Precision Agriculture Technologies (PATs) are providing a great potential in alleviating adverse impacts arising from climate change. This study evaluates the decision-making process of farmers regarding the adoption and implementation of PATs in potato agricultural cooperative in Northern Greece. For this purpose, a bio-economic model utilizing mathematical programming techniques was designed and applied to three different farms producing Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) potato of Kato Nevrokopi. The proposed model aims to incorporate the existing management methods of farming systems and their associated characteristics. Its objective is to analyse the aspirations of farmers to adopt new practices, considering agronomic, environmental, and policy limitations. Special focus was paid to two distinct scenarios: (a) subsiding PATs adopters or (b) penalizing the non-adopters. Results indicated that subsidy provision 594–650€/ha would have a greater impact on PATs profitability. Lastly, based on the results, further explanations of incentives towards promoting the adoption of novel practices, ensuring the long-term viability of agricultural systems, are proposed.

促进卓越或阻止平庸——精准农业技术采用的政策框架评估



精准农业技术(PAT)在减轻气候变化带来的不利影响方面具有巨大潜力。本研究评估了希腊北部马铃薯农业合作社农民关于采用和实施 PAT 的决策过程。为此,设计了一个利用数学编程技术的生物经济模型,并将其应用于生产 Kato Nevrokopi 地理标志保护 (PGI) 马铃薯的三个不同农场。所提出的模型旨在结合现有的农业系统管理方法及其相关特征。其目标是考虑农艺、环境和政策限制,分析农民采用新做法的愿望。特别关注两种不同的情况:(a) 补贴 PAT 采用者或 (b) 惩罚非采用者。结果表明,594-650 欧元/公顷的补贴将对 PAT 的盈利能力产生更大的影响。最后,根据研究结果,提出了进一步解释促进采用新做法、确保农业系统长期可行性的激励措施。
