About
Project/Technology/Expertise Offered
We provide a scalable AI- and big data-driven platform to support agroecological transitions through real-time, multi-scale monitoring and decision support. Our solution integrates UAV, IoT, farm management, and Earth observation data to track indicators of soil health, biodiversity, climate resilience, and input reduction across different agroecosystems. It is designed to empower agroecology living labs with actionable insights for testing, validating, and scaling innovative farming practices.
We have strong experience working with multi-stakeholder consortia, including farmers, agri-tech SMEs, and policy actors, and have co-developed tools in precision agriculture, nutrient management, and sustainable land use under BBSRC, Innovate UK, and EU-funded projects.
Role in the Consortium
We seek to contribute as a technology and data partner, supporting:
-
Deployment of AI tools for monitoring agroecological performance
-
Integration of diverse datasets into living lab infrastructures
-
Development of spatial decision support systems for transition pathways
-
Co-design of user-centric interfaces with farmers and stakeholders
-
Work on digital infrastructure, stakeholder engagement, and sustainability
Type of Partner Sought
We are looking for:
-
Living labs, experimental farms, and agroecology networks to co-deploy and validate tools
-
Research infrastructures focusing on soil, biodiversity, and agroecosystem monitoring
-
Policy and social science partners to assess transition outcomes and upscaling potential
