1 Executive Summary
The purpose of the current deliverable is to set the dissemination strategy that will be followed and
elaborate on the project’s dissemination activities that will be executed throughout the duration of the
project.
Dissemination and stakeholder engagement is crucial to the success of FATIMA. This document provides a
description of the FATIMA dissemination strategy and elaborates how this strategy will be locally applied to
the pilot areas. The FATIMA consortium recognises that dissemination activities are an essential and
pervasive activity throughout the project’s life, and thus they will be integrated within all its work packages.
This dissemination strategy describes the project’s dissemination objectives and measures for achieving
them throughout the duration of the project. It defines and prioritises the key objectives of the project’s
dissemination, identifies the main target groups and the reasons for which we want to reach them, and sets
the expected results (Chapter 3.3). Moreover, it identifies and prioritises dissemination tools (Chapter 5)
and activities (Chapter 6), elaborates the procedures of monitoring the dissemination impact (Chapter 9),
and defines timelines for the planned dissemination activities for the first year of the project.
The D6.3 FATIMA Dissemination Strategy has been elaborated with the purpose to be the main frame of
reference for FATIMA project partners on their promotion and communication tasks. Evidence from similar
initiatives tends to confirm that unless dissemination is built in from the beginning it does not happen.
The FATIMA D6.3 Dissemination Strategy is delivered at an early stage (M9), however it will be treated as a
‘live’ document and will be updated on annual basis plus ad-‐hoc when necessary to assist project
consortium as well as individual partners maximize the impact of their dissemination actions.
2 Context
The intensive crop production sector in Europe is facing the challenging task of finding the direction
towards a sustainable future. Intensive irrigated agriculture is a major pillar of global and national food
security and often the only driver of rural economies, while it is also the largest water consumer and a
major soil and water polluter. More sustainable crop management strategies as well as new incentives and
policies for ensuring the sustainability of agriculture and ecosystem services will be crucial in order to meet
the demands of improving yields without compromising environmental integrity or public health.
The challenge for sustainable intensive crop production is to achieve optimized yield, both in quantity and
quality, and farm income with a minimum of inputs (nutrients, water, but also energy, pesticides,
herbicides, money), while conserving the environment. There is still an important potential to increase
quantity and quality of crop production per surface unit in intensive production systems (irrigated and
rainfed). The key to improving crop production efficiency and reducing its environmental impact is in fine-‐
tuning the management of variability, both in space (geographic location, topography, soils) and time
(climate, weather, phenological growth stage). FATIMA project will provide tools and strategies for
managing space-‐time variability of farm inputs.
7 | 77
With FATIMA the farmer is placed into the center of operations in a complex web of multiple actors:
external factors (agri-‐business sector environment, public opinion on agricultural activities and resource
use), drivers (market, seeds, global trade, policies, transport, product commercialization), site-‐specific and
personal characteristics (farm size, soils, agro-‐eco zoning location, infrastructure, machinery, human
resources, expertise), resources inputs and outputs (labor, money, energy), all requiring decisions to be
made in real time (how much to fertilize/irrigate where and when) and in careful planning cycles at long
range (e.g., crop rotation, selection of crops and seeds, cropping systems, farming systems).
Farm Advisory Services have been proposed at EU and national levels, and Agricultural Extension and
Irrigation Advisory Services in various configurations have been established over large-‐scale areas in many
countries. On a smaller scale, fixed or mobile ground-‐based sensor networks and intelligent machinery have
been deployed in precision farming systems. The technological capabilities are in place to couple and
integrate all these efforts at the local and at the large scale.
The overall objective of FATIMA project is to establish innovative and new farm tools and service capacities
that help the intensive farm sector optimize its external input management (nutrients and water) and
productivity, with the vision of bridging sustainable crop production with fair economic competitiveness.
The project will be implemented through the achievement of the following specific objectives:
Multi-‐actor community platform and prosperous farming community. To strengthen and empower the
user community by setting-‐up and maintaining a multi-‐actor participatory process in all pilot areas, which
puts the users in the driver’s seat of development and piloting.
Integrated EO-‐and WSN-‐assisted toolsets. To develop Earth observation (EO)-‐and wireless sensor network
(WSN)-‐assisted pre-‐operational tools and services for effective and efficient precision farming and agri-‐
environmental management.
On-‐farm nutrient management. To review the sustainability potential of state-‐of-‐the-‐art soil and crop
management and cropping systems and to optimize and fine-‐tune nutrient management at subplot to plot
scale and beyond.
On-‐farm water management. To optimize and fine-‐tune irrigation water management from subplot to
irrigation scheme scale.
Pilot demonstration and validation. To validate and demonstrate the tools and services in a set of pilots
(representative for a wide range of intensive crop production systems: cereals, potato, corn, rape,
vegetables, vine, fruit) and prepare their sustainable operation.
Sustainable policy framework. To analyse relevant policies for synergies, conflicts and feedback loops and
to develop a set of indicators that allow for characterizing an enabling environment and design innovative
policy instruments for sustainable crop production.
The challenge for sustainable crop production is to achieve optimized yield (in quantity and quality) and
farm income with a minimum of inputs (nutrients, water, energy, pesticides, herbicides, labor, money),
while preserving and protecting the environment and social fabric. The focus is on nutrients and water,
while maintaining an integrated perspective of all factors. The approach and concept of FATIMA project is
based on five interconnected levels for optimizing external nutrient inputs and water management namely:
a) On a technology level, b) On the ground / in the field, c) Working with people in a multi-‐actor
participative environment, d) On an economic level, and e) On a policy level.
Finally the innovative FATIMA toolsets, practices, and frameworks will be implemented and demonstrated
in eight pilot areas that represent a wide range of European intensive crop production systems: Spain
(irrigated and rainfed wheat, corn, onion, and vine), Italy (tomato, fruit, wheat, corn, sugar beet, vine),
Greece (Cotton, vine, wheat), Czech Republic (winter and spring barley and wheat, triticale, corn, oilseed
rape), Austria (sugar beet, vegetables, potato, winter cereal), Netherlands (potato, sugar beet), France
8 | 77
(wheat, tomato, corn). We also include a pilot in Turkey (accession state and important food producer for
EU) with tomato, wheat and corn.
3 FATIMA Dissemination Strategy

One of the main elements which are crucial for the successful implementation of FATIMA project and the
sustainability of its main outcomes is the dissemination of the project results and marketable products to
well-‐defined target audiences. Also, in order to ensure maximum awareness, information and participation
of stakeholders in the pilot activities, a structured and targeted dissemination strategy is essential to be
developed, aiming to maximize impact, involved throughout the whole duration of the project, from its
design stage to its completion and sustainable outcomes. Such a strategy will contribute to the main
objective of the project and is being done through the interaction with all partners. The main aim of
FATIMA dissemination strategy therefore is to communicate properly FATIMA scope, objectives and
outcomes to its target groups and audiences, and finally to engage to its activities a wide spectrum of
stakeholders.
The FATIMA dissemination strategy has been planned and drafted from early project stages. Starting early
usually increases the impact of dissemination since experience from other projects has shown that the
approach of leaving dissemination until the final year of the project is not functional as it fails to allow time
for actively engaging users and finding ways of generating a feeling of ownership amongst those people and
groups to whom you wish to disseminate and make an impact. Another distinct characteristic of a
successful dissemination strategy is maintaining quality in every step of the strategy.

3.1 Dissemination Methodology

The key for a successful dissemination strategy is the application of a dissemination methodological
framework which is essential to FATIMA project due to the need to provide the consortium with a common
dissemination process model and a set of common criteria, with the purpose to identify, monitor and select
the suited dissemination channels. Effective dissemination can be defined as that which engages the
recipient in a process of increased awareness, understanding or commitment and action. Having articulated
clearly exactly what the project will be disseminating and who the target audiences/groups are, it is also
essential to consider what benefits the outputs/outcomes of the project will have to offer. Nothing
interests a person more than offering a potential solution to their particular problem so the essence for
successful dissemination strategy will be to actively engage users and deliver what the users both want and
need.
Initially, the project requires its potential audience to be AWARE of its aims and objectives. Then they will
become interested enough to wish a more detailed UNDERSTANDING. Involvement in both of these two
stages will provide the basis for dissemination for ACTION. This dissemination methodological concept
leads to three distinct types of dissemination.
a) Dissemination for Awareness. This is the minimum dissemination that can be achieved by making a
broad range of people to be aware of the work of the project. This particularly useful for those target
audiences that do not require a detailed knowledge of the project but it is helpful for them to be aware of
the project activities and outcomes. Creating such awareness for FATIMA project will promote the “word of
mouth” dissemination type and help in building an identity and profile within FATIMA community.
9 | 77
b) Dissemination for Understanding. Moving a step further the Dissemination for Understanding seeks to
approach those groups/audiences that need to be targeted directly with specific dissemination. Such
groups/audiences will be identified because they can benefit from what the project has to offer and
therefore it is important that these groups/audiences have a deeper understanding of the project’s work.
c) Dissemination for Action. When a target audience adopts products, materials or approaches offered by
the project this change of practice is referred as “Action”. Such groups/audiences are those people that are
in a position to influence and bring change within their organisations. These are the groups/audiences that
need to be equipped with the right skills, knowledge and understanding of the project work in order to
achieve real change.
Another basic pillar of the dissemination strategy methodology is the direct involvement of all the
members of the consortium in the dissemination processes especially the ones responsible for pilot
implementation (Regional Teams). All project partners must feel a sense of ownership of the project and
must be involved at all stages of the strategy’s development. It must be ensured that each consortium
member has responsibility for a particular aspect of the strategy’s implementation but also a shared vision
and common understanding of what has to be disseminated together with a way of describing this to the
audiences outside of the project and who may benefit from the project work. This sense of ownership and
team working on the project is called upon to take part in various activities that will bring FATIMA project
to the attention of as many relevant people as possible.
The FATIMA dissemination concept follows the community model of interconnected technical and social
learning. Disseminating in a variety of ways that suit the needs of the target audiences and varying the
dissemination media, tools and activities increases the chances of the strategy success. Creative new
approaches will be pursued aiming at attracting the interest of a large audience. Such approaches include a
range of selected communication methods, dissemination tools and actions. Tools include among others
the development of the project logo, website, deliverable templates, press releases, newsletters and
printable promotional material (leaflet, brochure, posters etc). Social media and networking groups
(Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn) will be used as far as possible since the degree of connectedness to social
media of the project stakeholders differs greatly from one country to the other. Moreover dissemination
tools to be used include promotion through visual media and mass media in collaboration with local TV
professionals in each area but also by developing Pilot Stories on video, some of which will be accessible on
the internet. Furthermore Dissemination actions to be taken include among others the development of the
Network of Interest, writing scientific publications and the participation in relevant events.
Further dissemination methodologies to be used in the project are in themselves generating maximum
dissemination effect when being implemented and used by our local communities. This will be enhanced
with the innovative use of stakeholder community mapping provided by WP1.1. It is envisaged that this will
strengthen the commitment and cooperation of FATIMA stakeholders such as farmers or water managers
by means of advanced participatory approaches, starting with the innovative use of stakeholder community
mapping. This will be one of the tools to help create contagious commitment among farmers and water
managers as we consider this an essential part of our work “on the ground”. In this context we also put in
practice some elements of the Tipping Point concept, by e.g., actively seeking out and supporting people
who can act as “connectors” within and beyond their community.
Users who come from a wide variety of backgrounds, but the great majority of them are interested in
“gadgets”/tools of Information and Communication Technologies that can provide benefits in the daily
management. So they are ready, or even eager to try out new tools related to their daily work, provided
that these tools are cost-‐efficient, intuitive and easy to use. Therefore, technology is a key entry point for
social and technical learning (that are both necessary to bring about the much needed paradigm change in
crop production and farm management). This process is contagious: one farmer (or one Farmers
10 | 77
Association) starts using a new toolset and soon his/her/their neighbour wants it too. This is actually how
the Snowball technique will be used to create a powerful community process of technological innovation
within a dynamic participatory environment therefore enhancing the impact of dissemination.
Also, it has to be noted that the dissemination strategy a dynamic document that will be constantly revised
throughout the project lifetime while dissemination activities will start at the beginning of the project
developing the project website and releasing dissemination material (M6) and will also continue till project
end. In FATIMA, the dissemination the project results are embedded throughout the Work Packages for
maximum impact, while also having WP 6 dedicated solely to all aspects of dissemination, exploitation, and
communication with the mission to disseminate the project activities and results in creative ways, to open
markets for FATIMA products, and to raise awareness on the potential benefits of EO for sustainable food
production in the wider community.
Finally, it is crucial to ensure the sustainability of the dissemination strategy so that the knowledge
developed within the project continues to exist beyond the life cycle of the project. Dissemination and
exploitation beyond the project lifetime will be part of the roadmap for sustainable implementation
developed in WP5. Aiming to form a network in which the agricultural sector will become familiar with the
new system and will cope with the challenge of more sustainable and higher productivity with the
minimum impact on natural resources, FATIMA’s knowledge will be made accessible to stakeholders
through various channels and in creative ways.
3.2 Objectives
The core objective of FATIMA Dissemination strategy is to fulfil the need to disseminate the concept,
methodologies, pilots and outcomes of the project to particular community or communities of target
audiences. This will only be achievable and successful if, from early project stages, every member of
project consortium has a shared understanding of exactly what it is you want to disseminate and why.
The main objectives of the dissemination are:
To raise awareness and provide high visibility of the project and its results among the target groups.
To ensure the presence of a critical mass of actors participating in the pilot activities.
To encourage involvement of stakeholders.
To raise awareness of policy makers and public bodies.
To gain acceptance and trust of the audience by opting for tailored and personalized messages,
providing balanced information from different channels and by promoting dialogue and
transparency within the project.
To facilitate synergies with similar or complementary initiatives.
To ensure transferability and scalability of results by raising awareness about the FATIMA project
results to other regions / stakeholders.
To create a favorable reputation and competitive advantage of the project and its solution.
To make the application advantages known to the agricultural community.
To promote, implement and spread the use of the service.
To transfer scientific results of the project to relevant communities.

3.3 Expected results

The expected results of the FATIMA dissemination strategy are:
The awareness raising about the project activities, informing the target audiences and the general
public about the existence and progress of the FATIMA project. This will be done mainly during the
initial stage of the project and actively supported by the dissemination tools. However, also during
the whole lifetime of FATIMA project, the consortium will create publicity of the project to attract
potential future stakeholders and ensure maximum impact.
The explanation to the target groups which benefits the project provides and how the results can
be exploited.
The promotion of active participation in the project, e.g. via the attendance in the project
workshops enhancing the links to other projects and stimulating the participation in the FATIMA
External Expert Advisory Board.
4 Target groups and audiences

The FATIMA project has a diverse range of target groups and audiences that it intends to contact, attempt
to influence or serve. Some groups will be the targets of internal communication and information while
other target groups are to be found outside the project. This section of the strategy will address the
appropriate audiences and the dissemination tool or action for contacting and communicating with these
groups. The identification of target groups by the dissemination strategy has to be widened in order to
define who the potential stakeholders are, and must not be narrowed down only to base predominantly
within their immediate circle of experience and where they know they are likely to be well received.
The target groups for the FATIMA project are still being identified and this is therefore an evolving list.
Currently the target audiences include:
Farmers and farmers’ associations all over Europe and beyond,
Rural communities,
Irrigation water providers, river basin managers
Water or agricultural management authorities of regional or national level,
Irrigation management systems solution companies,
Environmental/ agriculture consultancy and software companies,
Agribusinesses, fertiliser and plant nutrient management industry,
Chambers/ associations/ clusters of the abovementioned companies,
Agricultural research institutes/ networks/ associations,
Agricultural educational institutes/ networks/ associations,
Regional/ national/ European (agricultural or not) authorities,
Social networks about sustainable agriculture,
Research networks and initiatives of similar context,
Mass and social media,
General public and civil society.
The above target groups can be further categorised into four major categories. This categorisation provides
a grouping of the target audiences and therefore enhances the effectivity of approaching these groups and
narrowing down dissemination in order to define the appropriate dissemination tools and actions, the
12 | 77
communication objective, the key messages to convey and finally the potential benefit they will have from
FATIMA project.
Category 1 includes Farmers and farmers’ associations, rural communities, environmental and agriculture
consultancies and relevant IT solution companies, irrigation management solutions companies and other
agribusiness related companies and chambers, associations and clusters of the abovementioned
companies. This category includes people who are work actually on the field and they are in close contact
of what production process is. This category will have a central role in the project since they are the
potential users of FATIMA project assets and they will be the ones to receive the direct benefits of FATIMA
solutions which are increased yields and less spending on inputs. Members of this category can be
approached with info-‐days, local workshops, printable promotional material, Video stories, social media
and by the website.
Category 2 includes the ones who take decisions and provide funds such as Politicians, Policy makers,
Sponsors and other regional, national and European authorities. Category 3 can be approached with a
targeted brochure, video stories and a short demonstration of what FATIMA project provides. Their
potential benefit is that that they receive and have access to innovative tools that can help them save funds
and resources while being able to resolve any arising conflicts.
Category 3 includes agricultural research and educational institutes, networks and associations, the
scientific community, other research networks and initiatives of similar context. They are the ones who
provide and distribute knowledge. Members of this category can be approached through scientific
publications, conferences and science workshops, posters and scientific results presentations,
demonstrations in pilot sites while their potential benefits include the access to high quality scientific data
and results.
Last, Category 4 includes the ones who distribute information such as mass and social media, the civil
society and the general public. Members of this category can be approached with a selection of
dissemination tools such as a media kit whereas the general public can be reached with printed
promotional material, video stories, social media accounts. The potential benefit of this category is the
saving of funds and valuable natural resources but also food production security.
The following table summarises the 4 main categories of target groups, the suitable dissemination tools and
actions, the objective of dissemination, the key messages to convey and the potential benefit the category
is going to have from FATIMA project.

5 Dissemination tools
The following sections describe the dissemination tools that will be used within the context of the FATIMA
dissemination strategy. These tools can be further specified after consultation with local partners and in
relevance to the specified priorities on local level.
5.1 FATIMA Logo

As with every European project, the project’s logo is the dissemination tool that aids and promotes instant
public recognition while it defines the visual and graphical identity of the project as a whole. The logo also
14 | 77
communicates the uniqueness of the project and expresses its objectives. In order to design the logo of
FATIMA project, a group of expert professional graphic designers were employed. The initial idea was that
the logo is meant to represent the concept of FATIMA project as a whole which is sustainable agriculture.
After the production of several prototypes the following logo was selected:

Figure 1: The FATIMA logo
Symbol: The symbol of the logo is quite clear and straightforward. It illustrates a human hand holding three
plant leaves which actually can be conceived as a hand sustaining a plant therefore referring to sustainable
agriculture. Furthermore the symbol of the logo is accompanied by the project’s acronym along with the
full acronym explanation in smaller letters.
Colour: Since colour is the key element in logo design, the hand was painted with three different shades of
brown referring to the soil that holds the plant, while the three leaves were painted in light blue, light
green and green symbolizing water and plant growth. The small letters of the full acronym were painted
with the same colours as the symbol.
Finally, the logo is the core image of the project as a whole and it must and will be used in all graphic
material and documents related to the project. It must be noted here that the logo of FATIMA project is an
intellectual property of the project’s consortium and any use for other purposes is discouraged and
prohibited. A copy of the EU emblem and a text stating that the project has received funding from the
Horizon 2020 programme will be included along with the logo in any dissemination material including the
electronic ones. This emblem is available from the EU at the link: http://europa.eu/about-‐eu/basic-‐
information/symbols/flag/. The EU emblem accompanied by the abovementioned text will be added as
follows:

Figure 2: The EU emblem
“This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme under grant agreement No 633945”
5.2 FATIMA Slogans and mottos

In order to transmit a coherent message towards the target groups, FATIMA will be linked with a catchy
slogan as a mean to draw attentions. An initial motto can be “Produce more with less”. However more
slogan and mottos will be produced during the course of the project in all project languages and in relation
with the context of each pilot area. Other mottos developed by the project team are the “Retrieving and
15 | 77
Integrating Data from Multiple Information Sources”, “Monitoring crop environment” and “Monitoring field
reality”.
5.3 Project templates
5.3.1 Deliverable Template
For the needs of the production and writing of the project’s deliverables, 51 in total -‐ public and
confidential, a deliverable template has been produced in an MS Word file using a certain style. The
purpose of such a template is to have a consistent and recognizable layout for the project’s deliverables.
The deliverable template has a cover page that displays the logo in a prominent position, the number and
name of the deliverable, working package and lead authors while at the bottom of the page there is a clear
information message on the funding that the project received along with the display of the emblem of the
European Union as required in the Article 29.4 of the Grant Agreement.
Furthermore, the second page of the template contains at the bottom, a disclaimer that excludes the
responsibility of the European Commission for any use that may be made of the information contained in
any deliverable as required by Grant Agreement Article 29.5. In the same page a copyright message is
displayed in order to protect the originality of any produced content within FATIMA project. Furthermore
the second page of the deliverable template contains a table with the document related information and a
table with the document history while the forth page is reserved for the tables of contents and figures. The
first, second, third and fourth pages of the template remain static, do not change and contain only the
information referred above. The footer of the template contains the EU emblem and the project logo.
Also, the project template uses a distinctive custom colour pallet for table headings and other general use.
The RGB pallet colours used can be customized manually in MS Word. The colours are:
Table 2: The colours of FATIMA project
Colour R G B
Brown 178 129 79
Blue 0 160 227
Green 166 199 36
Last, the FATIMA Deliverable template uses the Calibri fonts, which are a humanist sans serif typeface
designed by Lucas de Groot. Calibri fonts features subtly rounded stems and corners that are visible at
larger sizes. The use of one font type for all deliverables makes the template distinctive, increases its
originality and helps to promote a uniform template image, a fact that increases the dissemination quality.
The standard template formatting is as follows:
Document body (Normal): Calibri 11, Paragraph: 6pt after
Heading 1: Calibri Bold 20, Brown colour
Heading 2: Calibri Bold 18, Blue colour
Heading 3: Calibri Bold 16, Green colour
Spacing: Multiple 1,1pt
It has to be noted that the deliverable template can be updated during the course of the project but the
idea colours and fonts will remain the same.
16 | 77

Figure 3: FATIMA Deliverables template
5.3.2 Presentation template
Same as deliverables a FATIMA Project Presentation template has been created using MS PowerPoint. The
presentation template uses the same graphic identity guidelines as the deliverables template in order to
facilitate the recognition of the project. The presentation template will be used in all events and meetings
where FATIMA results and activities are presented. The template will be updated if needed during the
course of the project. The FATIMA and the European Union emblem have also been added in each one
slide.

5.4 FATIMA Website

The FATIMA website serves as the project’s main dissemination tool and will be updated on a regular basis.
The FATIMA website goal will be twofold. First, it will be used as a management tool among the project
partners by offering access to all documentation and deliverables produced in the course of the project
(FATIMA Partners’ area). Second it will be used as a dissemination tool among the FATIMA interested
audience by providing information on the project’s activities, progress and outcomes (Public section). A
separate deliverable (D6.4) of FATIMA project is about the project’s website and contains further technical
details and provisions.
Furthermore, the website will advertise the project to relevant stakeholders such as farmers, farmers
associations, rural communities, agribusinesses and the general public. The technical realization of FATIMA
website has been the product of collaboration among several professionals in the field such as graphic
designers, web developers and media experts. The current version of the FATIMA website follows the
project´s graphical identity and presents a project overview, including objectives, project partners and the
activities proposed within the project. The FATIMA web presence serves as a central point of entry to all
public materials, such as public deliverables, reports, newsletters, informational material (brochures,
leaflets, and posters), presentations and promotional videos developed as part of the project.
Since the FATIMA website will be the core communications hub of the project, it has to support at least the
languages of involved partners and pilot countries. For that reason the website will be available in Spanish,
Italian, French, Czech, Greek, German, Turkish and English. The website multilingualism is particularly
important in order to maximise the dissemination impact. The website translations will be done using the
WordPress Multilingual Plugin1 which has been installed for this reason.
Also the FATIMA website has been designed taking into account specific provisions and requirements
related to obligations to the EU, gender and target groups/stakeholders. The first version of the website is
available in the following web addresses www.fatima-‐h2020.eu and www.fatima-‐project.eu. The first
address is the primary address of the project while the second just automatically redirects to the first one.
During the course of the project, the website will be constantly developed while additional areas will be
added. Also the structure and especially the content of the FATIMA web site will be subject to modification,
updated with news, diagrams, graphic material, other info, downloads and links. Website activity will be
monitored using Google analytics, a tool that helps to analyse visitor traffic and gives a complete picture of
the website audience and their needs. Google analytics will be used in order to improve website quality and
to evaluate the website use as a dissemination tool.

Furthermore, the FATIMA website will contain a Partners area. This is the most important page of the
FATIMA website in terms of workflow and the progress of the project as a whole. This page is not publicly
available and it appears in the menu bar after the user has completed the login process. Access to Partners
Area will be granted upon request to registered consortium members, European Commission, and Advisory
Board members. The Partners Area includes all the information that project partners need for keeping up
with the project work. The first object displayed is the TeamUp project calendar that includes all dates for
project meetings, external events, public holidays, team members on holiday and on travel.
Also the Partners Area includes all email distribution lists, templates for deliverables and presentations, FTP
access credentials, further photographs and videos and all the finalized deliverables (Public and Private).
Last within FATIMA Partners Area the Document Revisions WordPress2 plugin has been embedded in order
to enable the project partners to collaborate on documents while allowing document version control.

5.5 FATIMA QR Code

A QR code has been created in order to allow mobile users to quickly access FATIMA website. The QR code
will be included in different types of dissemination material, such as printed leaflets and posters, in order to
raise public awareness on the project and increase user engagement.

Figure 6: FATIMA project QR code.
5.6 Email account and email lists

For the needs of official communication, the main email account of FATIMA project has been established.
The address is info@fatima-‐h2020.eu. This account will be included in all used dissemination tools, such as
the project website, social media accounts, printed material etc. DRAXIS, as the coordinator of the project,
will be responsible managing of this account, while enquiries, comments, and information will be
forwarded by DRAXIS to project partners if necessary.
In addition, several mailing lists have been established for associate partners, stakeholders, for those with
other broad interests in the project, and for potential FATIMA output users. These mailing lists are
accessible via the FATIMA website for self-‐registration. Opportunities to participate, project updates and an
electronic copy of the newsletter, will be sent out to these lists to maintain contact with the community
throughout the project. Also each partner is encouraged to develop and maintain an email list related to
the partner’s country of origin and field of interest.
The mailing lists are managed by DRAXIS SA, using MailChimp application. MailChimp was selected since it
offers a plenty of advanced reporting options that can be accessed from anywhere. Materials to be
distributed to these lists should be sent to DRAXIS SA. The sign up form for all of the mailing lists, including
the FATIMA Newsletter, can be accessed at the homepage of FATIMA website.
5.7 Social media

In order to complement the FATIMA web presence and to increase the project’s dissemination capacity, the
use of social media and networks was pursued. Contemporary social media are a suitable, innovative way
to boost the imminent dissemination of the project’s methods and results but also a creative new approach
to attract the interest of a large audience and to enhance stakeholder engagement efforts3,4. Social media
will be used as far as possible since the degree of connectedness to social media of the project’s
stakeholders differs greatly from one country to the other. Last but not least, most of social media
platforms provide services for measuring and analyzing user traffic and interaction thus providing a way to
evaluate the effectiveness of the dissemination strategy.

Currently, FATIMA has active Facebook and LinkedIn pages, Twitter, Google+ and YouTube accounts which
are directly linked to the project’s website. All social media accounts and pages are managed by DRAXIS SA,
the project partner responsible for all dissemination activities.
For the beginning of the project social media presence will be used primarily as a dissemination channel for
news, events, information about the project. However it is expected the as the project evolves, results and
stakeholder experiences will be shared and publicized.
5.7.1 Facebook page
The Facebook page of FATIMA project can be found in the following link:
www.facebook.com/FatimaH2020project. Access to Facebook page is also provided in the homepage of the
website.
The official language of the page will be English; however there is no restriction in the use of other
languages especially the ones from the pilot areas. The Facebook page displays at a prominent position the
number of Facebook users who “liked” the page content and provides tools for comment, picture, and
video uploading while there is a calendar option to publicize upcoming events or meetings. Facebook page
has been established be DRAXIS SA staff and it is possible that as the project evolves additional page
administrators will be assigned from the rest of the project partners.
DRAXIS will be the administrator of the Facebook page. The administrator’s role is to manage all aspects of
the page including messages dispatch and publication of posts, confirmation of posts and comments,
assignment of page roles. Moreover, since other partners have the potential to promote the page to a wide
network of stakeholders, they will also be added as editors. The editor has the same roles with the
administrator except for assigning Facebook page roles. Additional editors may be added during the
development of the project.
The page will be open to everyone to follow. A brief description of the project will be added to the FATIMA
Facebook page in order to inform the general public about the objectives of the project. The links to the
FATIMA website will be also displayed in the FATIMA Facebook page.
The page will be shared to various directions in order to maximise its popularity. More specifically, it will be
shared to:
Targeted Facebook groups
Other Facebook pages that project partners manage
Partners’ Facebook accounts etc
Pilot partners will be asked to take advantage of the dissemination channels to which they have access, in
order to raise awareness at local/ regional level in areas where user engagement is a priority.

5.7.2 Twitter account
The FATIMA Twitter account will be used as a primary feed for disseminating projects’ news and
announcements and to promote project activities, particularly attendance of events, meetings,
conferences. DRAXIS SA staff will have the account’s editorial control, however, each project partner, as
well as any Twitter user, will be able to add links to announcements using the FATIMA hashtag and make
retweets. Twitter activity will be measured through follower counts for the project account. Additional
statistics will also be available via the new Twitter Analytics service (https://analytics.twitter.com/about/).
Twitter account: @Fatima_H2020
22 | 77
Preferred hashtag for project tweets: #Fatima_H2020

Figure 8: FATIMA Twitter account homepage
5.7.3 LinkedIn group
LinkedIn is the world’s largest professional network with over 225 million members. It is a business-‐
oriented social networking service and differs from other social media since it is mostly used for
professional reasons. FATIMA LinkedIn group has been created and managed by DRAXIS staff. The group
will be used, will be mainly used for building up a professional network with experts and other groups in
the fields of Sustainable Agriculture, Precision Agriculture, Agriculture & Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV)
and Water Technologies.
In this social network, LDA can raise awareness about it among the target-‐groups as many are registered
here. However, as attracting people to a given group might be difficult and very time consuming, due to the
large number of groups available, the strategy of LDA concerning LinkedIn is to post information and news
in different already establish groups focusing on the topics approached in the project. Thus, the following
groups are considered as relevant:
The FATIMA LinkedIn group name is “FATIMA H2020 Project”.
23 | 77

5.7.4 Google+ page
A Google+ page has been established in order to provide a clear central profile to associate with the
FATIMA YouTube presence and any further Google tools which can be adopted. A link has been made
between the Google+ Page and the main FATIMA website in order to provide more effective search results
for those looking for the FATIMA Project.
It is envisioned that initially YouTube videos will provide the main content for the Google+ page, but this
will be extended to additional updates. Automated posting to Google+ from the FATIMA Twitter account
will be investigated as this would provide a simple mechanism for project partners to contribute or have
their contributions recognised on this page.
The link to the FATIMA Google+ page is:
https://plus.google.com/u/1/100338633224289227184/about/p/pub
24 | 77

Figure 9: Google+ page screenshot
5.7.5 YouTube Channel and Audiovisual productions
For the needs of FATIMA project a YouTube Channel has been established and managed by UCLM and
DRAXIS. It will be used as a media channel for the distribution and sharing of audio-‐visual material that will
be produced during the course project including presentations, promotional spots or other videos
associated with the project.
The link to the FATIMA YouTube channel is:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCarlVpG4VN2GZe5xlkCCYDw
Stories play a special role in attracting a wider audience of heterogeneous backgrounds and transmit
powerful messages. As noted in the project proposal, videos of pilot stories will be created in order to
illustrate the context of farming in pilot areas and the development of the current paradigm of intensive
crop production, as well as capturing the vision of stakeholders of a sustainable future. A communications
professional company will be employed to make audio-‐visual production of the FATIMA stories.
Furthermore, short introductory videos of FATIMA project will be produced. All produced audio-‐visual
material will be uploaded and be accessible on FATIMA YouTube channel.

5.7.6 General rules for social media use
The FATIMA website, will remain the Project’s primary online source for information. Social media will be
used to complement the website’s information and broaden the reach of messages through multiple
channels. No confidential information will be posted to any social media under any circumstances.
Comments containing any of the following shall not be allowed and will be removed by social media
accounts managers:
Comments not topically related to the particular site or article being commented on.
Profane language or content.
Content that promotes, fosters or perpetuates discrimination on the basis of race, creed, color,
age, religion, gender, marital status, status with regard to public assistance, national origin, physical

Sexual content or links to sexual content.
Conduct or encouragement of illegal activity.
Content related to advertising or promotions.
Information that may tend to compromise the safety or security of the public or public systems.
Content that violates a legal ownership interest of any other party.
5.8 Project newsletter

A short, regular newsletter is a key dissemination tool to inform relevant target audiences and will be
produced and circulated appropriately every six months consisting of brief articles and updates from across
the FATIMA work packages and partners. The FATIMA newsletter will be circulated in electronic form
26 | 77
through appropriate email lists and be available as a PDF files via the project website. Paper copies may be
printed if needed for distribution to stakeholders, community members or attendees of special events.
The newsletter will provide a route to communicating key updates about the project and a mechanism for
relevant stakeholders to be kept informed and engaged with the project between initially indicating
interest and the roll out of deliverables. Content for the newsletter based upon reports filed by partners on
events attended; key updates on development; presentations, workshops, and demonstrations delivered;
reports, publications and media interest. Partners will be contacted by DRAXIS for these contributions
and/or for their approval of news items. The newsletters template can vary according to the subjects
covered, but the cover page will follow the FATIMA project graphical identity clearly identifying the project
as being part of an EU-‐funded programme and including the project logo.
Some of the topics that will be addressed by the FATIMA newsletters are:
Presentation of the project (1st issue)
Announcements of the project’s progress in brief articles
News from the pilot cases
Dates, details, comments regarding project related conferences, meetings, events or publications.
In order to engage as many stakeholders as possible, the FATIMA partners are encouraged to distribute the
newsletters to their contacts who may be interested in the project. Apart from this, interested parties can
subscribe to the newsletter on the project’s website. The newsletters template, presented in ANNEX D –
Templates and printable promotional material, follows the FATIMA project graphical identity and clearly
identifies the project as being part of an EU-‐funded programme.
5.9 Promotional printable material (target group tailored

dissemination documents)
5.9.1 Leaflet
Leaflets are a simple means of informing the different audiences of the purpose, progress or findings of the
project. Leaflets can address general project issues since they will be printable in-‐house and will allow a fast
replication. Leaflets will be editable and printable by any of the project partners, and therefore, will be
tailorable both in terms of content and language. In order to raise awareness of the project even at the
initial stage, the consortium has created a first version of a leaflet to be distributed through all partners to
any dissemination event they participate in. The paper size of the leaflet will be A5 and special folding and
cutting will be applied. For the initial needs of the project 1000 leaflets will be printed. They are also
available for download from the project website. However, pilot partners are strongly encouraged to
translate the leaflet in their language and distribute it to the pilot sites in order to maximise engagement.
The leaflet will be circulated by email or printed and distributed at events. The initial version of the FATIMA
leaflet is included in the current deliverable in ANNEX D – Templates and printable promotional material.
5.9.2 Brochure
The project brochure will be one of the main promotional materials of the project, to be delivered and sent
to the various stakeholders, allowing a fast understanding of the project’s aims, activities, pilots and
expected results. The brochure will be in A4 size and will have multiple pages. It is a more official document
and will contain more information and graphics than the leaflet.
27 | 77
5.9.3 Poster
Posters are dissemination means that are mainly used in events that can be either organised by the project
or can be external conferences, symposia, workshops, seminars or others in relevant domains. Such posters
will be provided as necessary. Among others, the FATIMA poster will include the following main items:
FATIMA Logo – Slogan – Key Words
EU emblem and statement of the EC funding
Links for the project website and FATIMA QR code
Eye catchy images to attract attention.
The initial version of the FATIMA leaflet is included in the current deliverable in ANNEX D – Templates and
printable promotional material.
5.9.4 Info factsheet
The info factsheet will be a single sheet printed A4 (one or two sided depending on the amount of text)
paper containing information on the project as a whole but also can contain and analyse specific parts of
the project e.g a Work Package fact sheet or a factsheet dedicated to serve a specific audience. The main
difference with the leaflet is the layout. Different fact sheets will be produced during the course of the
project and will be available in the website. The factsheet will be disseminated in formal events (e.g.
workshops, conferences, etc.) in order to inform all relevant stakeholders about the key points of the
FATIMA project. The factsheet will be also available in an online version through the FATIMA website.
5.9.5 Press release template
The press release is the most important form of written information that must be sent to journalists and
other media, and it must be issued at the start of all projects or when a major milestone of the project has
been achieved. The FATIMA press release template includes elements such as the purpose of the project,
the beneficiaries, and also the results achieved so far. It also incorporates the EU logo and mentions that
funding was provided by the EU. If a press conference is planned, the press release must include the name
of the person who will be present at the press conference, if appropriate. A press release template leaflet is
included in the current deliverable in ANNEX D – Templates and printable promotional material.
5.9.6 Media Kit
The media kit is a pre-‐packaged set of promotional material of the project for the purpose to be distributed
in the members of the press and media. Media kit is not a distinctive dissemination material itself. For
FATIMA it will include a conference folder, a leaflet, a factsheet, the latest newsletter and a USB stick.
5.9.7 Branded and Promotional Items
Branded and promotional items of FATIMA project are products that aim to maximise the dissemination
efforts of FATIMA project and also to act as gifts to selected stakeholders. These include Ball point pens /
pencils, T-‐shirts, Hats, Conference folders, Notepads and USB flash drives. T-‐shits and hats will be
distributed to farmers while USB flash drives will be distributed including the project deliverable and other
material at the end of the project. Promotional items must be distributed when specified in the
communication strategy of a project (usually only for major projects). All kinds of promotional items (such
as T-‐shirts, caps and pens) can be produced by implementing partners or contractors as supporting material
28 | 77
for their information and communication activities in the framework of their programme and/or project.
Photos of branded and promotional items are included in the current deliverable in ANNEX D – Templates
and printable promotional material.
6 Dissemination Actions
The following sections outline the dissemination activities envisioned to be carried out in the scope of the
FATIMA project.
6.1 Multi-‐actor community

FATIMA follows a people-‐centered approach, in line with the multi-‐actor concept. In order to form a strong
alliance of users and other key stakeholders, we are setting up interconnected multi-‐actor community
platforms in each pilot area. A dedicated Workpackage (WP1.1) has been established for this purpose. This
includes physical meetings (“Regional Meetings” every 6 months), access to the central webGIS hub (as a
participatory information-‐sharing tool) and groups in social media. At the core of it are the Core Users, i.e.
those local users that collaborate in the FATIMA tools and services design and evaluation throughout the
project. Each platform is coordinated by a Regional Manager.
The multi-‐actor community platform will also act as a main dissemination pole for the engagement of
further stakeholders with the aim of transforming them into actors.
The overall aim of the multi-‐actor community platform is to foster a strong collaborative multi-‐actor
partnership/community with a sense of co-‐ownership and responsiblity of/for FATIMA tools and to create
the enabling environment for implementation, market uptake, and sustainable financing. This includes
setting up a participatory process focused on assessing major sustainability issues in the pilot areas aimed
at promoting the engagement and cooperation of all actors in the development of a shared vision for
sustainable crop production. This activity spans communities from the local level (Core Users groups) to
international networks (like EIP operational groups).
6.2 Mass Media communication (TV, radio)

Obtaining news coverage, whether at a national or local level, can increase the profile of the project at a
great extent and reach a very wide body of people. The main target is journalists, related TV/radio shows,
columns in newspapers.
The scope of the mass media communication activities will be to inform the general public through mass
media about the FATIMA project, to obtain news coverage at a national or local level, in order to increase
the profile of the project and reach a very wide body of people. These activities will target a wide variety of
news agencies and mass media with general or specialised interests, individual journalists with a special
interest FATIMA related topics, related TV/radio shows or columns in newspapers. The FATIMA consortium
intends to disseminate the FATIMA project through TV and radio channels, web media, and newspapers
and magazines -‐ either printed or electronic ones. Such a channel is the official web portal of the European
Commission (http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm) that reaches a wide audience and provides
information on EU-‐funded research. Through this website information on and links to the FATIMA project
will be accessible to the general public, the research community, policy-‐makers and the media. EurActiv
(http://www.euractiv.com/) is another portal to which posts relevant to the FATIMA project will be
29 | 77
uploaded. EurActiv is an independent and multilingual EU policy portal that targets mainly the community
of EU actors: EU institutions, industry and unions, non-‐governmental organisations (NGOs), media,
countries, regions and cities.
Only selected information will be published in mass media, and the information will be presented in a clear
and accessible format for people of all educational levels.
Mass media will be fed through the following dissemination tools:
press releases
audiovisual material that will be uploaded at YouTube channel
project results and newsfeed that will be available at the project’s website
audiovisual or printed material with information about the FATIMA meetings
project’s presentations and partners’ interviews that could be performed during the organisation of
targeted events or participation in non-‐project events.
In order to avoid discrepancies among the information that will be communicated in mass media from the
project partners, the DRAXIS the project partner responsible for dissemination is going to prepare an
indicative interview template. The FATIMA partners are encouraged to disseminate the FATIMA project
through mass media on a regular basis. However, the official contact with the mass media will be held by
DRAXIS through the official email account of the FATIMA project.
Press conferences will be given only after such decision has been made by the Project Board and
Coordinator. An indicative list of mass media active in the countries of the project partners is presented in
ANNEX E – Mass Media and News Agencies.
6.3 Press releases

The press release is the most important form of written information that must be sent to journalists. Press
releases will be prepared in English. However, all partners are encouraged to translate them in their native
language. Where the implementing partner launches the press release it should liaise with the Project
Coordinator and the partner responsible for dissemination before sending it out. The press release will
include elements such as the purpose of the project, the partnership between the EU and the beneficiaries,
and also the results achieved so far.
The release will incorporate the EU logo, mention that funding was provided by the EU, mention the
amount of EU funding in Euro and in the local currency. The release must be dated at the top. Generally,
journalists prefer to be able to use the release immediately, in this case 'For immediate release' must be
written at the top of the document. However, it is sometimes appropriate to embargo the release until, for
example, the publication of financial figures. In this case, a simple expression such as 'Not to be used before
10:00 hours, 15 October' must be included at the top of the document. The FATIMA press release template
has already been prepared, its size is kept to one side of an A4 paper and it contains a heading, a strong
leading paragraph summarising the essential facts, the main body of the story, quotes, some background
information, and contact details for further information.
The release should be kept to one side of an A4 page whenever possible; if it is longer, 'more follows' must
be written at the bottom of every subsequent page. At the end of the document, make sure to write 'End'.
After 'End', the press release should provide the name of at least one person whom the journalist can
contact for further information. Where possible, both a work and a home telephone number should be
provided.
FATIMA target is 30 entries at European, national, regional and local press (printed or online) describing the
goals of the project in a simple, jargon-‐free language. Whenever possible, press releases will highlight the
30 | 77
benefits for the municipality/region/country and the importance of the local partner being part of an EU
consortium. All press releases will be archived and will be available to the public through the project
website.
The FATIMA press releases will be disseminated to the EC Research & Innovation website, which is heavily
involved in communicating the results of EU-‐funded research to the media and the general public
(http://ec.europa.eu/research/index.cfm?lg=en). The FATIMA press releases may, also, be submitted in the
Community Research and Development Information Service (CORDIS) Wire
(http://cordis.europa.eu/news/home_en.html), which offers to journalists the ability to download press
releases relevant to EU-‐funded research.
AlphaGalileo (http://www.alphagalileo.org/) is another resource for European research news which the
FATIMA consortium will contact so that it publishes FATIMA press releases. Partner DRAXIS will register at
the website as a contributor in order to have the right to post press releases, event information, access the
address book and view the complete reference library.
Other channels through which the FATIMA press releases can be disseminated are the press office of the
European Environment Agency (http://www.eea.europa.eu/media#presscontact), and the Digital Agenda
for Europe (http://ec.europa.eu/digital-‐agenda/en).
The FATIMA partners are, also, encouraged to issue press releases at European Commission’s
representation offices of their countries (http://ec.europa.eu/contact/local_offices_en.htm). Moreover, an
indicative list of national and local media for potential distribution of FATIMA press releases is presented in
ANNEX E –Mass Media and News Agencies. The list can be further enriched during the course of the
project.
6.4 Scientific publications

It is expected that the FATIMA project will result in a number of publications in scientific, peer-‐reviewed
journals. Project partners are encouraged to collaborate with each other and jointly prepare publications
relevant to the FATIMA project. Scientific journals that provide open access (OA) to all their publications
will be preferred, as it is required by the European Commission.
In specific, as it is required in FATIMA Grand Agreement article 29.2 “each beneficiary must ensure open
access (free of charge online access for any user) to all peer reviewed scientific publications relating to its
results. In particular, it must: a) as soon as possible and at the latest on publication, deposit a machine-‐
readable electronic copy of the published version or final peer-‐reviewed manuscript accepted for
publication in a repository for scientific publications. Moreover, the beneficiary must aim to deposit at the
same time the research data needed to validate the results presented in the deposited scientific
publications, b) ensure open access to the deposited publication — via the repository — at the latest: (i) on
publication, if an electronic version is available for free via the publisher, or (ii) within six months of
publication (twelve months for publications in the social sciences and humanities) in any other case, and
finally c) ensure open access — via the repository — to the bibliographic metadata that identify the
deposited publication.
The bibliographic metadata must be in a standard format and must include all of the following:
-‐ the terms "European Union (EU)" and "Horizon 2020";
-‐ the name of the action, acronym and grant number;
-‐ the publication date, and length of embargo period if applicable, and
-‐ a persistent identifier.
31 | 77
It is envisaged that a project scientific committee will be formed among project partners to review
publications of FATIMA partners before submitting them to the journals. The same committee will define
the process of publishing after the end of the project. In ANNEX F – FATIMA Relevant Scientific Journals all
the potential scientific journal that can be used for publishing are presented in a table. The list can be
further enriched during the course of the project.
6.5 Participation in targeted non-‐project events

A common way to achieve an effective dissemination is the participation of FATIMA project partners in
targeted non-‐project events (events not organised by the project) where FATIMA project as whole or
specific actions and results of it can be presented. These events can include scientific conferences and
symposiums, workshops and other open events relevant to the project objectives. By participating in such
events, project partners will be able to promote project activities and outputs beyond partnership and
involved territories. However, prior to any participation in targeted non-‐project events, project partners
must notify the project board, the coordinator (UCLM) and partner DRAXIS responsible for dissemination.
This notification process is compulsory for dissemination monitoring and evaluation purposes.
6.5.1 Scientific conferences
Scientific conferences and symposiums are key venues to present new scientific knowledge and
methodologies emerging from FATIMA project. Partners’ representatives are encouraged to participate in
major conferences of relevant fields presenting the FATIMA project and related scientific results. If a poster
is included in the participation, it must follow the poster template of the project and other visibility
guidelines related to source of funding as described in section 5.2. A detailed list of conferences and
symposiums relevant to FATIMA project is available in ANNEX G – Targeted external non-‐project events.
The list will be updated with new conferences and symposiums during the whole duration of the project.
6.5.2 Workshops and Open events
FATIMA project partners are encouraged to participate in key workshops in the fields of agriculture,
precision agriculture, irrigation, webGIS solutions, Earth Observation throughout the duration of the
FATIMA project in order to increase the project’s visibility and build the FATIMA contact list and the
Network of Interest. Furthermore, other Open Events such as Agricultural Fairs or Shows will be also useful
means to disseminate the FATIMA project in different target audiences than those attended workshops.
Participation in Agricultural fairs to be held in FATIMA pilot countries can generate excitement and interest
in the project, engage related stakeholders and find potential customers.
All partners are encouraged to inform partner DRAXIS about such events to be held in their region. A
detailed list of workshops and other Open events relevant to FATIMA project is available in ANNEX G –
Targeted external non-‐project events. The list will be updated during the course of the project.

6.6 Actions organized by FATIMA

As the project matures and further results become available, the FATIMA consortium will organise selected
dissemination events in order to engage further external stakeholders, such as public organisations, NGOs,
strategic decision makers, policy makers, think tanks, scholars, public and private administrations etc.
32 | 77
The following options will be strategically decided and integrated with the sequence of Regional Meetings,
which are taking place in each pilot area every six months and which normally have a consortium-‐internal
part as well as a stakeholder-‐actors part.
6.6.1 FATIMA workshops and pilot open days
These workshops will be set up in order to provide an overview of the project objectives and activities,
present and discuss the results of the project, and share experiences and lessons learned to local
stakeholders and scientific community. The workshops will be organised by the Regional Managers in
coordination and collaboration with the leader of WP6 and particular attention will be paid to the
participation of the members of the FATIMA multi-‐actor community platform.
Initially, emphasis will be given to the design of the pilots, while at later stages the focus will be on the
assessment and validation of the results of the operation of the pilots.
Prior to all pilot workshops, a co-‐developing of local dissemination strategies workshop has already
implemented. The workshop took place during the 1st plenary meeting of FATIMA project in Albacete, Spain
and was organized by DRAXIS SA, the Lead partner of WP6 -‐ Market consolidation, dissemination, and
training and the participants were all partners from all the eight pilot areas of FATIMA project.
Furthermore in the context of pilot workshops special actions for women and families, elementary and high
schools but also for stakeholders and civil society will be organised.
6.6.2 Scientific workshops and policy info days
Scientific-‐technical workshops in relevant research areas can serve to communicate interim and final
project results, and help validate project outcomes in cooperation with project partners and the respective
scientific and academic community. Workshops with external stakeholders aim to facilitate the policy
debate around the various means and mechanisms that could be applied at regional, national and
European level to reinforce the adoption of similar patterns and practices. More specifically, policy
workshops can help communicate project results to external stakeholders and key decision makers, while
also gathering feedback to further fine-‐tune FATIMA research context (from the policy point of view).
6.7 Networking and Informal person-‐to-‐person meetings

Networking will be performed through the participation in relevant events linked to the project theme,
operating by all project partners throughout the duration of the project. This will be coupled by informal
person-‐to-‐person meetings with relevant stakeholders. These are additional activities to the project events
organized in FATIMA for dissemination (i.e. project workshops) and other purposes (i.e. multi-‐actor
community meeting in WP1.1, among others).
6.8 Collaboration with similar projects/ initiatives

The consortium will network with other relevant initiatives and projects, such as the e-‐Agriculture
Community (http://eagriculture.org) and the Community on Agricultural Policy Implementation and Geo-‐
Information (CAPIGI, www.capigi.eu). The e-‐Agriculture Community is a global community of practice
where people exchange information, ideas and resources related to the use of ICT for sustainable
agriculture and rural development. The Community counts over 12,000 members from 170 countries and
territories worldwide, among which there are researchers, farmers, policy makers, and development
33 | 77
practitioners. The scope of this network is to improve decision-‐making policies concerning the vital role of
ICTs to empower rural communities, and build sustainable agriculture and food security.
Making and maintaining contact with other projects might maximise resources. Even if only FATIMA project
was selected under the call “SFS-‐02a-‐2014: External nutrient inputs”, it is worth finding out what other
projects working in the same subject area or around the same topics are doing and then approaching them
with a view to collaborating since such a contact will probably improve the impact of dissemination as well
as reduce overall costs.
Some other indicative networks are presented below:

7 Internal communication
This Chapter aims to define the internal communication guidelines that will ensure:
That all partners have access to the same information at the same time,
That information is equally fast transmitted to all partners,
That the rules of behaviour are obeyed,
That consistent formats and communication procedures are used,
That the transmitted information minimises overload, is fast accessible and reduced to the
essential.
7.1 Document Sharing

For fulfilling the need of accessing and sharing materials around the project, FTP storage tool will be used
since it provides plenty of useful storage space for project partners to share and store data so they can
work together from anywhere. FTP access credentials are available in the Partners area of the website.
In order for the FTP to be as useful and navigable as possible all partners who have access to the folder
should follow the following guidelines:
34 | 77
Documents must be filed under the appropriate Work package. A top-‐level folder has been
established for each Work Package and existing materials have been, where possible, reorganized
into this structure.
Documents must be filed under the specific appropriate deliverables.
Any file or document deposited in FTP must include the date, version and author details for version
tracking.
Documents must be named in a consistent way that indicates date and version.
Furthermore as stated above the FATIMA Website partners are contains the Document Revisions
WordPress plugin5 that can be used in order to enable the project partners to collaborate on documents
while allowing document version control.
Finally, for further document storage and co-‐authoring, partners are free to use any of the commercially
available such as Dropbox, Google Drive or Microsoft Cloud after checking compatibility with the IT
departments of their institutions.
7.2 Chat, instant messaging, conference calls

For fulfilling the communication needs among project partners the use of Skype is recommended. Skype
can be used for chat, instant messaging communications and for conference calls since it is already being
widely used across the project to connect partners who are widely geographically spread.
Additional conference call facilities will depend on each partner and it is therefore up to individual Work
Package leaders to ensure that their choices of real-‐time communication tools are appropriate and
accessible to all attendees of their meetings/virtual meetings. Additional tools such as WebEx or Google+
Hangouts will be used if needed.
7.3 E-‐mail communication

A mailing list for the internal communication between the project partners has already been created. This
Chapter further defines the internal communication guidelines through the FATIMA mailing list as follows:

5
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-‐document-‐revisions/
35 | 77
For contacting all partners at once, a mailing list has been created.
The mailing list will be maintained and updated if needed by the project coordinator and the
partners responsible for Dissemination. All changes of the mailing list must be sent to the
coordinator who will adapt the list as soon as possible.
To ensure high and continuous coverage when distributing information it is highly recommended
that partners use this mailing list.
The e-‐mail subject should be clearly marked; ideally, all e-‐mails concerning FATIMA shall start with
“FATIMA” in the subject, followed by the topic.
Partners should refrain from sending large files via e-‐mail but rather use the documenting sharing
means that will be agreed in order to upload the file and send out only a text e-‐mail to the target
group with the notification about the new content.
All partners have to be aware of computer viruses.
The email list is being hosted and is available in the Partners area of the project website.
8 Project partners’ role in dissemination

The FATIMA consortium consists of partners with significant links with stakeholders that have potential
interest to the project and with experience in disseminating similar activities. All project partners are in a
strong position to develop an effective “personal” dissemination strategy, building on key existing channels.
These channels and links will provide direct access to the target groups and will act as core channels that
will support the project’s sustainability and its effective exit strategy. The responsibilities of each project
partner for the dissemination of FATIMA, they are summarized in the following table:
Table 4: FATIMA project partners individual roles in dissemination
Partner Role in dissemination

DRAXIS Monitor and evaluate the dissemination activities, Prepare the project logo, Develop the
project website, Produce all printed material, Organise project workshops, Organise project
events, Establish and manage the Network of Interest
UCLM Evaluate effectiveness of dissemination, Make corrections and suggestions where needed,
Decide upon Project scientific committee, Decide upon participation in external events,
Evaluate scientific publications, Expand and strengthen the ties with scientific community,

Publish articles, Translate and develop informational material
Suggest contacts for the project mailing list and the Network of Interest
Provide performance data to the WP6 leader DRAXIS
36 | 77
9 Dissemination Strategy monitoring, reporting and

evaluation
To ensure accurate monitoring and reporting of dissemination activities, FATIMA deliverables include a
number of reports linked to dissemination activities. The WP6 leader will be responsible for drafting the
content of these reports, in collaboration with Project coordinator UCLM and partner UTAEM. The
following sections outline the FATIMA reporting schedule, as well as the requirements for individual
partners to provide information on their own dissemination activities. The reporting schedule for the
formal FATIMA dissemination deliverables is as follows:
Table 5: WP6 deliverables schedule
Time Deliverable name

M6 D6.4 Project Website and Dissemination Material
M9 D6.3 FATIMA Dissemination Strategy
M18, 32 D6.5 FATIMA Training Strategy & Material
M18, 36 D6.6 Gender Action Report
As mentioned above, the leader of WP6 will be in charge of the overall monitoring of all dissemination
activities and will report to the project coordinator in case of any problem. However, each partner will be in
charge of locally monitoring its own dissemination activity and reporting the progress and pitfalls to the
WP6 leader. All partners are responsible for liaising with national and local media for dissemination
purposes, and for ensuring that they engage enough stakeholders to properly enlarge the community. Each
partner has already nominated a dissemination contact point who will send the following to the WP6
leader on a regular basis (i.e. whenever there are activities to report on, at latest a week after the activity):
A description of all dissemination publications published or posted by project partner or other
organisations, using the template for monitoring dissemination activities in Annex H1 Template for
Reporting Dissemination Publications
A description of all dissemination events held using the template for dissemination events in Annex
H2 Template for Reporting Dissemination Events.
To facilitate reporting, these templates have been designed to be as simple and easy to fill in as possible.
The WP6 leader stresses the importance of receiving this information to allow the accurate monitoring and
adjustment of dissemination activities as necessary. Moreover, all project partners are asked to send to the
WP6 leader any photocopy, print-‐out, photo, link, screenshot, etc. relevant to the project whenever they
find them.
Regarding the evaluation of FATIMA dissemination activities, a specific ongoing evaluation procedure will
be executed so that the impact of the dissemination strategy can be measured in all the project phases
from its very beginning to its end. The main issues that will be evaluated are the quality of the
dissemination tools and activities, and the impact of the dissemination activities on the target groups
defined by the project, emphasizing on the impact of the project on FATIMA related stakeholders.
As described in the following chapter, the achievement of the objectives of the FATIMA dissemination
strategy will be evaluated by assessing the dissemination impact indicators in comparison with the
predefined target values. Regular updates of the project achievements will be communicated, including
37 | 77
results (presentations, press releases, participation in events, etc.) which will be highlighted on the FATIMA
website, social media groups/accounts, etc.
For each of the dissemination activities, one or more measurement or feedback mechanisms will be used to
measure the effectiveness of the dissemination. Indicatively:
Website: Setup Google Analytics and measure the number of visitor/ traffic to the website/ amount
of time spent on the site and all the rest of the available variables
Facebook: Number of “likes” in project page
LinkedIn, Twitter, Google+, YouTube: Number of group memberships
Project events: Number of FATIMA events organized by the consortium; number of participants
Non-‐project events: Number of non-‐project events in which FATIMA is presented; number of
participants
Newsletter: Number of newsletters promoted; number of subscribed people
Project printed material: Distribution rate versus website traffic
Publications: Number of publications and audience per publication; traffic rate on the website
Press releases/ articles: Coverage (number of media), frequency (positive or negative media
evaluation), level of involvement of news agencies in dissemination
Network of Interest: Number of stakeholders registered
Other initiatives: Level of collaboration with other similar initiatives; number of joint events.
10 Dissemination Impact Indicators

Impact with regard to dissemination and exploitation can help partners to understand the reach and
sustainability of the project’s results. Furthermore, the impact can also be used to measure and assess the
promotion activities in terms of their relevance, quality, and promotion channel. Both quantitative and
qualitative will be used to monitor the impact of dissemination activities. Some of the proposed indicators
are included in the table below:

12 Conclusion
Through the implementation of this Dissemination Strategy, FATIMA will maximise its impact to the
agricultural world and policy makers across Europe. Its impact depends on the successful configuration of
the implementation of the pilot projects. As the project evolves, the Dissemination Strategy will be
adjusted to match the results and impacts of the project.

ANNEX B – Local Dissemination Strategies
B.0 Local dissemination strategy outline

Within the context of the overall Dissemination Strategy of the project, specialized local dissemination
strategies have been developed, in order to provide guidelines for the planning and implementation of
each one of the Local Dissemination Strategies in the pilot areas. The Local Dissemination Strategy outline
is ensuring, on the one hand, a common approach of the use of the dissemination activities and tools,
while, on the other hand, is providing the conditions for the necessary specialization on each distinct area.
For this to be realised, a 4-‐phase approach is being outlined, aiming to engage all the involved parties on
local level in order to implement the Dissemination Strategy, based on the specific needs and conditions of
each area.
As already mentioned a co-‐developing of local dissemination strategies workshop has already
implemented. The workshop took place during the 1st Plenary Meeting of FATIMA project during 7-‐9
October 2015 in Albacete, Spain and was organized by DRAXIS SA, the Lead partner of WP6 -‐ Market
consolidation, dissemination, and training and the participants were all partners from all the eight pilot
areas of FATIMA project. During the workshop Regional Partners from pilot countries discussed and
designed together their local dissemination strategies.
B.0.1 Local Dissemination Strategy phases
Local dissemination strategies are structured in four distinct phases in order to make use of a variety of
activities and tools. Using distinct channels through a circular flow of 4 dissemination streams, the local
dissemination strategy aims to combine global knowledge and expertise with local first-‐hand experience, in
creating local action motivation, in order to raise awareness and enhance participation.
1st Phase: Commitment of the Multi-‐actor community platform
During the first phase, the project partners who are responsible for the implementation of the local
dissemination strategy make use of the project’s communication tools and channels to ensure commitment
of experts from related fields with high-‐level of knowledge and experience in precision agriculture. The
objective is to form a Multi-‐actor platform in order to act as a main dissemination pole to the next phase.
2nd Phase: Knowledge exchange
During the second phase the project, partners together with the Multi-‐actor community platform provide
the necessary knowledge dissemination towards the most interested and active parties on local level.
Through a number of interactive information and knowledge exchange events (workshops etc.) targeted to
local stakeholders including local authorities and business bodies and other stakeholders concerned on
local level (journalists, local media, etc.), knowledge and experience is being exchanged, with the objective
to build synergies in order to co-‐organise participatory targeted events.
3rd Phase: Action motivation
During the third phase a set of participatory events will be organised jointly by the project partners with the
interested parties from the 2nd phase. The activities will be especially targeted to enhance participation of
stakeholders from local level, disseminating the projects objectives towards them, while providing them
with the appropriate tools and motivate them to participate actively in the activities of the project in order
to communicate their own message to the parties concerned (local authorities, policy making bodies, etc.).
49 | 77
At the same time, the results of the participatory events will provide useful experience data for experts
(Network of Interest) in order to expand and assess the current knowledge and disseminate the project’s
outcomes.
4th Phase: Feedback and Dissemination
The fourth phase includes all dissemination streams that will result from the experience gained by the first
three phases. All the above concerned parties (project partners, field experts, local stakeholders etc.) will
make use and exploit the experience from the dissemination activities (information events, participatory
events), as means of communicating themselves and creating a positive pressure stream towards the
stakeholders concerned with policy making and environmental policy, on local and global level.
The project’s outputs from the 4th phase will be publications and mass media entries, newsletters and
information and publicity activities (e.g. participation in events, public presentations, etc.) aiming to diffuse
the knowledge and experience gained, targeted to all concerned parties on local and global level (academia
& experts, policy making stakeholders, local authorities, NGOs, etc.). Furthermore, all the participating
parties are expected to act as multipliers of the project’s outcomes, using the tools provided, in creatively
expressing and communicating themselves in the public sphere, creating further dissemination streams
towards the targeted audiences.
B.1 La Mancha Oriental
B.1.1 Current situation
The Mancha Oriental area is characterized by having a relatively flat surface with an average height of 650
m. It is located in the South-‐East of the Iberian Peninsula, at 39.7N-‐38.6N and 2.53W-‐0.9W, in the Jucar
River Basin. It occupies about 10.000 km² of which more than 500.000 ha are devoted to agriculture.
It has a semi-‐arid climate with an annual precipitation below 350 mm and an evapotranspiration above
1200 mm. Its main characteristic is a high variation between seasons and between years, according to the
Mediterranean-‐Continental type. The averages temperatures vary between 5 ºC on January to 24 ºC on
July. The oscillation between dry and wet years ranges from 124 mm to 750 mm.
The total population is close to 400.000 people and the biggest settlement are Albacete (170.000
inhabitants) and La Roda (16.000 inhabitants).
The soil is shallow with limestone bedrock. It is highly variable with sandy loam, loam and clay loam
texture, often stony but easy to cultivate and quite fertile under appropriate agronomic management.
The area features mainly medium to large farms with 70% of the farms being larger than 100 ha. Around
10% of the farms practice organic agriculture and 7,5% conservation agriculture.
Dominant crops cultivated in the area are presented in the table below.
Table 8: Dominant crops in the La Mancha-‐Oriental region
Crop type total area (ha) within Pilot Area

Largest area Wheat/barley 180.000 (rainfed) 45.000 (irrigated)
2nd largest Vineyard 100.000 (rainfed) 40.000 (irrigated)

5th largest Onion 5.000 (irrigated)

Other Garlic 4.500 (irrigated)
Poppy 4.000 (irrigated)
Legume 30.000 (rainfed)
The water for irrigation is mainly supplied by groundwater (93%). Agriculture is the largest water consumer
summing up to 95% of the water demand, with a share of 89% of the supplied water being used by
individual farmers and 6% by water user associations. Regarding irrigation technology only pressurized
systems are used, in annual crops: central pivot (75%) and other sprinkler systems (25%), in woody crops:
drip irrigation (100%).
The Mancha Oriental Aquifer is a large groundwater body that is connected to the Jucar River in terms of
drainage and recharge. The groundwater level lies at a depth of 60-‐200 m. The aquifer is threatened by
over-‐extraction and features no “good status” as defined in the EU Water Framework Directive. The biggest
part of the area is designated Nitrogen Vulnerable Zone, the amount of applied nitrogen is restricted.
The major problems identified in the area related to agriculture are the increased energy cost for pumping
water, the need balance between quality against quantity, the fact that sustainable agriculture not used in
big farms, low crop yields, the Unpredictability of rainfall and the variability of product process.
The main challenges identified are:
Aquifer depletion.
Nitrate aquifer pollution.
Increased energy cost for pumping water.
Predominance of low added-‐value crops.
High volatility of commodities price.
Soil degradation and desertification.
Irrigated crops CO2 balance
B.1.2 Target audiences
Farmers: The type of technology developed by FATIMA is only suitable for the most innovative
sector, so in the first phase communication effort should focus on the quality and not the quantity of
the audience, without underestimating the possibility of reaching a wider audience but less
receptive. Farmers need to be confident with new technologies because cultivation routines can be
done in another way. They should be involved in the process. Also young farmers, who are lacking in
the region, under setting up process are also considered, in this case personal from FATIMA can take
advantage of training courses organized by local authorities participating in the program definition
and teaching.
• Current farmers: first phase 15 (12 male, 3 females) “innovative leaders”, already identified in
Spanish Pilot Area. Second phase, several hundred (most of them male) in the pilot area and
beyond in cooperation with agribusiness partners (see below)
• Setting up young farmers: 80 (fifty-‐fifty).
Agribusiness: big cooperatives, inputs and machinery companies are in need of innovations to
convey to their customers an attractive message tied to its products able to create value and loyalty.
In many cases the FATIMA final services and products fit in their approach, with the additional
advantage to be supported by prestigious universities and research centers. Therefore it can be
51 | 77
stated with some of them some kind of collaboration that contributes to the dissemination of the
achievements of the FATIMA project.
• Big cooperatives: 4 regional.
• Fertilizer companies: 2 national companies.
• Irrigation equipment companies: 3 local enterprises.
• Crop protection and seeds companies: 4 multinationals and their commercial network of
distributors and retailers all over Spain.
Policy makers and other authorities: people of political and administrative relevance to be informed
on the progress in technology and agricultural knowledge aimed at optimizing agricultural inputs.
They can create favorable scenario where these initiatives can grow and develop with the implication
of all agriculture agents. Become believers (really ones) or new tools for water management and
nutrients.
• Policy makers: Farmers Unions (2), Delegate of the regional government (1), regional government
Minister (1), Albacete Councilor (1).
• Other authorities: President of Jucar river basin (1), President of “Junta Central de Regantes de La
Mancha Oriental” (main water users association) (1).
Students from agricultural institutes and university: in the pilot area there are several agronomic
study centers where any new and complementary contribution to the official program will always be
welcome, in this regard the issues addressed by FATIMA could be of interest to students.
• University of Castilla La Mancha School of Agronomic: 30 students.
• Center of Professional Studies of Aguas Nuevas: 20 students.
Consumers and general public: public opinion in Spanish Pilot Area, despite living in an agricultural
environment, has a great lack of understanding and generally perceived farmers as pollutants and
destroyers of the environment. In this regard, it is particularly important to communicate the
research and technology transfer efforts are being done in FATIMA project to improve agricultural
resource management from a sustainability point of view.
• General Public: several thousand.
• Environmentalist NGOs: 2 organizations, a hundred of members.

B.2 Piana di Tarquinia (Lazio)
The Italian pilot area, “Piana di Tarquinia”, is located inside the “Maremma Etrusca” Water User
Associations, near the city of Tarquinia, in the Lazio Region, less than 90km from Rome.
It’s a plain area characterized by tourism and agriculture activities. The Etruscan cemetery of Tarquinia is an
UNESCO World Heritage list from 2004; the agriculture of the area is intensive and various with a range of
irrigated and rainfed productions mainly tomatoes, vegetables, durum wheat, vineyard.
For irrigated production, the Marta river is the main source of water, strongly regulated through a network
of channels and dams designed to guarantee water supply. Better irrigation and nutrient efficiency is
however necessary to improve farming system profitability, overcome pressures on resources and preserve
environmental and water quality in aquifers.
The typical problems of the area are due to groundwater pollution and water management. Both in quality
than in quantity perspective. As a matter of fact the area has been identified as nitrates vulnerable zone
(EU Nitrates). FATIMA project will tackle these problems by providing fertilizer and water management
recommendation to both farmers and institutional stakeholders.
53 | 77
Further reported problems by the farmers are uncertainty for the future, high costs of production
especially due to water costs, the fear the old Etruscan way of would not be inherited by young people and
ground water pollution.
Target audiences in pilot area are:

Farmers: Components of water basin management.
Citizens: tourists-‐consumers, tourists who are users of archeological area and seaside infrastructure.
Students: primary for environmental feeling and from agricultural institutes for new technology and
management.
Policy makers: Authority of water basin management, local and regional authority, river basin
management authority
Specialization of the strategy in Piana di Tarquinia will follow the same pattern as in the Spanish pilot.
Additional specialization will be provided during the course of the project.
Local champions: Charismatic, aware of the risk but ready to face the challenges, curious of new
technology, involve in the local community association to help other farmers of the territory, respect for
the environment, he loves his soil and he wants to evaluate his own soil even though he is open to
technology. He is a risk taker. He is a hunter, president of the water association, charismatic.
Slogan: 1 From Space to Soil – Going to the future/ 2. Classical heritage and technological future – Satellite
will change farming / 3. FATIMA – The new agricultural secrets/ From past to the future – Satellite will
change Farming / From classical heritage to technological future
B.3 Thessaly
Pinios river basin -‐ General Description

The Pinios River Basin is located in Thessalia in central Greece, covering an area of 10.500 km² of which
450.000 ha are agricultural land (36%) and forests (19%). It is considered to be the principal agricultural
region of Greece, as its plain is the most intensely cultivated and productive agricultural area in the
country. The economy of the Thessaly region depends strongly on agriculture as a relatively high
percentage of the population is partly or fully employed in agriculture. The capital of the region is Larissa
with 180.000 inhabitants and other major cities are Trikala and Karditsa.
The climate of Pinios river basin is continental at the western and central side and Mediterranean at the
eastern side. Winters are cold and wet and summers are hot and dry with large temperature variation
between these two seasons. Mean annual precipitation over the Thessaly region is about 700 mm and it is
distributed irregularly in space and time. The mean annual precipitation varies from about 400 mm at the
central plain area to more than 1850 mm at the western mountainous areas. Generally, rainfall is rare from
June to August. Mountainous areas receive significant amounts of snow during the winter months and
transient snowpacks are developed.
54 | 77
The landscape is characterized by the intensive agriculture in the plain. Fertile soils in general with low
organic matter concentrations receive large amounts of fertilizers uniformly independently on the spatial
soil variation. Around 55% of the agricultural land is irrigated. Usually, the dry periods are accompanied
with high temperatures, which lead to higher evapotranspiration rates and dry soils. These conditions
inversely affect both the natural vegetation and the agriculture of the region resulting in irrigation
cutbacks, overexploitation of groundwater and significant losses of crop yields.
Agriculture is by far the main water consumer representing the 90-‐95% of the annual water demand of the
area, with irrigated land covering half of the total cultivated area. There is limited availability of irrigation
water during the summer growing season leading to water over exploitation and illegal drillings. Depletion
of ground water levels increases cost of irrigation.
In general soils have low organic matter concentrations (<1.8%) that influence both productivity and
resilience. Fertilizers and pesticides are uniformly and excessively applied independently on soil spatial
variability. Soil degradation coupled with the climatic characteristics and the pressure of intensive
agriculture has led some areas in Pinios river basin at the final stage of desertification, which highlights the
delicate balance and interdependence between people and the environment.
Small size of the farms (around 5 ha in average) and single plots (1ha) constitute major obstacles for the
design of sustainable farming systems.
Excessive pumping, and inefficient irrigation coupled with soil mismanagement on the farm level,
endangers not only the fragile ecosystem of Pinios River Basin but also the economy of the Thessaly plain
and the wellbeing of the local society.
Other problems defined during workshop are the lack of water resources, the low educational level of
farmers but they have experience, lack of environmental sensibility (Crop yield maximization), lack of
infrastructure and lack of state support, high production costs, high fluctuation in agricultural production,
too much privatization of the agricultural sector, salty soils, bad drainage that causes damages to houses
and strong winds.
Farmers: Especially new farmers that could have an interest in new technologies and are susceptible in
new mentalities regarding soil and water management. Although most of farmers are aware of the water
scarcity problem and soil management issues in the Pinios River Basin, they should be better informed
about the impacts of water /soil resource deteriorations and the methods of saving costs with effective
irrigation and fertilization practices. Fatima proposed fertilization strategy that takes in to account spatial
variability of fertilization needs in the Greek pilots has to highlight both to the environmental and economic
viability.
Policy makers: The challenge has to be of a long-‐term strategy which does not sacrifice the viability of the
environment and the society that depends on it on the altar of quick profit and make shift solutions. What
is of the essence is a long term strategy that regards water/soil resources as a unity and respects the
capacities and timing of nature. Fatima tools for efficient fertilization at farm level has to be included in the
long term design of agriculture systems and promoted by appropriate policies.
Local Agribusiness: The economic feasibility of FATIMA tools in Greek pilots is the key feature for the
promotion of them from local agribusiness that constitutes the link with local agriculture community.
Citizens (consumers): Citizens have to realize the environmental benefits of this FATIMA project, which also
reduces the production costs leading to regional economic development.
55 | 77
Greek pilot experiments are conducted in farms managed by agronomists farmers:
Giorgos Samaras for cotton and corn experiments.
Nikolaos Tserlikakis for the wheat experiments.
Summer 2015 and winter 2015-‐2016 experiments has already became known in the local community of
“Platykampos” and “Nea Lefki” respectively. Informal talks with local farmers about the Fatima new
fertilization strategy has already made
The 2nd Regional Meeting that will be organized in Larisa in summer 2016 will be dedicated in dissemination
of Fatima proposed tools for efficient irrigation and fertilization to specific invited stakeholders. Targets: 30
Farmers, 10 Policy makers, 15 local agribusiness, 10 experts.
After completion of summer 2016 experiments a campaign to local and national media (3 newspapers, 3 TV
stations) will be conducted presenting the experimental results and the proposed Fatima tools for efficient
irrigation and fertilization management with environmental and economic benefits.
Furthermore, the selected local campion is an educated farmer this is why he cares about the environment.
He supports the reducing in the use of fertilizers, so to have less pollution and spend less. He wants to
convince the state to help farmer to get out of te crises. He asks the state to be trusted and believed. He
took the family farm after his study to make the farm environmentally sustainable.
B.4 Avignon
Traditional farmers are not open to adopt new technologies which create a huge waste of water. In
particularly in South of France conventional farming, like use of pesticides or other phytosanitary products
when it could have alternative solutions more adapted for the environment. Farmers need to be informed
of the possibilities they have to be more specific and equally productive.
New generation of young farmers. Motivate the by showing benefits of the result, the new method. They
need to see and not only read a simple paper.

Jerome Grangier, French farmer. The use of new tools, new methods. He likes what he does, he has an
attitude to improve. He knows the conditions of his plot (plants, kind of soil, water). He is very connected to
the land. He uses water efficiently

B.5 Dehtare
The pilot area Dehtáře is situated in the south-‐west Bohemo-‐Moravian Highland (Czech Republic), at 49°28´
N – 15° 12´ E, close to Pelhřimov town. The fields in Dehtáře are not irrigated, which is a special feature of
this case study compared to all other FATIMA pilot areas. The experimental site was established in late
1970´s for the research of linkages between land use and management in various geomorphological zones
and water quantity and quality dynamics. Dehtáře has an area of 59.6 ha, with tile drained areas occupying
19 ha (~32%). The catchment area is mainly agricultural land (89.3%). Minor forested areas (3.3%) lie at its
northwestern and northern borders. Grassland (20.3%) covers the southern part of the catchment, as well
as the adjacent lowest lying southwestern area, which is tile-‐drained. The remaining area (69%) is arable
land, which is used mainly for production of cereals. The catchment geomorphology belongs to the erosion-‐
accumulation relief type. The altitude ranges between 497 and 550 m. Dehtáře site is located within the
Svihov drinking water reservoir catchment, on the Zelivka river. Svihov reservoir is Czech largest surface
drinking water supply for Prague and Central Bohemia. The whole Zelivka river basin is designated as a
nitrate vulnerable zone. The main crops are cereals (winter wheat, spring barley), winter rape, potatoes
and red clover.
In the vicinity of Dehtáře, there occur some agri-‐environmental problems related to farming management.
Surface, drainage and groundwater pollution by nitrates persists. In the year 2015, a lack of precipitation
and thus available soil water content occurred. This year, a problem with shortage of potable water araised
in some nearby villages and potable water was distributed in tanks. On the other hand, in the same region,
flood protection measures are desirable to prevent property damages after torrential rains in some years.
As in many other sites in the region, there are problems with functioning and maintenance of land
drainage. A prevailing challenge still to be addressed is soil erosion. Kojčice farm, a local traditional
agricultural cooperative, engaged in Fatima, is eager in new technologies as well as machinery for precise
farming. However, as many of the farmers around, they need information what is worth / necessary to do
regarding the new farming approaches in the view of maintaining / enhancing crop yields with
simultaneous soil and water conservation. A typical current approach is the excessive and homogeneous
use of fertilizer with a little regard to different yield potential of fields with different soil conditions.
Farmers: Our story is important for local farmers. We think our story could be interesting for other people
in Kojčice cooperative and also for other farmers in the region because FATIMA methods are targeted to
cost minimization and improving yields, while preserving soil and water resources. Approach: farmer
workshops, field days, information on farmer web pages.
Other stakeholders: We also consider arranging a workshop with Vltava river basin authority
representative, since precision farming management in FATIMA pilot Dehtáře will be tested also how it can
contribute to minimize the impact of fertilization on water quality. Incorporation of precision farming in
watershed plans could have a positive effect on water quality improvement. Approach: meetings,
information on web pages, results in scientific papers
Students and general public: Students are a promising target group, with a certain way of influence of the
neighbouring opinion (e.g. parents, teachers). Approach: meetings, information on web pages.
57 | 77
Specialization of the strategy in Dehtare will follow the same pattern as in the Spanish and Greek pilot.
Additional specialization will be provided during the course of the project.
Local champions: Agronomist Milan Vaněček and Pavel Svárovský (Engineer in charge of machinery) from
the Kojčice cooperative. They are open for new ideas, know the agricultural management very well and are
willing to adopt FATIMA requirements. These guys are capable to show the results from FATIMA explain the
benefits and motivate other farmers to provide data needed for upscaling FATIMA approach to large fields.
B.6 Marchfeld
1) Long tradition of farming. Difficult to change things, people are proud of their farm. Conservative type of
farming. New, young farmers who are more environmentally aware. High amount of organic farmers
(highest in Europe). 2) Water is not seen as an environmental problem but as an economic one. 3)
Closeness to Vienna. Producers and consumers are really close to one another -‐> Adamah Biohof
(http://www.adamah.at/) and food cooperatives. 4) Prices of products are controlled from outside (big
seller are SPAR). 5) People can’t drink tap water but farmers don’t connect it to their own.
Consumers. Message: environmental water foot print, energy foot print, responsible use of natural
resources. Approach: through big sellers like SPAR, Hofer, Rewe, Billa, Merkur.
Farmers. Message: Benefits of FATIMA tools and services. Approach: through fertilizer companies,
through AGES when they sent a sample for soil analyses and AGES farmer workshops, through
farmers associations
General public: Approach through media press release center at BOKU and AGES
Young farmers – Landjugend

Adamah. Helene could contact them! Have also a consumer contact!
B.7 Menemen (lower Gediz basin)
The Menemen Plain in the Lower Gediz River Basin is located in Izmir province. The area is intensively
agriculturally used – the main crops are cotton, wine and maize -‐ and irrigated mainly by furrow irrigation.
The plain is formed by the material carried by the Gediz river. The layers are not distinctive. Soil is classified
into 15 series of entisol and inceptisols. The soil is especially risch in nutrients and productive where there
is no drainage problem.
58 | 77
The main challenges are increasing pressure on the water resources and pollution of water and soil.
Frequent drought conditions lead to an over-‐exploitation of groundwater and endanger the income of
farmers, who follow a strategy of risk minimization by applying high water and fertilizer dosages.
The average irrigated plot size in the pilot area is small with 1.3 ha. The government has already taken
measures to avoid the further splitting of fields. Almost all plots (98%) are irrigated with furrow irrigation.
Only for vineyards and vegetables drip irrigation systems are installed. River water from the Gediz river is
the main source of water for irrigation. Less than 10% of the plots in the pilot are irrigated with
groundwater.
The general strategy of farmers in this region is “risk minimizing” in terms of achieving the desired yield.
They do it by “over-‐fertilizing” and “over-‐irrigating” as they fear to lose yield. More inputs haven’t brought
more money. Less inputs give safer environment especially cleaner water.
The number of members of Menemen Left Bank Water Users’ Association is about 4500. These will be
indirect users of the project tools and services. Mean age range is 40-‐50 and nearly all of the members are
male because the dominant plant pattern is field crops. According to the president, low percentage of
vegetables in the area lowers the number of female members.
The number of extensively monitored plots will be totally about 50 for different crops during project period
and these farmers will be potentially direct users of the project services. These farmers are open to new
techniques and volunteers of dissemination of the FATIMA products. Because the plots in the area very
fragmented, regional irrigation management and in field fertilization management will be focused. Due to
old and low tech irrigation applications, decision support of regional irrigation water management will be a
more effective FATIMA service. On the other hand, decision support for fertilization management in small
plot fields will be more interested by the farmers.
First, technology levels of current input management in wheat, corn and cotton growing techniques will be
identified and classified. Later a monitoring system of small plots will be established. Small size plots of the
same farmers as well as neighboring plots which show difference of FATIMA services will be compared. The
difference between farmers and plots and the reasons will be identified.
Brochures and leaflets are easy to prepare and hand out. To extend web site use requires demonstration or
short training of the project tools & services. Workshops and meetings in the field for new techniques are
common in the area.
Therefore 1000 leaflets to inform the specific and general audience about purpose, progress and findings of
the project; at least 1 training for demonstration of the project tools and services for owners of extensive
commercial plots; and 2 field days (one for wheat and one for maize and cotton) in 2016 are required.
Newspaper and local TV will be invited. Newsletters will be prepared after each regional meetings and each
milestone activities. Branded and promotional items like pens and notepads together with leaflets,
factsheets and news letters will be used in every evets.
Local project team and stakeholder advisory panel will develop and foster linkages between 5 of the
farmers who member of core/focus group and to transfer new techniques according to adaptive learning
by day by day communication (informal talks, semi structured interviews, round table discussions, brain
storming whenever required). Neighbouring farmers as well will be potential users according to “law of
neighbour”. Both the 5 focus group and extension of the users will be developed by snow ball technique.
59 | 77
Owners of the extensive commercial plots for wheat, corn and cotton will be about 50 farmers. And around
10 companies of seed, fertilizer, machinery, marketing, etc. might involve in dissemination activities.
Farming communities, policy makers, science&technology peers and professional associations of 15-‐20
public institutes and NGO’s Farming communities will be invited to the events (workshops and the
meetings).
The second regional meeting will be held at the beginning of February 2016 with stakeholders. The leaflets
will be distributed to the participants. Before this event the leaflets will be prepared and distributed to the
farmers who are actively participated to the project. Informal talks to the local farmers have been started
at the beginning of the project and they will be continued during project to sustain project campaigns.
Beside local dissemination the project will be introduced to professionals at international level in UTAEM’s
international training courses by presentations.
Local champions: Bridge between researchers and farmers. Selling points: 1) Head of WUA in the area well
know farmer, also originally from the pilot area. He comes from farmers’ family. He is well know by the
community of farmers and respected. 2) He is interested in the FATIMA project, wants to be part of it,
because he took part in other similar projects. 3) He has “power” to convince the farmers in the area if we’ll
succeed the project, as farmers do not trust researchers.
