About the project

E-SPFdigit is a 36-month innovation action project that will bring novel onsite digital tools already at TRL5 under systemic innovation, which will be further deployed, upscaled, field-tested and demonstrated to TRL7-8, in viticulture and horticulture applications, such as in vineyards and open-field vegetable cultivations, under different conditions, soils, and crops.
