In the PATH2DEA project (www.path2dea.eu) we think that digitalisation may lead to more sustainable EU food and farming systems, in particular, if digitalisation is combined with agroecology. To elaborate this, we have six showcases of European small-holder farming systems located in different European regions. In our podcasts, we discuss hearing from real life experience by farmers and farm advisors. PATH2DEA is funded under the Horizon Europe program and by the Swiss State Secretariat for Education, Research and Innovation
