Have you ever wondered how digital skills and cross-sector collaboration can transform our agri-food sector?

On the SMARTLABOR website, you’ll find:

  • “Skilling up the Western Balkans Agri-Food Sector with Digital Skills” (2024) – practical guides on helping small farmers adopt AI/ML tools.
  • Cross-Sectoral Cooperation & Challenges (2024) – real stories from focus groups about what works (and what doesn’t) when agriculture, government, and civil society join forces.
  • Ethical Considerations & Responsible AI (2024) – why “smart” farming must also be fair and transparent.

All materials are 📥 free to download, replicate, and reuse. Whether you’re a farmer curious about new tech, a policymaker shaping training programs, or a CSO looking to foster innovation, these resources can help.

💬 QUESTION FOR YOU: If you could pick one digital skill or tool that would make the biggest difference for farmers in your community—whether it’s a simple smartphone app or a machine-learning platform—what would it be?
