Field Trial Data Collection and Plant Phenotyping in Norway
Join the Nordic Testbed Network Roadshow 2026 in Norway and explore how data are collected, managed and applied in modern field trials. Through presentations, site visits and dialogue with experts, participants will gain first-hand insight into Norwegian research infrastructures, plant phenotyping environments and practical approaches to field-based data collection.
The roadshow offers participants an opportunity to:
- learn from Norwegian facilities and field trial environments,
- explore methods and technologies for data collection and phenotyping,
- exchange experiences with researchers, testbeds and innovation actors from across the Nordic-Baltic region, and
- strengthen collaboration around digitalisation in agricultural research and development.
The event is relevant for:
- researchers and students working with agriculture, field trials and plant phenotyping,
- testbed organisations and research infrastructures,
- technology providers developing sensing, monitoring and data solutions,
- advisors and innovation actors in the agri-food sector,
- public and private stakeholders interested in digitalisation in agricultural research and production.
The Nordic Testbed Network invites participants to this roadshow, organised by the Nordic-Baltic Plant Phenotyping Network (NB-PPN) and the Nordic Field Trial Network (NFTN), and hosted by NIBIO and NMBU in Norway.
The roadshow is organised as a midday-to-midday programme, making it possible to travel to and from Norway within two days. The programme includes visits to NIBIO on Day 1 and NMBU on Day 2, combining presentations, technical visits, professional discussions and networking opportunities.
