Great start of the year for Smart Cloud Farming (SCF)! The deep-tech venture and MALTAccelerate succeeded in securing a sizable R&D grant with EIT Digital via joining forces in the C.O.R.E. project.
An advanced deep learning algorithm is being deployed, which reduces complexity and increases speed and reliability of soil carbon monitoring and verification. Learning from satellite inputs, meteorological data and soil datasets, it facilitates, supports, and guides sustainable land management, carbon farming, and regenerative agriculture practices.
The grant will enable SCF to accelerate their R&D and be ready for global sales by mid-year. The EIT Digital support world-class digital DeepTech activities developed by ventures demonstrating market and investor traction and can leverage the program to boost their growth even further.
