Digital agriculture and the CAP

On August 11, representatives of the Farmers' Council (ZSA) met with representatives of the Estonian Chamber of Agriculture and Commerce and the Finnish Agricultural Research Centre (MTTK) to discuss digital solutions that promote efficient agriculture and the new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).

During the meeting, ZSA presented the SmartAgriHubs project, as well as digital solutions that help farmers plan precise crop and livestock production, reduce the amount of raw materials, and track specific mechanization activities that reduce environmental impact and are economically beneficial.

The European Green Deal policy requires farmers to comply with strict environmental regulations, and farmers in Latvia, Estonia and Finland are facing these problems. Therefore, it is in the exchange of experience that it is possible to find examples that can be offered to politicians, civil servants, other farmers, the public, aggressively “green-minded” people and organizations.
