Precision Agriculture

“In this webinar, we dive into the fundamentals of Precision Agriculture with Professor Emilio Gil from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. As part of our Agriculture and Acquisition module, this session aims to bridge the gap between scientific research and practical, everyday farming.

In this webinar, we will:

• Explore the core concepts of decision-based agriculture and the digital transformation of modern farming.
• Introduce the Smart Droplets Project and our mission to develop autonomous navigation and smart spraying technologies.
• Learn how to use precision tools, such as drones, ultrasonic sensors, and satellite imagery, to create prescription maps that optimize and reduce the use of plant protection products.
• Discuss the real-world challenges of digital adoption in European agriculture, addressing barriers like small farm sizes and the critical need for technical training.
• Showcase practical applications, early disease detection systems, and mobile tools (like the Dosaviña app) that help make sustainable and profitable farming a reality.”
