Bio
Marcos Esteve Pamias is a Spanish farmer, mechanical engineer, and full-stack developer leading a cutting-edge precision agriculture initiative on his family's 220-hectare farm in Valdorba, northern Spain. Specializing in wheat, barley, and oats, he integrates advanced technologies to enhance sustainability and efficiency in farming practices.
Marcos transitioned from organic to precision farming in 2017, aiming to reduce environmental impact and resource use. His approach includes:
Drone and Satellite Imagery: Utilizing multispectral drones and platforms like PIX4Dfields and SatAgro to monitor crop health and identify issues such as weed infestations.
Targeted Applications: Creating prescription maps for variable-rate applications of herbicides and fertilizers, leading to significant cost savings and reduced chemical usage.
Real-Time Weather Data: Employing iMETOS 3.3 weather stations to optimize spraying times and improve decision-making based on localized forecasts.
These practices have resulted in a 56% reduction in herbicide costs and enhanced overall farm sustainability. Beyond farming, Marcos contributes to agricultural innovation by developing a virtual fertilization advisor to further optimize nutrient applications.
