Description
To promote chickpea cultivation in Spain by providing solutions to the main problems (diseases, weeds) through the use of monitoring technologies, biostimulants and comparing the performance of registered varieties.
Objectives
- To effectively integrate the combined use of sensor networks and remote sensing into a platform for monitoring chickpea cultivation.
- Promote and implement the cultivation of different improved varieties to achieve a better presence in national markets.
- Improve the management of inputs in chickpea farming (water, fertilizers, biostimulants or phytosanitary products) for the different varieties of chickpeas from certified seeds.
- Facilitate the adoption of new technologies by farmers through a transfer plan and integrating farmers in the different stages of the project
Results
- Development of multiparameter sensor devices and remote sensing techniques for crop identification and disease detection, integrating everything into a database and allowing data from sensors installed on the farmer's plot to be accessible through a mobile phone application.
- Development of a new variety of chickpea that improves the quality and management of the crop compared to the variety marketed by S. Coop, Mad, La Garbancera MadrileñaImprovement in the vegetative development of the plant, strengthening its resistance to diseases and pests through the use of different biostimulant productsTeaching courses throughout the project, as well as articles and dissemination at specialized conferences
