Our research groups often work together and implement new and innovative approaches that produce sustainable solutions to important challenges, especially in agriculture and the water sector. Having 10 Experimental farms where experiments in agriculture and Precision Agriculture are done, around 50% of the MIGAL staff is involved in agriculture. MIGAL is internationally recognized as a hub of biotechnology and agro-innovation. MIGAL forms the basis for a number of agro-innovation and BioMed projects, some are marketed products or implemented projects in agriculture and the water sector.
MIGAL will coordinate the measurement setup for demonstrating the ET4D DMS in Israel in the "northern dairy farm", established in 1994 as apartnership of three entities. The team will provide input on the current connectivity ecosystem and required key performance indicators at the farm, assist with the implementation of suggested measures to improve communication performance and support the techno-economic assessment of communication improvements. MIGAL will in addition, contribute to the questionaire surveys by translating the provided research tools, conducting research in Israel and delivering their results to the WP leader. The team will also provide input for the information assimilation to define scoring schemes and assessment indicators to be used for the data processing for individual interest groups, and it will engage in the dissemination, exploitation and communication of the project.
