Digitalization and Climate Change in Agriculture

The IADK organization held two field days for agricultural farmers, with the aim of building capacities in the field of agricultural digitalization and climate change.
Digital technology can help farmers strengthen sustainability throughout the agricultural value chain, increase profitability and reduce environmental impact.
The practical demonstration was carried out on the IADK plot in the demonstration greenhouse, seeing elements of digitalization such as: automatic irrigation controlled through sensors, automatic opening and closing of the side windows and the one at the top of the greenhouse and the demonstration orchard in which different types of fruit trees and small trees were cultivated, where elements of digitalization were placed, such as: irrigation controlled through a “smart phone”, a feeding system through drip irrigation and shading for raspberry cultivation.
Present were leaders of the Ministry of Agriculture, municipal officials, farmers cultivating vegetables and small fruits.
This activity was carried out within the framework of the project “Improving the employment and income generation opportunities in rural areas in Kosovo” funded by the donor BfdW from Germany.
