The RetechFOR project is advancing the modernization of the hunting sector with the development of a telematic catch control system that allows real-time recording and management of hunting activity in the hunting grounds of Castile and León. This technological solution, created within the AG RetechFOR and developed by Cesefor, replaces the traditional system of physical seals with a completely digital model that is more agile, secure, and transparent.
The tool responds to a need identified by the Regional Government of Castile and León, and consists of a mobile application and a web platform that facilitate the immediate registration of catches by hunters, as well as their monitoring and validation by hunting ground managers and public authorities. This significantly improves the availability of reliable and consistent data, which is essential for efficient hunting management based on real information.
One of the main challenges facing the hunting sector is the lack of up-to-date and accurate information on catches, which makes it difficult to control quotas and make decisions. The telematic system developed at RetechFOR responds to this need, allowing for more rigorous control of catches and reinforcing the traceability and transparency of the entire process.
Among the most innovative features of CapturCyL, which is the name of the application, is the elimination of physical seals, replaced by a digital system that records information in real time and automatically shares it among all the agents involved. This digitization not only reduces administrative burdens, but also helps prevent irregular practices and strengthens society's confidence in hunting management.
This tool is expected to have a significant impact on the environment, society, and the economy. Better planning of hunting activities and greater control of quotas will promote more sustainable management of resources, while optimizing administrative processes and improving coordination between hunters, hunting ground managers, and the administration.
With this development, RetechFOR consolidates its commitment to technological innovation applied to the forestry and rural sectors, demonstrating how digitization can become a key lever for more efficient, transparent, and sustainable management of natural resources.
