Agriculture of Data (AgData)
▶Summary
Agriculture of Data (AgData) AgData is a large endeavour with a variety of partners bringing together in particular research funders and research providers. Digital technologies and data are integral to the future of agriculture. AgData will enhance the use of data for developing data-based solutions, methodologies, and indicators to improve climate adaptation and resilience of agriculture as well as to minimise the undesired impact of agriculture on the climate, environmental quality, ecosystem services. AgData has focus on integrating data from different sources including EO, environmental, agricultural and other relevant data in the combination with data technologies (including AI). The partnership will build on results of existing (ongoing or finished) initiatives and projects. AgData will explore the potential for achieving synergies with programmes, projects and activities on digital and data technologies in member states and between EU and its member states and associated countries. At the EU level AgData will explore synergies with relevant topics / projects, partnerships, missions particularly in Cluster 6 and Cluster 4 of the Horizon Europe Programme as well as with the Digital Europe Programme, the EU Space Programme and the Common Agricultura Policy.Via its unique concept of Use Cases (UCs), the AgData partnership will deploy a broad variety of activities in all relevant branches of agriculture based on modern digital-technologies and data sources. The UCs will all be based on the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA). Besides the UCs AgData will also implement joint calls for transnational proposals resulting in financial support to third parties (FSTP).
