46. EU co-funded Projects 2009 and 2010: The Future Farm Project: FutureFarm is a 3 Mio € European project, funded by the EU as part of the Seventh Research Framework Programme . The official project start date was 1 st January 2008, and the project duration is 3 years. The full project title is "Meeting the challenges of the farm of tomorrow by integrating Farm Management Information Systems to support real-time management decisions and compliance to standards“. Project Partners 15 partners, mainly science and research and PROGIS as single IT company are working within the FutureFarm project, spread across 10 European countries, including universities, research institutes and private companies. Pilot Farms There are four "pilot farms" from four different countries, working within the FutureFarm project. Details you read on the homepage http://www.futurefarm.eu/ JRC/European Union contract: „Whole Farm management and information needs at sustainable biomass production “ 2009: PROGIS Conference together with EC INSPIRE and EC EUROGI 2009: DG Development Development Days in Stockholm 2010: Invitation to several EC FP7 projects as well as presentation of our technology at the EC parliament „Deforestation“ meeting
