The Digital Pilot Farms project focuses on creating a pilot farm network to test innovative plant protection techniques. It aims to make the use of plant protection products (PPPs) more efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly by using a digital tool that provides targeted advice to farmers. This tool is openly accessible to all in Luxembourg, helping farmers better manage pests and weeds in a sustainable way.

Initiative overview
The Digital Pilot Farms project in Luxembourg is building a network of farms to trial digital solutions for plant protection. Its main aim is to reduce reliance on plant protection products (PPPs) by providing farmers with a decision-support tool that delivers targeted advice on weed and pest management. The tool is designed to be openly accessible to all farmers in Luxembourg, promoting wider adoption of practices that are safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly. By testing methods directly on pilot farms, the project hopes to ensure that recommendations are grounded in real-world conditions and can be scaled across the agricultural sector.
