As the EIP-AGRI Network has become part of the EU CAP Network, this website will no longer be updated after 1 April 2023. It will remain available in a static form as a reference of all previous EIP-AGRI activities. All interactive features such as the login, the main search function of the website, and the advanced filtering of the databases (e.g. project database and collaborative areas) will no longer be available. You will find all the new and up-to-date information on the EU CAP Network website.

European farmers and foresters possess a wealth of agricultural knowledge. New tools, approaches and technologies can make it easier for them to share their information and expertise, learn from each other, and bring innovation to their farms and benefit from the results. Innovative data platforms, such as VirtualVet, offer services that support transparent and safe access to agricultural data, ensuring that the benefits of data sharing reach everyone in the value chain, especially farmers.

VirtualVet co-founder and managing director Sinéad Quealy believes that farm data are a valuable product, both for farmers and industries.
