Event Category: Field demonstration

Event Date: 28 June 2022

June 28, 2022 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the ARVALIS experimental station - plant institute, rue de Foreste, 02590 - VILLERS St CHRISTOPHE

The INNO-VEG project aims to accelerate experimental techniques using new R&D technologies in potatoes but also in field vegetables for the benefit of researchers and farmer-researchers. The project, which ended this year, after 4 years of fruitful collaboration, is rich in results and lessons that we would like to share with you during a day dedicated to potato phenotyping. This face-to-face event will be an opportunity to review the results of the INNO-VEG project on the use of different types of sensors and vegetation indices and to demonstrate these innovations to you.

Objective of the webinar :

• Promote exchanges between the various agricultural actors (farmers, technicians, researchers, economic actors, companies) around the theme of phenotyping in potato cultivation
• Present an overview of the results of the INNO-VEG project and future work envisaged

Unfolded :

• reception 9:30 a.m.
• indoors: 10 a.m. – 12 p.m.:
• Introduction and presentation of the INNO-VEG project
