For the third consecutive year, the National Academy of Engineering of Uruguay (ANIU) will present the Rosario Pou Award for Innovation in the Forestry Chain.<\/p>\n
The ceremony will take place on March 12, 2025<\/strong> at 6:00 p.m. at the Uruguay Golf Club, with free admission for the public.<\/p>\n This award, established in 2022 thanks to a donation from the American philanthropist Mary V. Mochary, seeks to recognize and promote innovation<\/strong> throughout the Uruguayan forestry production chain.<\/p>\n The award honors individuals, groups or companies<\/strong> that have developed innovations that generate value, improve processes and services, or implement new practices and technologies with a focus on sustainable development.<\/p>\n In the previous edition, the project \u201cAutomatic irrigation with artificial vision\u201d, developed by Montes del Plata<\/a> in collaboration with J. Hartwich<\/a> and Digital Sense<\/a>, was awarded for its irrigation machinery that uses artificial vision technology and supervised learning algorithms.<\/p>\n This innovation makes it possible to detect the plants and apply the necessary water automatically, reducing irrigation costs by 50% and optimizing water use (montesdelplata.com.uy).<\/p>\n The Rosario Pou Award pays tribute to forestry agronomist Rosario Pou Ferrari<\/strong>, who has an outstanding career<\/strong> as a teacher, consultant and public official in the Uruguayan forestry sector.<\/p>\n He has been a member of ANIU for the past decade.<\/p>\n ANIU invites all interested parties to participate in this ceremony and celebrate together the advances in innovation that strengthen Uruguay\u2019<\/strong>s forestry chain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For the third consecutive year, the National Academy of Engineering of Uruguay (ANIU) will present the Rosario Pou Award for Innovation in the Forestry Chain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":11650,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[104,80],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11652","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-2025-en","category-news"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11652","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11652"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11652\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11650"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11652"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11652"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2022.aniu.org.uy\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11652"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
