Subsidies and partnerships

Smart Farming

New technologies such as robots, drones, sensors, and AI are necessary to make the leap to Smart Farming and food processing. Through subsidies and cooperation with Interreg we bring farmers, technology developers, and knowledge institutions together around these concrete issues. In some of our innovation projects, we develop new solutions and adjust and improve existing systems.
