We have completed the third stage of the project!
We have completed the third phase of the operation and submitted the payment request. In this phase, we achieved all set goals, giving us confidence that we will complete the necessary analyses before the next measurement season begins. We conducted detailed surveys among farmers, focusing on data presentation and the UX/UI of the entire system that translates measurement data into fertilizer recommendations. The pilot production allowed us to present the default version of the device to potential customers. They evaluated the implemented improvements suggested in previous stages and the latest system functionalities and prototype versions of the fertilization maps. Thanks to the consortium collaboration and interviews with farmers, we managed to tailor our solution to the actual needs of users. The device has become easier to use and shows significantly fewer errors during data collection. Spatial data analyses have provided interesting insights into fertilization levels and their impact on the final yield. In the upcoming season, we plan to implement more varied fertilization strategies based on this season's findings to maximize nitrogen and dry matter content in the plants and strengthen our computational models.
