INTEGRATED NOVEL STRATEGIES FOR REDUCING THE USE AND IMPACT OF PESTICIDES, TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE MEDITERRANEAN VINEYARDS AND OLIVE GROVES
INESC TEC and Sogrape, a family company leading the national production and marketing of wines, signed a collaboration agreement for the development of joint Research and Innovation (R&I) projects within the scope of Smart Precision Viticulture, as well as for testing, demonstrating and exploring robotic systems and Internet of Things (IoT) prototypes, in an operational environment.
26th April 2021
INESC TEC's Centre for Industrial Robotics and Intelligent Systems (CRIIS) will develop an innovative robot to carry out the control and maintenance of row and inter-row vegetation in vineyards/olive groves - which will later be tested through a pilot at a longer timescale. The pilot will be carried out under the European project NOVATERRA, which aims to ensure greater food security, promoting the access to healthier food and minimising the impact of the use of pesticides on the environment.
