What is AGRARSENSE?
AGRARSENSE is a large 3-year Chips Joint Undertaking consortium project aiming to develop microelectronics, photonics, electronic packaging for agricultural use and forestry. The project will also develop related ICT and data management to realise large scale field demonstrators for real industrial needs.
Food security has become an increasing concern due to a mixed bag of factors that include climate change, fragile supply chains and agricultural activity. In fact, the increase in agricultural production to nourish a growing global population has highlighted the need for innovative solutions. With this in mind, the EU-funded AGRARSENSE project will combine the efforts of large enterprises, SMEs and research and technology organisations. To do this, they will develop several technologies like automated agricultural tools and improved sensor technology that will help improve efficiency and protect value chains.
