Message from EFITA President
EFITA, after more than 20 years of presenting and disseminating the cutting edge on advances in ICT systems in agriculture, has to cope with its own context, the digital era. Thus, EFITA undertakes the challenge of organising the successor of 12 successful physical Conferences, at a digital form this time. I would like to invite all EFITA people to be part of this project and expand together the boundaries of our knowledge on digital agriculture.
Yours sincerely, The EFITA President, Prof. Dionysis Bochtis |

Welcome Message
The European Federation for Information Technology in Agriculture, Food and the Environment (EFITA) and the Section VII (Information Technology) of the International Commission of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering (CIGR) would like to invite you at the first EFITA International online Conference in 2021. As a way to keep the momentum and engagement of our society, while maintaining the plans for the 2022 physical EFITA conference, this conference and its format are planned as a response to the unpredictable situation created by the COVID-19. This event is an opportunity to bring together engineers, scientists, technicians, academics and industry people in a new way to exchange knowledge, ideas, to present innovations and to discuss the state-of-the-art and future use of ICT in the agri-food sector and bio-resources production sectors.
Yours sincerely, The Conference Chairman, Prof. Claus Grøn Sørensen |
