Taking into account the  experience of the Farmers&#8217; Parliament in the implementation of a similar  experiment within the project &#8220;SmartAgriHubs&#8221;, which already evaluates  the measurement data of groundwater sensors at farm &#8220;Vilci\u0146i 1&#8221;, its  owner Arnis Burmistris introduced LIFE CRAFT project leaders with the  installation process of these sensors and meteo stations and also  provided some practical advice. Demo version of the application  developed in SmartAgriHubs project was presented, aimed at providing  more detailed information on plant development and agro-ecological  conditions, as well as helping to forecast the weather for the next few  days, allowing for on-farm planning of operations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The LIFE CRAFT project, in its turn, focuses more on adaptation of  remote exploration monitoring instruments to measure GHG emissions,  which will assist in the evaluation of national policies to reduce  agricultural GHG emissions. The two project partners agreed on further  cooperation in the exchange of information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> #SmartAgriHubs\u00a0 \u00a0#InvestEUresearch\u00a0 \u00a0#FIE_MeteoSensorsWater\u00a0 \u00a0#IampartofSmartAgriHubs <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-852\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22-700x525.jpg 700w, https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/f2fecc7b-31d4-4ac5-a7b8-da9ddd3a4b22.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday, January 21 representatives of the Farmers&#8217; Parliament Maira Dzelzkal\u0113ja-Burmistre, Iveta Grudovska and Inga B\u0113rzi\u0146a, and Arnis Burmistris, owner of farm \u201cVilci\u0146i 1\u201d, met with project managers Maija U\u0161\u010da, who represented the Latvian Fund for Nature, and Robert Rotberg, a representative of the Institute&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":852,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[7,1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/854"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=854"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/854\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":856,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/854\/revisions\/856"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/852"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=854"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=854"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smartagro.lv\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=854"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
