Built on the DADS infrastructure, it connects data from farms, supply chains, public sources, satellites, IoT devices and research institutions. Data is collected, cleaned, structured and prepared for use in AI development, testing and new digital services.
AIDA
AI-Powered Agricultural Advisor
AIDA is an AI-powered digital advisor developed in a close collaboration between the EcoEnVal research group at the Jožef Stefan Institute (IJS), Institute of Agriculture and Forestry Murska Sobota and ITC – Innovation Technology Cluster Murska Sobota, using the Slovenian AI Factory and HPC infrastructure.
Designed for farmers, advisors and agrifood organisations, AIDA helps users understand agricultural regulations, Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) rules, subsidy schemes and compliance requirements through reliable, easy-to-understand guidance.
Powered by a large language model and verified legislation, official guidelines and expert knowledge, AIDA supports informed decision-making and simplifies complex administrative procedures.
AI SERVICES
AI-Powered Decision Support for Agriculture
AI Services combine artificial intelligence, advanced analytics and integrated data sources to support data-driven decision-making across the agrifood sector.
Built on the GEMMA Fusion Suite, the platform integrates data from satellites, sensors, weather services and digital farm records. AI models combine, analyse and process these data to support forecasting, risk detection and decision support for farmers and advisors, transforming complex information into practical insights, maps and recommendations.
COMPLEMENTARY SOLUTIONS

Demo Farms
Co-creating, testing, validating and demonstrating innovative solutions, farming practices and experiments in real farming conditions
DEMO FARMS bring together farmers, advisors, researchers, technology providers and other stakeholders to develop, test and validate innovative solutions in real agricultural environments.
Through pilot activities, demonstrations and practical training, farmers actively contribute to co-creation by providing feedback and adapting innovations to local needs.
TRACEABILITY INFRASTRUCTURE
Farm-to-Fork Transparency and Trust
The Traceability Infrastructure enables transparent and verifiable tracking of products throughout the agrifood value chain, documenting product origin, production, delivery and key product information.
Built on blockchain technology, the solution creates trusted digital records and certificates that support traceability, verification and information sharing across the food supply chain.
LIVING LAB
Co-Creating Innovation for Sustainable Agrifood
The Green Point Living Lab is an open innovation environment and a member of the European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL), where stakeholders collaborate to develop, test and validate solutions that respond to real-world agrifood needs.
Bringing together farmers, food processors, researchers, technology providers and public institutions, the Living Lab ensures that innovations are developed with users and tailored to real-world needs.
GREEN POINT CENTER
Regional Hub for Local Food and Short Supply Chains
Green Point Center is a regional hub in Murska Sobota that connects local food production, processing and distribution through a sustainable and integrated model.
Combining wholesale activities, logistics, service kitchen operations, innovation activities and Living Lab initiatives, the centre serves as a one-stop ecosystem supporting local supply chains, regional food self-sufficiency and circular economy practices.
