#DigitAg

#DigitAg, the Convergences Institute for Digital Agriculture, is one of ten French Convergences Institutes that were funded under the Investments for the Future programme. As the only Convergences Institute dedicated to agriculture, it is also the only one in the Occitanie region, as well as being the first within the I-Site MUSE Montpellier University of Excellence. Led by INRAE, formed in 2020 from the merger of Irstea and INRA, it was established in 2017 by 16 founding members.

#DigitAg conducts interdisciplinary research spanning agricultural sciences, engineering sciences (computer science, mathematics, electronics, physics, etc.) and social and management sciences (economics, sociology and management). It brings together over 700 experts in these fields to produce the scientific and educational foundations necessary for the smooth deployment of digital agriculture in France, Europe and the Global South. #DigitAg is supported by a consortium of 16 public and private partners and 30 research units. The PIA (Investments for the Future Program) provided €9.9 million to fund the project over 10 years (2016–2026).

At the heart of our research activities, we have recruited and will continue to recruit approximately 100 doctoral students to boost knowledge creation in digital agriculture. The innovations resulting from our research will benefit from the support of SATT AxLR.

#DigitAg is also an educational initiative featuring the establishment of a Graduate School — a multidisciplinary cluster of 14 master's and specialised master's programmes — all of which train students for careers in digital agriculture. What sets it apart: Three interdisciplinary specialised master's programmes, a field training site and eight #DigitAg member companies committed to training and hosting students.
