Agri-Digital Growth is participating in EIMA International 2026, taking place at BolognaFiere from 10 to 14 November.
Visitors can find the project at Hall 37, Stand C/37, where Agri-Digital Growth will present its activities and provide opportunities to learn more about the Precision Farming Knowledge Transfer Ecosystem and the resources developed during the project.
Alongside the Living Lab presentations and the Final Conference, the programme includes a round table on digital irrigation management, a press conference and a session dedicated to education and professional development.
Digital irrigation management: connecting research and industry
On 11 November, from 16:30 to 17:30, the Digital Terrace in Hall 37 will host Agri-Digital Growth Ecosystem: Digital Management of Irrigation.
The round table will bring together representatives of the University of Padua, CREA and the companies Waimee and PlantBit to discuss digital technologies and approaches to irrigation management.
The session will focus on the relationship between research, technological development and agricultural applications, providing an opportunity for exchange between organisations working on digital solutions for the sector.
The discussion reflects the objectives of the Precision Farming Knowledge Transfer Ecosystem, established through Agri-Digital Growth to strengthen cooperation among research institutions, businesses, technology providers and other organisations involved in precision farming.
Through its online platform, the Ecosystem provides access to information on knowledge centres, training opportunities and professional skills, facilitating connections among organisations across Central Europe.
Education and professional skills for digital agriculture
On 13 November, at 14:00, the session Agri-Digital Growth: Presentation of Project Results will take place at the Teatro ComunicAzione, EIMA Extend.
The event will address the digital competencies required by the agricultural machinery sector and the contribution of education and training to technological innovation.
The programme will introduce the Precision Farming Specialist profile, developed to identify the combination of agronomic, technical and digital skills required by farms and agricultural machinery manufacturers.
It will also present the five online pilot courses developed within Agri-Digital Growth, available through the 28DIGITAL learning platform, and the experience of the Call for Talent, which involved students and recent graduates in challenges related to precision farming technologies.
The session will consider the relationship between training and practical experience, including opportunities developed through the project’s Living Labs, where students, researchers and businesses have worked on applications of digital technologies in agriculture.
Sharing project results with the agricultural sector
On 11 November, at 15:00, Agri-Digital Growth will also hold a press conference in the Suite Room, Service Centre, providing an opportunity to present the project’s activities and results to the media and the wider agricultural sector.
The events at EIMA International offer different perspectives on a common objective: strengthening the exchange of knowledge between the organisations developing agricultural technologies, the businesses applying them and the institutions preparing future professionals.
