BBTWINS

🚜 How are digital technologies optimising peach production in Greece? 🍑 Watch our latest video to see how BBTWINS is helping peach farmers optimise harvest schedules, resources, and revalorise waste at the Rural Cooperative Dimitra in Velvento, Greece. Five key technologies driving this change: 🔹 Waste valorisation (CVR - Centro para a Valorização de Resíduos) – Recovering high-value bioactive compounds from peach skins & pits 🔹 AI & computer vision (Panoimagen) – Optimising production with sensors in the orchards and the warehouses 🔹 Process modelling (CNTA) – Predicting ripening conditions for better sweetness & colour 🔹 Logistics optimisation (VITO) – Boosting transport efficiency from farms to storage 🔹 Digital twins (Soltec Ingenieros S.L.) – Fed by real-life data from the sensors and other technologies implemented, simulating harvests, and optimal storage to maximise quality & shelf life BBTWINS is also implementing blockchain for better traceability (Boostainability by StelvioTech), while LCA & LCCA analysis (#ANGAZTech) highlight the potential for reducing environmental impact and improving financial resilience. CluBE-Cluster of Bioeconomy and Environment of Western Macedonia has been facilitating real-world testing, demonstrating value to food businesses, exploring growth potential, and developing new bio-based opportunities. 📽️ Watch the full video to see these innovations in action! 👇 https://lnkd.in/dnWVbFNT Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU) REVOLVE, Zabala Innovation Spain Christina Blachava Magdalena Jaskiewicz Daniel de la Puente Ranea André Ribeiro Athanasios Lampropoulos Yannis Fallas José Mª Alonso Rodríguez (Cacho) Daniel Prieto Ruben Guisson Annelies De Meyer Javier Becerra Elcinto Rebeca Martínez de Laguna I.

🌱💻 How can digital innovation truly 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀? The digital transition in agriculture isn’t just about new tools—it’s about creating connected 𝗱𝗶𝗴𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗲𝗰𝗼𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 that integrate data, expertise, and technology to support farmers and rural communities. 📢 Join this webinar next week on 𝟲 𝗙𝗲𝗯𝗿𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 to explore insights from the CODECS project and discover how structured data sharing, interoperability, and collaboration can drive sustainable digitalisation in farming. 📅 6 February 2025 | 🕙 10:00–11:30 CET | 💻 Online 🔗 Explore the agenda and register now: https://lnkd.in/dVsHEhH7 Speakers of the event: Serafin Pazos Vidal, gianluca brunori, Doris Marquardt, Cynthia Giagnocavo, Pavel Šimek, Mario Petkovski #DigitalFarming #SmartAgriculture #Sustainability #Digitalisation

What is digital transformation? 🌐 The concepts of digital transformation and "twin transition" are commonly used when discussing the building blocks of transition pathways. As highlighted by the European Commission's publication in March 2024, R&I mappings of the EU's agri-food industrial ecosystem emphasize AI, IoT, big data, digital monitoring systems, and circular valorization as prioritized technologies ready for market uptake.

Artificial Intelligence is not just a tech buzzword—it's revolutionizing agriculture. 💻 🌱 From precision farming and crop monitoring to automating tasks like weeding and harvesting, AI is helping farmers meet the demands of a growing population while addressing the need for sustainability. But alongside the benefits, challenges remain: 🔹 data accessibility and accuracy, 🔹 high initial costs for farmers, 🔹 ethical questions surrounding AI's role in rural communities. How can we ensure these innovations are both accessible and equitable, especially for smallholder farmers? How can AI become a tool for global food security without leaving anyone behind? Check out the article below where experts Jörg Dörr and Josse De Baerdemaeker dive into this intriguing topic.

We wish you a happy holiday season from BBTWINS! 🌟 Enjoy this time with your family and friends, we are looking forward to starting the new year with you in 2025!

📢 The EC's Strategic Dialogue on the Future of EU Agriculture report was published this autumn, offering insights into the role of responsible digitalisation in transforming the agri-food sector. 🌱💻 Point 5.4 outlines a vision for using digital tools—such as smart sensors, drones, and AI—to enhance resource efficiency, transparency, and decision-making across Europe’s food systems. Crucially, it underscores the need for robust data governance, clear rules on data ownership, and ethical standards to foster fairness and trust in these innovations. The BBTWINS consortium looks forward to seeing these recommendations more widely integrated into policy frameworks that fund and regulate the sector, paving the way for a sustainable and digitally smarter future for EU agriculture. 🌍 Check out the report here: https://lnkd.in/eXFbdSzR CluBE-Cluster of Bioeconomy and Environment of Western Macedonia, CVR - Centro para a Valorização de Resíduos , Soltec Ingenieros S.L.
