The paper presents the plan for a research project, entitled Research on the digitalization of agriculture in Northern Baragan Plain, through the use of drones and satellites, with the purpose of monitoring crops and efficiency [AGRODATA] The steps for creating the soil sensor network, the online database, the soil and crop scanning with the help of drones and satellites, with the formulation of warnings and recommendations for each soil are presented. Starting from the climatic data, continuously recorded, to the realization of the agrochemical maps and to the monitoring of the crops, the working method and the advantages of using the Agrodata system are presented in stages. The increase in economic efficiency through the use of this system derives from the fact that the attack of diseases and pests is observed in time, phytosanitary treatments can be carried out locally, so that the consumption of diesel and pesticides decreases significantly. By using the Agrodata system, it is estimated an increase in the economic efficiency of field and horticultural crops from 20 to 35%. The research proposed in this project is endorsed by the need for farmers to reduce trekking across their land, under the conditions of obtaining updated real-time information on crop status
