Agriculture is facing new challenges to adapt to and mitigate climate change trends and, in order to deal with it, agriculture must modify and innovate methods and techniques. Integration of Conservative Agriculture and Precision Farming techniques have the potential to significantly decrease the environmental impact of crop production and have been tested and evaluated in the framework of a pilot LIFE+ project, named AGRICARE, developed at an experimental site in the Veneto Region. The report briefly summarizes the project results and describes the potential role of new Climate Smart techniques in better managing soils and optimizing input uses to reach the mitigation goals and to increase adaptation.
