Monitoring Systems For Beekeeping And Industry 4.0

    The Industry 4.0 plan is now on everyone's lips. As of 2019, the calls dedicated to this area of intervention have also been extended to the agricultural sector, which until then had been excluded from these funding measures. But what are these subsidies and what expenses are included?

    Industry 4.0: What does it mean?

    The Industry 4.0 plan is designed to realise the great aspiration of radically changing the world of work and the logic of production in our country. The aim of these measures is to gradually accompany the Italian business fabric in what everyone now knows as the fourth industrial revolution. This is why economic incentives and facilities of various kinds come into play to enable companies to modernise, embracing new technologies and new methods of managing and organising their work.

    What are the benefits

    Industry 4.0 grants tax relief in the form of tax credits. This concerns investments by companies in tangible and intangible assets. For all investments in tangible 4.0 assets up to 2022, the applicant company can get a tax credit equal to 40 per cent of the cost of the investments made for investments up to EUR 2.5 million. This contribution can then be used to offset expenses made via F24 for the payment of, for example, VAT, IMU and direct taxes. The 3Bee Hive-Tech remote monitoring and IoT diagnostics system is a clear example of highly innovative technology enabling 4.0 management of the apiary and beekeeping activity. Precisely because of this, it is fully covered by Industry 4.0.

    What are the issues

    This path is not as simple as it may seem at first sight. Our research in the field has revealed the complexities of the application and reporting procedures. The support of a specialist is certainly necessary because mistakes can cost dearly. Tax assessments can be carried out up to the eighth year following the granting of the benefit and the penalties are very severe. They can even reach 180% of the higher tax owed or the difference in the tax credit used. Some consultants also recommend paying particular attention to the expenses reported. "The tax credit is almost always paid out. However, the responsibility will always lie with the person receiving the tax credit, not with the accountant or even the company providing the asset'.

    The 3Bee solution

    3Bee can make its consultants available for this type of practice, but it has also devised a new way of accessing these highly innovative, high-tech products without having to go through all the red tape of calls for tenders and funding. Precisely because of the importance of introducing these technologies in the beekeeping sector, 3Bee has devised a specific subscription plan to meet these needs. With the payment of a small annual fee, only 85€/year, vat included, you can have the complete Hive-Tech monitoring system at your disposal immediately, including GPS and solar panel for battery charging, assistance always included! Ask for more information and make an appointment with our consultant Fabrizio to get all the details on this new purchase method!
