The Andalusian Regional Government signs the contract for the Smart Green Cube building project, which will boost R&D&I in fruit and vegetables.

The Andalusian Regional Government has taken a decisive step toward the future of agriculture in the region with the signing of the contract for the development of the Smart Green Cube "Agridomo" building to the company Tragsatec. This innovative center is destined to become a benchmark in research, development, and innovation (R&D&I) in the fruit and vegetable sector.

A reference center for the horticulture of the future

The Smart Green Cube "Agridomo" will not only be a building, but a hub for technological and scientific development for cutting-edge agriculture in Almería . This pioneering center will focus on the digitalization of agriculture, integrating innovative processes that will structure all aspects of R&D&I necessary to drive the agriculture of the future.

Vertical farming and sustainability

Among the many innovations the Agridomo will house, its focus on vertical farming stands out. This revolutionary technique will optimize the use of space and resources, increasing efficiency and production. Furthermore, the building will be a model of energy efficiency and sustainability, establishing itself as a testing laboratory for new technologies in water management, lighting, plant nutrition, and more.

Dissemination and collaboration with AKIS agents

The Smart Green Cube "Agridomo" will also be a fundamental tool for knowledge dissemination. It will act as a bridge between all stakeholders in the Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems ( AKIS ), such as farmers and companies in the auxiliary industry, facilitating the exchange of information and experiences. This center will study crucial parameters for the sector, such as climate and irrigation water management, promoting more efficient and sustainable practices.

Economic and Technological Boost

The construction of the "Agridomo" Smart Green Cube represents a strategic commitment to the future of agriculture in Almería. This center is expected to not only improve cultivation and management techniques but also attract investment and foster economic growth in the region. As a benchmark for technological innovation applied to agriculture, it is expected to position Almería as a global leader in the fruit and vegetable sector.
