The 10 hectares cultivated consist of a sequence of different techniques for irrigation, insect control, and soil nutrition, with the aim of testing the best solutions in terms of productivity and environmental impact. There is also a 300-square-metre greenhouse for physiology and genetics projects related to grasses with the goal of studying new precision irrigation and fertilisation techniques.
For ML/AI developments in the field of agriculture, it is very important that they can be tested accordingly in practice. And it is precisely for such practical tests that JR is ideally positioned. Located in the central of Austria we have many possibilities to work with farmers in almost all of Austria. Depending on the requirements, different crops can be selected and we search for farmers who have them. Also, we have access to numerous fields for grasslands in Austria. In cooperation with not only local farmers, even more areas and more diverse crops can be tested.
For ML/AI developments in the field of agriculture, it is very important that they can be tested accordingly in practice. And it is precisely for such practical tests that JR is ideally positioned. Directly behind our office building there is a field with 4.8ha, which can be fully used for tests. Depending on the requirements, different crops can be grown on this field. However, this is by far not our only field. We have access to numerous fields and grasslands in Wieselburg and around Wieselburg. In cooperation with local farmers, even more areas and more diverse crops can be tested.
