R+D+I activities continue around IrriDesk to keep it at the cutting edge of supervision and control in precision irrigation

On going lines of R+D+I:

  • Irrigation strategies aiming at environmental footprints, fruit quality and controlling the crop’s vigor
  • Planning and dynamically adjusting seasonal plans for fertigation
  • Assimilation of assessments of crop development from remote sensing and smartphone cameras
  • Synergies between soil-crop models and Machine Learning inside IrriDesk’s digital twins
