2022: Agreement for Automation and Digitalization of Agro-Industrial Complex

The company ER-Telecom Holding JSC (TM "Дом.ру") on March 30, 2022 announced cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Bashkortostan.

The main one for signing the agreement was the need to solve priority tasks for automation and digitalization of the agro-industrial complex of the Republic of Bashkortostan. The document will allow interaction in issues of agrometeomonitoring for the sustainable development of the industry in the region.

We understand that it is difficult for the republic's agriculture to develop without the active development of digital technologies, "said Ilshat Fazrahmanov, Deputy Prime Minister of the Government of the Republic of Belarus. - If we introduce and master the "figure" in advance, we will be able to reduce dependence on weather conditions in the industry and significantly increase the efficiency of work.

In the fall of 2021, ER-Telecom and the Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic have already launched a joint pilot project, installing two agricultural stations on the territory of one of the enterprises. The project allows you to demonstrate the operation of equipment, assess the diversity and value of the obtained data for agricultural planning and decision-making.

The weather is changeable, but it can and should be controlled. Observing climatic readings allows you to correctly build the work of an agricultural enterprise, moving from a reactive response model to a proactive one, that is, when it is possible to plan certain work in advance, based on data received from weather stations, "commented Evgeny Norov, head of innovative projects at ER-Telecom Holding JSC.

The Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Bashkortostan is interested in developing joint activities, in addition, it is planned to attract the Bashkir State Agrarian University (BashGAU) to receive additional recommendations based on digital service data.

The agrometeostation project is the starting point for collaboration. We see that we are developing a long-term relationship. We systematically approach the requests for the necessary solutions, and in the near future we will offer the Ministry a number of innovative services for the joint promotion and development of the industry. Our main goal is to minimize the cost of finished agricultural products, obtain an absolute harvest, increase food profitability, "added Evgeny Norov.
