In his presentation, titled \u201cPlant Protection Issues of Intense Interest,\u201d he noted that the implementation of the European Green Deal is making plant protection more challenging for growers by narrowing their tools. Consequently, the emphasis should shift to prevention. He argued that Producer Groups can effectively manage pests and diseases by adopting Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and Smart Agriculture,&nbsp;thereby maximizing yield with lower environmental impacts, reduced production costs, and high product quality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, he presented&nbsp;AgriDataValue&nbsp;Project,&nbsp;that&nbsp;aims to create a digital platform that integrates real-time data from ground sensors and agrometeorological stations with multispectral images from satellites and drones, supporting machine learning models and smart agriculture applications.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He highlighted that smart&nbsp;agriculture aids crop protection in traditional Greek olive farming by\u202fusing\u202fdata-driven insights\u202fto&nbsp;enable\u202fearly detection and targeted interventions\u202fagainst pests and diseases, thereby reducing reliance on traditional, broad-spectrum pesticides and enhancing overall sustainability.\u202f&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event was attended by more than 350 participants, including advisors, members of the scientific community, and&nbsp;undergraduate and postgraduate&nbsp;students.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The event was held on May 29,\u00a02025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":4787,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"cc_featured_image_caption":{"caption_text":"","source_text":"","source_url":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4786"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4786"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4786\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4788,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4786\/revisions\/4788"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4787"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agridatavalue.eu\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
