In the world of agriculture, precision technology and high-tech applications are becoming more and more commonplace.
By precision fishing we mean the development and application of innovative techniques and high-tech solutions for fisheries. These should allow for more and better data collection, more selective fishing with less environmental impact, more efficient operation and management of vessels and fishing activities, and better valorization.

In addition, alternative sensor systems are being evaluated in practice for their precision, technical feasibility and cost. At the same time, practice farms are monitored in parallel.

Main research questionTo what extent can we use sensors and precision farming techniques to map the methane emissions of grazing cows? And how can we reduce those emissions via grazing management interventions? Within the research project 'Grastech' we set out to answer to this question.
Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) technologies to tackle greenhouse gas emissions from grazing cattle.
