By 2050, 9 billion people are expected to live on Earth. To be able to feed these people, substantially more high-quality and healthy food is needed, while the available area of agricultural land will not increase. Consequently, there is a great need for more and more sustainable productivity in agriculture and horticulture. To answer this demand, the Interreg project 'SMART GROWERS' focuses on the implementation of 'smart farming' in agriculture and horticulture in the Flemish-Dutch border region. The project aims to investigate and put into practice three smart techniques: an automatic weed control system, an intelligent irrigation and fertilization system, and a remote-controlled sensor system for detecting deviations in crops. These techniques will be applied to three crops that are important for the border region: asparagus, blueberries and avenue trees. Pilot companies will conduct practical tests in at least 8 locations throughout the border region. The collected knowledge will then be widely disseminated to both the agricultural and high-tech sectors, via an online Smart Farming platform. In addition, interested companies will receive guidance through workshops and demonstrations on the implementation of these new 'smart farming' techniques. (English)
