Under the joint coordination of Josephinum Research and the Austrian Chamber of Agriculture, 23 partner organisations, including FiBL Austria, are currently working on the topic of digitalisation in agriculture and forestry.
Over the next four years, and with the support of the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Regions and Water Management, they will work together on practice-oriented issues. Demonstration farms will play a central role in this process, serving as practical platforms for testing digital technologies. The focus here is on developing and expanding digital skills in agriculture by providing broader spatial and thematic coverage. In addition, the economic and ecological impacts of new technologies will be evaluated on the basis of relevant practical examples.
