Advanced innovative solutions for improved competitiveness and sustainability in controlled environment agriculture (CEA)

Funds AI-driven and automated farming solutions for greenhouses, vertical farms and other controlled environment agriculture, with money for SMEs to test them.

This is a single-stage Innovation Action with an indicative 2026 budget of EUR 12,000,000, expected to fund two projects worth EUR 6,000,000 each. Up to 30% of a project's EU funding can be passed on as financial support to third parties, mainly to involve SMEs in testing and validating the technology, and proposals are expected to reach technology readiness level 6-7.
