In the PATH2DEA project (www.path2dea.eu) we think that digitalisation may lead to more sustainable EU food and farming systems, in particular, if digitalisation is combined with agroecology. To elaborate this, we have six showcases of European small-holder farming systems located in different European regions. In our podcasts, we discuss hearing from real life experience by farmers and farm advisors. PATH2DEA is funded under the Horizon Europe program and by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation

    PATH2DEA Showcase COEXPHAL, vegetable production in Almería, Spain - featuring Cynthia Giagnocavo

    Welcome to another episode of our PATH2DEA podcast series. This time we take you on a journey to Almeria in Spain, where we talk about fruit and vegetable production, and we look at it in the context of digitalisation. Thank you for joining us or joining again. Agroecology means working with ecosystems, and agroecology combines science with producers’ traditional knowledge. We in PATH2DEA see it as the most sustainable approach to farming. We welcome Cynthia Giagnocavo who is a professor and researcher at the University of Almeria. She is the director of the COEXPHAL-UAL Chair on Horticulture, Cooperative Studies and Sustainable Development. The University of Almeria and also the COEXPHAL association or producer organisations are project partners in the PATH2DEA project, and Cynthia, in addition, has the function of so-called “co-ambassador” of the COEXPHAL showcase farm. PATH2DEA is a European project that is funded under the Horizon Europe program and by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation. PATH2DEA promotes the use of digitalisation to act as an “enabler” of agroecology, as a catalyser, so that European farming systems can move towards more sustainability.

    PATH2DEA Showcase: Pasture cattle farming in Hungary - featuring Anna Gulyas

    Welcome to the sixth episode of our PATH2DEA podcast series. This time we will look at animal farming and talk about pasture based cattle farming and digital technologies available in these agroecology systems. Therefore, we visit our showcase in Hungary, the showcase farm of HORHOS-VÖLGY. We welcome Anna Gulyas,  who is running the farm together with her husband.(please add) as “ambassador” of the Hungarian cattle showcase farms Innovation with the growing importance of digital solutions is considered essential for bringing forward farming and agriculture in Europe. Innovation is needed to benefit the environment, economy, and society. At the same time, digital tools and technologies in many places are also raising new concerns. In the PATH2DEA project, we think that digitalization may lead to more sustainable EU food and farming systems, in particular, if digitalization is combined with agroecology.

    PATH2DEA Showcase: smallholder olive farms in Tuscany - featuring Giovanni Pecchioni

    This time we will talk about small, organic or low-input olive farms in the Tuscany region in Italy and the use of digital tools in these agroecology systems. The PATH2DEA showcase is managed by Aedit and the Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna (SSSA). We welcome "showcase ambassador" Giovanni Pecchioni who is an adviser at SSSA. The SSSA and AEDIT are project partners in the PATH2DEA project. General information on the project PATH2DEA: Innovation in the growing digital domain is considered essential for bringing forward farming and agriculture in Europe. Innovation is needed to benefit the environment, economy, and society as such. At the same time, digital tools and technologies in many places are raising new concerns. In the PATH2DEA project, we think that digitalisation may lead to more sustainable EU food and farming systems, in particular, if digitalisation is combined with agroecology. In the PATH2DEA project, we have six showcases of European small-holder farming systems located in different European regions, to reflect the diversity of farming. There, we explore and discuss digital technologies in terms of use and application in agroecological farming. PATH2DEA is a European project that is funded under the Horizon Europe program and by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation.

    PATH2DEA Showcase Terrena, France - featuring Bertrand Pinel

    The 6 PATH2DEA showcases comprise Agroforestry supported by digital tools in Belgium, livestock farming using sensors in Hungary, smallholder olive farmers applying Decisions Support Systems in Tuscany, Italy; sensors to measure environmental parameters for sustainable wine production in Catalunya, advanced IoT vegetable production in Andalusian greenhouses and TERRENA cooperative in the Northwest of France. Today we visit TERRENA, with more than 20 000 farmer members and more than 13000 employees one of the leading agricultural and agrifood players in France. In 2008, the board of the coop decided to put agroecology on its forefront and Digitalisation is already considered by Terrena teams as a way to enable agroecology long before others. We are honored to welcome Bertrand Pinel, Senior Innovation Manager at Terrena Innovation and ambassador for the PATH2DEA TERRENA showcase.
