The Open Hardware movement of the Arduino platform enables access to and dissemination of knowledge, skills, and tools, generating tangible value for its communities of belonging. In the agricultural sector, the ability to build and customize one’s own tools according to specific needs has increased farmers’ autonomy. This process has also contributed to generating collective value through the sharing of experiences and practices (in line with an open logic), strengthening the sense of community.
The workshop was organized together with a rural community to identify the real needs of native grain production and to develop a replicable prototype that takes into account social and environmental impacts.
The aim of the working sessions was to define the design phases of precision agriculture solutions capable of responding to the needs of small-scale high-quality farming, combining open-source hardware expertise with the knowledge of traditional land stewards and the most advanced approaches to participatory plant breeding.
