Current information flow


What we need


Poor farmer – interoperability needed

Farm management, the “rich picture” (Sörensen et al, 2010)

What are current research focus and what are
main influence
• Currently research in developed World is mainly focused on
field level, eventually farm level
In practice, it could influenced farm profit in range of 30
percent
• Possibilities to use macro level or external information could
influence farmers profitability in hundreds percent
For example right selection of crops etc.
• So it is evident, that focus has to be in future on work with
external information


Levels of informations


Open Access to Information

• Will support decision farming processes
• Will help increase profitability of farm
• Will help with environment protection
• Will help to government better influence production of food
• So PPP is necessary


agriXchange challenges

• To include ICT and knowledge management for agri-food
and rural communities generally as a vital part of the ICT
policies and initiatives
• To find a balance between food safety and security, energy
production and environment production
• Support better transfer of RTD results and innovation into
everyday life of farmers, food industry and other rural
communities


agriXchange challenges

• To accelerate bottom up activities as a driver for local and
regional development
• Making rural regions as an attractive place to live, invest
and work, promoting knowledge and innovation for growth
and creating more and better jobs
• Build new ICT model for sharing and use of knowledge in
rural regions.


ICT for Agriculture applications vision

• Collaborative environments and trusted sharing of
knowledge and supporting innovations in agri-food and rural
areas, especially supporting food quality and security
• ICT applications for the complete traceability of production,
products and services throughout a networked value chain
including logistics
• New generation of applications supporting better and more
effective management of agriculture production and
decision making in agriculture
• ICT applications supporting the management of natural
resources


ICT for Agriculture applications vision

• ICT applications supporting agri-food logistic – the focus
has to be on the transportation and distribution of food,
sharing online monitoring information from trucks during the
transport of cargo, a flexible solution for on-demand dock
reservation and an integrated freight and fleet
management. In general, all the selected applications have
the same practical benefits as cost reduction, better
coordination and better information for decision making,
and the proactive control of processes leading to increasing
efficiency and effectiveness.
• ICT application supporting rural development and local
businesses
• ICT application for education and awareness


ICT for Agriculture Technological vision

• ICT applications reducing administrative burdens in rural
areas
• Future Internet and Internet of things including sensor
technology, cloud computing and machine to machine.
• Service Oriented Architecture
• Methods of knowledge management
• Semantic models, multilingualism, vocabularies and
automatic translation
• Management and accessibility of geospatial information
• Open Source development
• New modelling
• The power of social networks and social media


FI WARE and COIN vision


COIN platform


Multiple criteria mathematical programming
using maxi-min principle
• In multiple criteria mathematical programming problems,
there is more than one objective function. In case of our
problem, individual objective function will represent profits
in different scenarios.
• Solutions found by solving multiple criteria mathematical
programming are called compromise solutions, because the
most of the problems do not have a solution providing the
best values of all objective functions at the same time.
• It the most of the methods, some additional information
including weights of each criteria is required from decision
maker.
