Nowadays we are talking about Smart Agriculture or Agriculture 4.0, which will no longer depend on applying water, fertilizers, and pesticides uniformly across entire fields. Instead, farmers will use the minimum quantities required and target very specific areas. It will be possible to grow crops in arid areas, making use of abundant and clean resources such as the sun and seawater. Other innovations – such as 3D printing of foods, cultured meat, genetic modification, and seawater agriculture – are still in the early stages, but could all be game changers in the next decade.

Farms and agricultural operations will have to be run very differently, primarily due to advancements in technology such as sensors, devices, machines, and information technology. Future agriculture will use sophisticated deep technologies such as robots, temperature and moisture sensors, aerial images, and GPS technology.

From secpho, we invite you to join this webinar to get some insights about the latest advances of deep tech for smart agriculture in Spain, as these advanced devices and precision agriculture and robotic systems will allow farms to be more profitable, efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly and to offer better quality.

This webinar is part of the FoodPackLab project, funded by the European Commission COSME programme, whose second internationalisation phase will be launched in September 2020. It aims at fostering cross-border and cross-sectorial collaboration between clusters and business networks in the strategic field of food security. It connects groups of four different sectors (agriculture, food processing, packaging and deep technology) and five European countries (Belgium, Denmark, France, Italy and Spain) to help European SMEs access new global value chains and ensure their position as innovation leaders in specific industries in selected third countries (India and South Africa).

This free webinar is going to be held in English and the target audience is:

– companies, R&D centres and research groups from the agriculture and photonics sector
