Its goal is to inspire young people to engage with STEM subjects and provide them with hands-on insights into modern technologies and sustainable solutions. <\/p>\n<p>At the heart of the project is the FarmBot \u2013 an intelligent<strong> raised-bed gardening robot<\/strong> capable of sowing seeds, watering plants, removing weeds, and supporting the harvesting process autonomously. Through this innovative system, students gain valuable insights into how digital technologies and automation can be applied in agriculture and how they contribute to a more <strong>sustainable future<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<p>Last Thursday, the FarmBot was delivered to NMS Horitschon and successfully put into operation. <strong>Apprentices from BECOM<\/strong>, together with NMS Horitschon, were responsible for assembling and implementing the system. The FarmBot is now ready for use in everyday school activities, giving students the opportunity not only to learn about innovative technologies in theory but also to work with them in practice.  <\/p>\n<p>The project uniquely combines education, technology, and sustainability, creating an engaging learning environment where future-oriented topics become tangible and accessible. We are proud to be part of this initiative and to contribute, together with our project partners, to fostering technical skills and supporting the next generation of professionals. <\/p>\n<p><u><strong>Project Partners:<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.buz.at\">BUZ Neutal<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/nms.horitschon.at\/\">NMS Horitschon<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vs-marktstmartin.at\/\">St. Martin Primary School<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pannatura.at\/\">PANNATURA<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/burgenlandenergie.at\/de\/privat\/\">Burgenland Energie<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.redsoft.at\/\">Red Soft<\/a><br \/>\nBECOM[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_gallery interval=&#8221;3&#8243; images=&#8221;2022,2023&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What does the future of agriculture look like?
