The beta version of the FarmPulse app was created as part of the KlimAlez project and will already be implemented in Mongolia and Uzbekistan in the current vegetation period. Furthermore, the scientists want to investigate which factors facilitate the acceptance of such digital applications in agriculture. In order to do this, extensive data will be collected from the participating farms and households in Mongolia and Uzbekistan. The accumulated data from Mongolia will also be used to measure the impact of the index insurance piloted in the country last year with the support of the KlimALEZ team.
App designed to support farmers in dealing with climate risks
A new mobile application is being developed at IAMO to assist farmers in transition economies with their daily decisions related to crop management and implementation of risk management measures.
