Meet Adam – our stakeholder from Poland, representing agricultural advisory services

Adam Fojud from the Wielkopolska Agricultural Advisory Center brings the perspective of agricultural advisory services to PestSpace. His experience highlights the importance of connecting monitoring, expert knowledge and modern services to make relevant information more accessible to farmers and advisors.

“From the perspective of agricultural advisory services, it is particularly important to develop reliable sources of information on crop conditions. PestSpace is advancing solutions that can improve the availability of such data and make it more accessible for the day-to-day needs of farms. The combination of monitoring, expert knowledge, and modern services for farmers represents one of the most important directions for the development of contemporary agriculture.”

 

 

This perspective captures an important ambition of PestSpace: turning data into practical knowledge that can support better crop protection decisions.

By connecting field observations, eDNA diagnostics and AI-supported analysis, PestSpace is working towards earlier identification of plant health threats and more accessible, actionable information for farmers and agricultural advisors.

For PestSpace, engaging with stakeholders is not just about sharing results – it is about understanding real-world needs and shaping solutions together. Their knowledge, experience and feedback help ensure that the technologies developed by the project can translate into meaningful support for everyday agricultural practice.

Because innovation matters most when it reaches the field.
