Objectives

The event is organized by Gamota JR. s.r.o. in collaboration with New Edu n.o. and the Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra. The event aims to introduce farmers and agricultural professionals to cutting-edge irrigation technologies that can help address the challenges of water management in agriculture. It is an opportunity to explore how digitalization can lead to more efficient and sustainable farming. This event is designed for farmers, agricultural advisors, researchers, and anyone interested in innovative solutions for agricultural management. Farmers looking to improve irrigation efficiency, agronomists, agricultural technology providers, policymakers, and students in agricultural studies are encouraged to attend. The event focuses on showcasing advanced technologies for artificial irrigation management, with an emphasis on the integration of IoT sensors, AI, and machine learning to optimize water usage and improve crop yields. The program includes discussions on the challenges of irrigation in Slovakia, and a presentation on how these digital tools can lead to more sustainable farming practices. The event will demonstrate a conceptual framework for the Artificial Irrigation Management Systems, which aims at developing an application for agronomists to automatically determine optimal irrigation doses. This solution is based on the integration of multiple data sources, including data from different soil moisture sensors and meteorological stations and the predictions of recommendations for agronomists about the amount of applied irrigation dose tailored to specific plants and environmental conditions.
