"Due to climate related changes, longer dry periods for European farmers and without irrigation the risk of a volatile harvests will rise, that is the reason for a tendency across
Europe to irrigate fields. The need for innovative irrigated systems is to minimize water consumption and costs. Also in times of limited water the project will be lucrative.

Uncertainties in water availability, rising fertilizer and energy costs and increasing demand for renewable raw materials impose serious challenges on the primary sector with far-reaching implications. Irrigation practices put more and more pressure on scarce freshwater resources and mineral fertilizers are often overused leading to environmental problems and heavy impacts on the production costs of producers. Increasing resource efficiency, productivity and competitiveness of agricultural practitioners are crucial for addressing the aforementioned societal challenges.

New tools have to be developed to mitigate emissions of greenhouse gases and adapt to impacts of climate change with
respect to the interfaces of water, land use and biodiversity due to water saving techniques, technology development of
innovative mapping and plant growth monitoring systems. SenSOP-II aims are to provide this tool for advanced smart
farming operations and water and energy saving techniques.

The project intends to commercialize an integrated precision farming service model in the cloud to increase farming productivity and profitability in a sustainable way. Today, the majority of farmers manage their crop by gut feeling, leading to inappropriate fertilization, plant damage and unnecessary environmental impact.

This phase 2 proposal targets the pilot application and market introduction of AgriCloud, a cloud-based precision farming (PF) management system for more efficient, sustainable production of crops in Europe.
The objectives are:
final technical development,
product demonstration through field trials with six pilot customers,
market launch in five selected EU countries and
market replication leading to a turnover of 28 m € within 5 years after launch.

Current technologies for access to Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANs and MANs) are often unsuitable for large scale distribution in an agricultural environment.
The use of these communication networks for connecting automation and remote control devices for irrigation systems allows registering and distributing water by means of several technological tools provided by digital electronics.
