„FOOD Quality in Digital Age” network visited Serbia!On...
We are happy to announce that the 3rd study visit within...
The aim of this project is to facilitate the digital transformation in agriculture in general, and food production in particular, in the V4+ region (Visegrad countries and Serbia) by integrating expertise and experience of five regional Universities – each adept at a certain digital food quality evaluation method – and opening this network to cooperation with local & regional stakeholders.
Fairer & greener agriculture is one of the key objectives of cooperation among Serbia & Visegrad countries, vital not only from regional but also European point of view. Both have a very large production potential in agriculture, as evidenced by, i.a, the amount of agricultural land, number of animals, economic & labor force. Agricultural techniques that are economical, productively, socially and environmentally sustainable are on high demand, especially today when, given the war in Ukraine, the issues of ensuring food security in Europe become especially pressing. Digital technologies have the potential to revolutionize agriculture by helping farmers & food producers work more precisely, efficiently and sustainably. However, the uptake of new technologies lacks robustness and varies along the food supply chain. So far, the application of precision agriculture was mainly directed to the beginning of food chain and adopted by the farmers. We believe that there is a need to extend these practices to food production companies. To make it possible V4+ region needs a dynamic professional research & innovation network that will facilitate & accelerate the digital transformation in agriculture adjusted to regional conditions & leveraging regional potential.

The project will build a professional network of educational institutions in the field of digital food quality evaluation solutions and support mobility of PhD students and researchers to share best practices, exchange knowledge and improve the regional ecosystem for innovation in the field.
A particular focus will be put on involving regional business into cooperation with academia. The project will help accelerate the adoption and maturation of ICT in the agri‐food sector. The consortium gathered in this proposal, thanks to the complementary potential and expertise of its partners, will:
As a result, the consortium will provide support to regional agri-food sector by gathering, sharing and showcasing up-to-date methods of evaluating food products with greater (digital) precision and enabling precision food production according to consumer preferences.
