DREAM: Driving Research for Enhanced Agriculture with Machine Learning

Brief description

Agriculture is a key component of the primary sector of the economy and an essential activity to ensure the provision of food for people, particularly important in difficult times. With DREAM (Driving Research for Enhanced Agriculture with Machine Learning) we aim at the development of data management methodologies and test machine learning approaches to predict the phenological state of plants (fruit crops). Our final goal is to foster a suitable behavior of farmers regarding the actions that they should perform in order to prevent pests from spoiling the crops but at the same time optimize the use of treatments (avoiding unneeded treatments, which could lead to environmental and economic damage with no benefit).

The expected contributions to the agriculture sector can help to achieve SDG number 2 ("End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture"), by ensuring the sustainability of farmlands and by providing predictions during crisis periods like virus outbreaks.
