AgrifoodTEF: Testing and Preparing Reliable AI and Robotic Technologies for the Market
In Danish
Project period: 2024 – 2027
The project is supported by: The European Commission
The Danish Technological Institute provides testing and experimental facilities, as well as knowledge and expertise, to ensure that AI and robotic technologies are tested, verified, and prepared for the market. This enables development, optimization, and the sustainable transition.
Artificial intelligence holds significant untapped potential to modernize and optimize the agricultural and food sectors while improving our society. For example, AI can help reduce energy consumption, minimize the use of pesticides, and optimize cultivation processes.
However, achieving this demands thorough testing and development of safe and reliable AI and robotic solutions.
Danish companies seeking to develop new AI technologies for the agroindustry can now receive support from the Danish Technological Institute through the EU collaboration AgrifoodTEF.
Who can participate?
AgrifoodTEF is available to AI and robotics companies in the agroindustry across Denmark and Europe.
The Danish Technological Institute provides testing and experimental facilities, as well as knowledge and expertise, to ensure that new AI technologies are tested, verified, and made market-ready. As a participant, you gain access to the Danish Technological Institute’s advanced equipment, where you can test your technologies.
AgrifoodTEF allows companies to save development time and costs while minimizing risks by having their AI and robotic technologies tested and validated by experts at the Danish Technological Institute’s robotics laboratories and under real-world conditions.
The goal is to accelerate the development of reliable and safe AI and robotic technologies in Europe.
The Danish Technological Institute’s European network makes it possible to work and test across borders without compromising quality, enabling companies to learn independently and in collaboration with others in the industry.
About AgrifoodTEF
AgrifoodTEF is a European initiative where various testing and experimental facilities (TEFs) are being established across Europe from 2023 to 2027. Currently, 34 partners from 9 countries are part of AgrifoodTEF.
AgrifoodTEF is one of four major testing and experimentation facilities, with AgrifoodTEF focusing on the agroindustry and five key sectors: agriculture, forestry, horticulture, livestock, and food processing. The other three TEFs cover smart cities, healthcare, and manufacturing.
