Main Projects

VTskills

(Project in progress)

The VTSkills project was created with the aim of designing a training and knowledge transfer program, specific to the wine sector, to enable winegrowers to learn and apply the main techniques of sustainable precision agriculture and improve their production systems to adapt to the present and the future. 

In this way, they will be able to meet the requirements of the European framework brought about by the new Green Deal policies and the new CAP without losing sight of production profitability.

POSHMyCo

(Project in progress)

Potential of selective harvest based on mycotoxins content assessment in cereal crops. An ICT-AGRI-FOOD Project looking for establish a novel solution to reduce the risk of mycotoxin contamination in food products originated from barley and wheat grains by adopting smart farming technologies.

Tomatia

2022 – 2023

Adjustments and industrial validation, through advanced monitoring, of AI-based algorithms for yield estimation and quality of industrial tomatoes.

Implementation of methodologies capable of applying information technologies and precision agriculture procedures to the industrial tomato harvesting process, in order to optimize its execution and generate real-time data.
