SCAP: Revolutionizing Agricultural Resource Management in Serbia
About The Project
SCAP (Competitive Agriculture Project) is a transformative digital platform developed to centralize agricultural resource access, streamline grant distribution, and empower thousands of farmers and government administrators across Serbia.
With a special focus on underserved groups, the platform modernizes legacy infrastructure, reduces administrative overhead, and introduces AI-driven tools to scale agricultural impact nationwide.

Challenges
- #1
Data Fragmentation
Siloed databases and manual workflows made it difficult for over 10,000 farmers to access grants, competitions, and essential documents efficiently.
- #2
Legacy Infrastructure
Outdated government systems led to significant delays in public call management and reporting, undermining the agility and competitiveness of Serbia's agricultural sector.
- #3
Scalability Gaps
Existing tools lacked capacity to handle multilingual content, high-traffic analytics, or secure file storage.
- #4
Inequitable Access
Offline and paper-based processes excluded vulnerable groups—especially those in rural areas—from accessing critical agricultural funding and opportunities.
- #5
Search Limitations
The need for a dynamic, real-time search engine to efficiently index and retrieve diverse datasets across the platform.
Scope
• Multi-Tenant Cloud Platform: Developed a unified web platform with separate, role-based interfaces for farmers (React.js) and administrators (Vue.js), ensuring secure and scalable access.
• Multi-Layered Data Architecture: Implemented MySQL clustering for transactional data, Redis caching for performance, and AWS S3 for secure, scalable file storage. • Advanced Search Engine: Integrated the ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) within Kubernetes to provide real-time, intelligent search and filtering across all datasets.
• AI-Powered Automation: Deployed NLP-driven translation services to support Serbian, English, and Hungarian, and automated notifications via Twilio for improved communication.
• Analytics and Dashboards: Set up Google Analytics 4 and custom dashboards to track engagement, resource usage, and regional impact-supporting data-driven decision-making.
