Survey: What are the benefits of digital tools for farms?

Enable agroecology through digitalisation – the aim of the European project Path2DEA, in which FiBL Switzerland and FiBL Europe are involved. The project team surveys the use of digital tools aimed at agricultural producers active in agroecology or organic production as well as producer organisations or advisory services.

By taking part in the survey, people working in the agricultural practice can contribute their experiences to the project. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete.

Every voice counts: Practical experience is essential when it comes to further developing digital tools. All businesses interested in the topic of ecology and sustainability are invited to participate in the survey. Certification is not a prerequisite. Digital tools in agriculture are versatile: from precision farming to the use of digital media for research. Experiences of people who hardly use digital tools are also important.

The answers will be treated completely anonymously and confidentially. The survey is open until 31 August 2023. The results will be available on the Path2DEA website in January 2024

The European Path2DEA project aims indeed to enable agroecology through digitalisation. It will support stakeholders (advisors, technology providers and policy makers) to favor the practical development of digital tools for agroecology. The project is co-funded by the European Union and the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation (SERI).

Joelle Herforth-Rahmé from FiBL will be happy to answer any questions.
