farmNXT - Greenhouse Management Software

Greenhouses are high-tech production facilities for producing vegetables, flowers, fruits and transplants. To achieve higher yields and returns, one must optimize parameters such as, temperature, light and shade, irrigation, fertilization, pollination, humidity and labor. Apart from these usual day-to-day factors, greenhouse operators face the challenges of production planning, setting clear objectives, tracking the status of crops and orders, packaging, shipping, transportation, inventory management and labor tracking. farmNXT™ has the most comprehensive greenhouse management software available. Our product was developed based on our team’s years of experience with owning and operating large commercial greenhouses. farmNXT™ has the following features to enable you to manage the operations smoothly and to help farmers enhance profitability and efficiency.

Urban Farming Software

Urban farms are high-tech farms that typically are setup in buildings in urban areas. Produce is grown in stacks in many cases with no soil or sunlight. These farms utilize artificial lighting, climate control and in many cases hydroponics. Hydroponics involves suspending plants in a medium such as gravel, wool or perlite (a form of volcanic glass). The roots are immersed in a solution of nutrient-rich water. The nutrients and water that are not consumed by the roots can be recycled, rather than being lost into the soil. A constant flow of air is maintained to supply carbon dioxide to the plants. It is now possible to tailor the temperature, humidity, lighting, airflow and nutrient conditions to get the best productivity out of plants year round; anywhere in the world. The technology of hydroponics allows almost any kind of plant to be grown in nutrient-rich water, from root crops like radishes and potatoes to fruit such as melons and even cereals like maize.

farmNXT - Open Field Cultivation Software

Open cultivation is a conventional method of farming. The vast majority of farmers grow produce in open fields. This farming method has its own set of challenges. Farmers have to cope with changes in climate, fluctuations in nature, pest and disease attacks, eroding soil health and depleting water tables. In order to be competitive in global scenarios, farmers need more than spreadsheets and notebooks to manage farms. farmNXT™ enables progressive farmers to manage farms with ease and profitability.

Floriculture Software

Flowers are one of the traditional crops grown in the protected environments of greenhouses. Floriculture has seen rapid growth and according to the Dutch Association of Wholesale Trade in Horticulture Products (VGB), the total value of the global cut flower market reached $31-Billion in 2011. farmNXT™– Floriculture allows floriculture operations to be efficiently measured, tracked, scheduled and managed to achieve optimal utilization of resources and maximize returns.

Contract Farming Software

Contract farming has been one of the mainstays of commercial agricultural production. It benefits both farmers and processing/marketing companies. farmNXT™ supports contract farming by enabling managed technical support, optimizing cultivation practices, and scheduling material inputs. This ensures profitable crop prices for farmers, and consistent and predictable supply of crops for clients.
