our story.

SmartCloudFarming started as a project of three university graduates in Berlin/Germany, in 2018. Their aim: make use of earth observation to make agriculture productive, resilient, and sustainable.

Over the next twelve months many changes and challenges followed: The focus settled on soil health and productivity, and the initial project team of three was reduced to just one.

During this challenging period, Michele Bandecchi guided SmartCloudFarming forward by building a new team, generating visibility, and being accepted to the prestigious Copernicus Incubator.

In 2019, SmartCloudFarming was selected by Indigo Ag as one of three European semifinalists for their global Terraton Challenge.

Today, SmartCloudFarming’s new and growing team is supported by an international team of specialist collaborators and experienced mentors.
