The DA-BAFE Dev Team and CSU Team successfully concluded a 3-day face-to-face technical meeting (Sept. 16–18, 2025) at the DA BAFE Conference Room.

🔹 Day 1 focused on system architecture & design, where microservices and microfrontends were discussed to ensure a scalable ABEMIS 3.0. The team emphasized test-driven development, secure backend practices, and smooth data migration from GEOAGRI.

🔹 Day 2 centered on SEPPD’s inputs for Farm-to-Market Road (FMR) proposals—covering data gathering, feature suggestions (mapping, questionnaires, offline mode), validation requirements, and proposal workflows. Enhancements for monitoring, notifications, and integration were also proposed.

🔹 Day 3 discussions with DA-BAFE PPMD highlighted reporting, dashboards, project registration improvements, approvals, inventory movement, and the use of IMAS for monitoring and analytics. Clear roles were defined for EPDSD, PMED, PPMD, and RAED.

✅ The meeting strengthened collaboration, ensuring ABEMIS 3.0 will be more secure, data-driven, and user-friendly—paving the way for smarter agricultural project management.
