното предизвикателство/проблем?
Remote sensing has become a useful tool in precision agriculture. въпреки това, most of these solutions are aimed to intensive farming and/or high-revenue crops, which make it unpractical and too expensive in rainfed cereal fields in the Mediterranean region.
Как решихте проблема?
Freely available Sentinel satellites greatly reduces operation costs for a continuous monitoring of crops status. UAV data is only used for detailed mapping once detected any anomaly.
Какво е иновативно във вашия практически случай?
Instead of providing Vegetation Indices, only understood by RS experts, we deliver physically-based products, in terms of leaf biomass, nitrogen and yield, that can be used by any technician or farmer
Какви са факторите за успех при решаването на проблема?
Minimal operation costs and a scalable application allowed easy and cheap access to this information to farmer unions and cooperatives
Поуки
It is feasible to provide in near-real time information on crop properties at regional and national level, including forecasting of yield and N extractions
Most farmers are open to these tools but current services are far from their requirements in terms of services provided and overly high costs
Каква роля играе съветникът или консултантската служба с практическия случай?
We worked hand by hand with farmers, which allowed us to understand their true needs and existing gaps in precision agriculture practices. They also provided yield data for validating our products
Може ли вашият подход да бъде прехвърлен и/или адаптиран за други иновационни предизвикателства и региони?
