The industry 4.0 sensor platforms, originating from the now-concluded Sense-T project, provided valuable opportunities for participating farmers to evaluate the effectiveness of various monitoring and sensing technologies. This project aims to assist farmers in comprehending their future needs and gathering feedback on their experiences with these technologies. This will enable researchers to formulate recommendations based on a systematic analysis of farmers' input. Emphasis will be placed on participating farmers' understanding of their needs and available options to satisfy these through knowledge-sharing and fostering collaboration among farmers, researchers, and commercial service providers. By emphasizing farmer’s participation and collaborative development, this project will help inform researchers, and extension ag service providers to identify true need and best available technologies to promote to combat the challenges posed by climate change.
