Project summary

AgriTime – Smart Farm Management Through Automated Work Data Collection

Sustainable improvement of labor productivity in agriculture is increasingly vital as workforce availability declines and farmers face excessive workloads. This often leads to stress and fatigue, negatively impacting farm operations and profitability.

While digital systems generate substantial production data, much of the daily work remains undocumented. The AgriTime project pilots digital technologies to manage work data and support labor development on farms. The aim is to automatically collect employee-specific data on daily observations, time usage, task allocation, and workload.

Data collection tools include wearable cameras, smart devices, sensors, and speech recognition. AI processes the data into reports for management and organizes observations into reminders or instructions.

The project develops an innovative method for agile work data collection and structuring, supporting farm labor development and documentation. This creates a foundation for data-driven management and commercial solutions, while raising awareness of the benefits of improving work practices.

Led by Työtehoseura ry, with Centria University of Applied Sciences as co-implementer, the project includes three farms in the EIP innovation group. The group actively contributes to planning, piloting, and evaluation. AgriTime is a national EIP project running from January 1, 2026, to December 31, 2027.
