Development of field cultivation technology

Final press release
The research and development project entitled “Development of field cultivation technology with plant conditioning” has been completed, with the consortium leadership of Mezőfalvai Zrt.
The project, with a total budget of 1 billion 299 million forints, was implemented within the framework of the Széchenyi Plan Plus program with the support of the Hungarian State and co-financing from the European Union. The amount of the support is 836.42 million forints.

The aim of the project was to develop a crop protection method that is much more adaptable to changing weather and soil conditions. The result of the development was a precision field sprayer and control algorithm that is capable of adapting the spraying method and intensity to the current crop type, weather and soil variables, and the pesticides and conditioners used.
