Plenary Follow-Up Meeting for the AgrarIA Project

Reunión de seguimiento plenaria del proyecto AgrarIA

In December, Kimitec held a meeting at its offices in Almería for the partners from the AgrarIA project, where those in attendance discussed the current status of their lines of work and the progress made during the first year.

During this plenary end-of-year meeting, representatives for each of the proofs of concept described the advances made on the activities they are leading, which involve research on the use of artificial intelligence for agricultural production, transformation, and distribution.

The aim of this strategic initiative is to accelerate digital transformation in the agriculture and food chain, using a cloud-based technological platform offered by Amazon Web Services (AWS). This will allow launching of initiatives to improve the service for its users and define new agricultural production methods.

Examples of this project’s objectives include developing new natural products to control pests and diseases, applying the concept of digital twins to refrigeration and photovoltaic plants, developing cloud-based autonomous robotics with user interaction via 5G (cloud robotics), and research on the use of quantum computing in satellite imagery management to optimize agricultural production.

The AgrarIA project is funded by Spain’s Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation, through the R&D Missions in Artificial Intelligence Program of the State Secretariat for Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence (SEDIA) (file no. MIA.2021.M01.0004), using funds from the country’s Recovery, Resilience, and Transformation Plan.
