Description du projet
Développer les perspectives de l’agriculture de précision grâce à l’IA
Le projet AgriBIT, financé par l’UE, a pour ambition d’accroître la précision, l’exactitude et la continuité des services afin de permettre aux agriculteurs de bénéficier de meilleurs services d’agriculture de précision. Cela permettra de réduire les coûts en diminuant l’utilisation d’intrants, de réduire l’impact environnemental et d’augmenter les rendements de production. AgriBIT améliore les synergies avec le GNSS et l’OT (observation de la Terre) et combine ces informations avec des capteurs et des actionneurs sur le terrain et sur la machine, ainsi qu’avec des connaissances agricoles spécialisées, pour fournir des services simples, de haute précision et disponibles en permanence. AgriBIT améliore la chaîne agricole en termes d’optimisation de l’utilisation des ressources, d’accroissement de la diversité des cultures sur des surfaces plus petites et de disponibilité étendue des services d’agriculture de précision, même dans des conditions difficiles.
Objectif
AgriBIT aims to increase the precision, accuracy and continuity of services to deliver improved Precision Agriculture (PA) services to farmers, leading to a reduction in costs through decreased use of inputs (water, energy, fertilisers, pesticides), lower environmental impacts and increased production yields. It positions its innovations both at the level of intervention on the field and the capturing of the effects of PA over time, intelligently exploiting the information acquired before, during and after direct intervention on the field.
AgriBIT combines augmented GNSS and EO information with 1) on-field and on-machine sensors and actuators, and 2) expert agricultural knowledge to deliver simple, high precision and continuously available services. It develops and extends advanced Artificial Intelligence algorithms to fully exploit this rich set of inputs to recommend actions to farmers building on past history and present context and to ease their workload through improved automation.
AgriBIT delivers operational services (3 GNSS-enabler services, 8 GNSS-enabled services) and 1 European sourced high precision GNSS affordable receiver that cover the complete value chain of PA, from monitoring to application and precise and automated machinery guidance. With 70% of European farmers active in small to medium operations, AgriBIT’s European sourced high precision GNSS receiver at an affordable price is a major technological and societal contribution to Europe’s farming community.
AgriBIT delivers collaboration services supporting farmers and service advisors, but also 3rd party developers for whom open interfaces are provided both at service level and as channels for advanced Big Data Analytics innovations.
Over 36 months, AgriBIT includes 20 months piloting at 3 locations, 12 months testing of collaboration services and delivers TRL-8 results. AgriBIT involves 5 solution providers (4 SMEs), 1 research centre and 2 farmers cooperatives with 11.250 members.
