Our validation phase has been critical in confirming the accuracy and reliability of our innovative approaches for monitoring food security and safety in Africa. Through extensive field campaigns, remote sensing, and statistical analysis, we have assessed our crop disease models, mycotoxin prediction tools, and the AQUACROP crop growth model. In the following sections we highlight […]

Last week, alongside GMV, we had the pleasure of organizing the round table discussion: “Enhancing African Agriculture through EO Data: Insights from Africultures (H2020), ANIN, and Afri4Cast Projects.” Key Highlights: The round table was more than a discussion; it was a chance for sharing, learning, and envisioning a future where EO data is integral to

AFRI4CAst will participate in the upcoming HAICTA 2024 and the 11th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ICT IN AGRICULTURE, FOOD & ENVIRONMENT that will take place on October 17-20, in Samos Greece with a publication entitled “Development of Rust disease prediction models with the use of satellite derived vegetation indices from wheat and maize parcels in Kenya and Uganda”. AFRI4CAst explores

The EC-ESA Joint Earth System Science Initiative was organized last week in Italy with a special focus on showcasing the latest ESA – EC projects and initiatives as a basis for networking and interdisciplinary science! Stelios Kotsopoulos, of AgroApps joined the event to present the Afri4Cast project and more specifically the modeling platform to analyze climate change impact on

At the “EO for Agriculture Under Pressure 2024” workshop, held at ESA-ESRIN in Frascati, Italy, the AFRI4CAst project was presented, highlighting its innovative approach to enhancing food security in Africa. By integrating meteorological and satellite data, the AFRI4CAst solution drives advanced predictive models that estimate crop yields and assess the risks of mycotoxin formation and

AFRI4CAst participated in the 2024 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium. AgroApps presented work that was carried out in the frame of the project within a publication entitled “SATELLITE DATA FUSION FOR FOOD SECURITY ENHANCEMENT IN TROPICAL AREAS”. AFRI4CAst project is aiming to enhance food security and safety in Africa through advanced satellite remote sensing
