Optimization of irrigation and fertilization system in table olive crops using innovative precision agriculture methods

What was the challenge/problem addressed?

Through the project “Optimization of irrigation and fertilization system in table olive crops using innovative precision agriculture methods” we are aiming to the optimizations of the production of olive crops. Our goal is to develop a comprehensive production protocol for olive trees and their crops. Collaborating with partners is crucial as they bring specific expertise to the project, contributing significantly to the achievement of our overall objective.

Πώς λύσατε το πρόβλημα?

We are employing precision agriculture techniques in an olive oil tree orchard, aiming to determine the optimal fertilization and irrigation methods for achieving the highest production yield. Through the collection of soil data and NDVI images obtained from drone flights, we are analyzing the correlation between results from two crop periods. The ultimate goal is to develop a production protocol specifically tailored for optimizing the cultivation of olive crops.

Αυτό που είναι καινοτόμο στην πρακτική σας περίπτωση?

The application of innovative precision agriculture methods is a key aspect in our specific scenario. Given the significance of olive trees for Greece, employing novel techniques to enhance production will be beneficial.

Ποιοι είναι οι παράγοντες επιτυχίας στην επίλυση του προβλήματος?

The cooperation between the partners and the collection of data from different sources and across the crop period.

Διδάγματα

Farmers and cooperatives are increasingly intrigued by the incorporation of new technologies and smart agricultural practices into their production methods.

What role does the advisor or advisory service play with the practical case?

The regional advisory service plays a key role in coordinating this initiative, with farmers turning to them for guidance.
