Prof. Abdul Mouazen from Ghent University (Belgium) and a team of collaborators from his precision agriculture project SiTeMan visited the I4S project team at ATB from February 14-15, 2018. SiTeMan is the abbreviation for “Towards Establishing a Center of Site-specific Technology for Soil and Crop Management”. The aim of the project is to establish a research platform that combines state-of-the-art soil and crop sensors, modeling and system control technology for site-specific management of agricultural resources, with the aim of establishing a center of precision agriculture in Flanders.
This project is funded with 3.5 million euros from the prestigious Odysseus grant of the Flanders Research Foundation. Prof. Mouazen is one of the few leading scientists in the field of proximal soil sensors. Proximal soil sensors and a multi-sensor platform form the core of the SiTeMan project. The approaches in both projects, SiTeMan and I4S, are very similar. We had a lively and fruitful discussion. Based on mutual understanding, we have agreed on further cooperation, which includes the exchange of scientists, sensors and soil samples as well as the initiation of joint projects.
