ICT in agriculture – practical examples in the environment
On 25/04/2023 In 2008, an interesting lecture was held at the Agricultural Mediterranean Faculty on the topic “ICT in agriculture – practical examples in the environment”, and the lecturer was prof. Alma Šećerbegović from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Tuzla. Digitization and application of IT has affected all spheres of society, including agriculture. It is believed that the application of these technologies constitutes the agriculture of the future. This is one of the main reasons that the Faculty of Agriculture, realizing this fact, and thanks to the idea of the VIRAL project, created a new study program with an included IT module in agriculture. At such lectures, students of the Agro-Mediterranean Faculty have the opportunity to expand their knowledge in addition to the already mentioned subjects related to the use of IT in agriculture, and to get closer to the competencies that will prepare them for the labor market. Such lectures are a necessary upgrade of those syllabuses, and provide them with the opportunity to see the application of these technologies on practical examples.
The lecture was attended by students of the Agro-Mediterranean Faculty, and apart from the theoretical part of the lecture, they had the opportunity to learn and practically see the application of ICT technologies in agricultural production. Professor Šećerbegović demonstrated the application of various sensors, and the students expressed their interest in organizing this type of lecture in the future.
