The ALCIS project will cover several aspects of crop management during the production phase in the field. ALCIS will be designed as an integral device that will allow farmers to make decisions and control different variables involved in crop management in real time. The main outputs of this device will be: (i) evaluation of crop aspects such as health, irrigation and fertilisation by using camera systems; (ii) optimisation of resource management (water, energy, fertilisers, etc.) including management algorithms; (iii) crop production traceability improvement using ‘cloud’ systems (data gathering, treatment and storing); (iv) proximal sensing technologies available to farmers with limited resources; (v) robust communication system capable of sending from the field to the office and vice versa; (vi) open system capable of including new tools depending on local scenarios (crop, soil, weather, management, etc.); and, (vii) new models for resource management in agriculture based on real data. The current advances on the project are: field test of a previous communication sensor- software system (BT, Turkey); a wireless soil moisture low-cost sensor network (UNIPA, Italy); prototype low-cost sensors for soil moisture and sunlight analysis tested for lettuce crop (TN, Spain); and, water management models tested in the field for a variety of crops (ATB, Germany).
