The Cooperation agreement between the Faculty for Information Systems and Technologies, University of Donja Gorica, and the small winery “Rajković” from Ubli, was signed today with the goal of developing cooperation between the private viticulture sector and academy, encouraging and supporting research, scientific and educational activities. The well known vineyard and the wine cellar of Rajković family have a long tradition. The vineyard is located in the village of Ubli. The plan is to use this site for precise viticulture pilot of the DIPOL project for testing the latest IoT technology for precise viticulture and evaluate benefits for small wine producers in the region.
