Can you invent new ideas for the more extensive use of satellite technologies in agriculture to improve production, efficiency, profitability and to reduce environmental impact?

The aim of the competition is to promote the use of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) in agriculture and its benefits to end users. Registered individuals or teams can contribute new ideas and innovations, particularly those relying upon European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service (EGNOS) and the forthcoming GALILEO system.

Entries can be about any type of agriculture in any part of Europe. You don’t need to be a satellite specialist to take part. And you don’t have to be a farmer! But the idea you come up with must apply to agriculture, food production or land use, and it must use satellite services to provide benefits.
