The topics were addressed by experts in precision agriculture, who presented the latest advances and projects developed in the region on: Remote sensing for agronomic management; variable dose fertilization; variable dose drip and sprinkler irrigation systems, as well as the potential use of soil and plant sensors for irrigation. To deal with these issues in detail, the presentations were given by professionals from companies such as Agrisat Iberia and Parcitank, as well as researchers and professors from the PAFyC Research Group (Agroforestry and Cartographic Precision) of the University of Castilla-La Mancha and CIDE -CSIC (Research Center on Desertification).
