The QuantiFarm project focusses on supporting the further deployment of digital technologies in agriculture (DATs) as key enablers for enhancing the sustainability (economic, environmental, social) performance and competitiveness of the agricultural sector. It will achieve this by establishing a framework for assessing the impact and effectiveness of DATs in agriculture and developing innovative tools, services and recommendations for farmers, advisors and policy makers. Following a multi-actor approach, QuantiFarm will build the project activities around 30 Test Cases (TCs) which span over 20 countries in 10 (of the 11) Biogeographical regions across Europe, capturing multiple geo-political and financial settings. All 30 TCs take place in commercial farms of different types, sizes, ownership and operating conditions from 7 agricultural sectors. Different aspects of these TCs will be examined in the context of different work packages (WPs). The TCs’ actors will be engaged in participatory observation activities to offer valuable input and actively support the behavioural analysis (WP1), the establishment of the Assessment Framework (WP2) and the co-design of an innovative Toolkit for farmers, advisors and policy makers (WP3). The lean multi-actor approach will be used in the testing activities to evaluate the QuantiFarm Toolkit and validate the Assessment Framework by testing the various DATs in real life conditions, across 3 iterations/growing seasons (WP4). The outcomes will be transformed into policy recommendations (WP5) and will feed the QuantiFarm DIA that will help build the capacities of farmers’ advisors in DATs. Finally, a WP on dissemination, ecosystem building and exploitation (WP6), will guarantee the wider dissemination and knowledge transfer in a multi-actor context of the outputs of the project. QuantiFarm includes 32 partners, 12 of them representing farmers and advisors.

量化农场项目的重点是支持数字技术在农业领域的进一步应用，作为提高农业部门可持续性（经济、环境、社会）绩效和竞争力的关键推动因素。为实现这一目标，它将建立一个框架，用于评估农业技术评估的影响和有效性，并为农民、顾问和决策者开发创新工具、服务和建议。采用多参与者方法，QuantiFarm将围绕30个测试用例（tc）建立项目活动，这些测试用例横跨欧洲10个（11个）生物地理区域的20多个国家，捕捉多种地缘政治和金融环境。所有30个技术转让发生在不同类型、规模、所有权和经营条件的商业农场，来自7个农业部门。这些技术转让的不同方面将在不同的工作包（WPs）的背景下进行审查。技术合作伙伴将参与参与观察活动，提供有价值的投入，并积极支持行为分析（WP1）、评估框架的建立（WP2）以及为农民、顾问和决策者共同设计创新工具包（WP3）。精益多参与者方法将在测试活动中使用，以评估QuantiFarm工具包，并通过在3个迭代/生长季节（WP4）中测试现实生活条件下的各种dat来验证评估框架。研究结果将转化为政策建议（WP5），并将为QuantiFarm DIA提供支持，该DIA将帮助建立农民顾问在农业发展计划中的能力。最后，关于传播、生态系统建设和开发的工作计划（WP6）将确保在项目产出的多参与者背景下更广泛地传播和知识转移。QuantiFarm共有32位合伙人，其中12位代表农民和顾问。
