5G Smart Farming in Austria: Supporting Green and Efficient Agriculture

In 2022, Huawei launched the innovative 5G smart farming project in Austria, which leverages technologies such as drones, 5G, and sensors to monitor crop growth in real time. This project has not only helped farms greatly reduce their use of pesticides and improve agricultural management efficiency, but also promoted local rural network infrastructure construction. It represents our ongoing efforts to contribute to green and efficient agriculture.

The 5G smart farming project promotes innovative applications and network coverage in rural areas. The farm has won support from the Austrian Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, and Forestry, and received wide acclaim from government officials including the Deputy Federal Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries, and Forestry, the Secretary of State for Communications, and municipal councilors. To share the innovative experience of 5G smart farms with more people and create greater social value, Huawei organized Green In-Sites tours outside China. More than 90 journalists and opinion leaders from over 10 European countries participated in the first tour. They also joined local experts in exploring how to digitalize agriculture in the future.
