Description

NOSTRADAMUS Open Call #1 invites system actors and innovators (SMEs, start-ups, small mid-caps, RTOs, end-user organisations) to design, develop, test, and validate multi-functional, open-source digital applications for farm decision-making and agribusiness.

Selected Third Parties will build upon the NOSTRADAMUS data infrastructure - including multi-dimensional Open Data Cubes, Analysis Ready Data (ARD) Earth Observation pipelines, real-time IoT Observatory streams, and socio-economic datasets - to deliver data-driven tools that optimize agricultural inputs (water, fertilizers, pesticides), improve energy balance, and enhance production resilience in cereal-based agricultural systems.

The call covers 5 designated topics:

Topic 1 (T1): Sustainable crop production and optimisation of cereal-based systems under changing climate and soil conditions.

Topic 2 (T2): Nutrient and soil health management, integrating soil fertility indicators, organic matter dynamics, and precision fertilisation models.

Topic 3 (T3): Water resource efficiency and drought resilience, using Early Warning System outputs and IoT-based soil moisture monitoring.

Topic 4 (T4): Smart and predictive pest and disease management to support the EU objective of reducing pesticide dependency.

Topic 5 (T5): Open topic (integrated, cross-domain decision-support applications combining at least two topics T1–T4).

Awarded Third Parties must participate in a 12-month 4-Sprint program (Training, Design, Development & Validation, Demonstration & Assessment), physically demonstrate their application at 1 primary NOSTRADAMUS pilot site (DE, RS, CH, SI, or CY), deliver at least 1 user training session, release their source code as open-source, and author an EIP-AGRI Practice Abstract.
