Dr. Ricardus Anggi Pramunendar successfully obtained funding through a research grant from DRTPM under the Strategic Research Collaboration or Kolaborasi Penelitian Strategis (KATALIS) scheme in 2024. The research members are Prof. Dr. Pulung Nurtantio Andono and Dr. Farrikh Al Zami. The KATALIS scheme is research in the form of a consortium consisting of 3-4 research teams from different universities. The research conducted by Dr. Ricardus involves collaboration with Universitas Lambung Mangkurat and Universitas Sari Mulia.
The consortium's research, titled ‘Presisi Pertanian untuk Ketahanan Pertanian terhadap Perubahan Iklim’, aims to support more resilient agriculture in the face of global climate change challenges. In the KATALIS, each consortium team is required to produce at least one publication in a reputable international journal as a research output. This initiative demonstrates a commitment to increasing Indonesia's scientific contribution to supporting agricultural innovation through cross-institutional collaboration. The success of obtaining this grant is an important step for Dr. Ricardus and his research team in their efforts to realize sustainable and climate change-resistant precision agriculture.
