Agroecology and digitalisation

27 July 2022 - Agroecology as well as digitalisation have both been acknowledged as indispensable by the EU Commission in meeting the objectives of the Farm to Fork Strategy. The question arises if and under what conditions agroecology and digital technologies are compatible. Tisselli and Hilbeck (2022) have used the FAO’s 10 elements of agroecology as a framework to formulate 10 principles of “ICT4AE” – ICT for Agroecology. These principles and the example of the smartphone app Ugunduzi show how agroecology and digitalisation can be compatible. However, all depends on the way digital technologies are integrated into food and farming systems.

Therefore the PPP domain require an evaluation of current data infrastructure and its associated design patterns.
