Crop Monitoring Services
Smart4Farmer - Crop Health Monitoring Services
With this service, the producer is given information about the health status of the crop. The information is given by obtaining data from the crop with drone or satellite images, or obtained from sensors. The processed data inform us of useful parameters for the producer, such as the Photosynthetic Activity of the Plant, the Moisture contained in the Plant, the temperature, or the hydration status, or water stress of the plant, etc. The parameters are analyzed with different criteria for each crop, and recommendations for irrigation, treatments, or alerts of possible problems are generated. The frequency of analysis will be determined by the crop: In horticultural crops, information is generated every 5 days, while in some tree species, with a slower vegetative development, it may be enough every 20 days. The plantation is generally monitored throughout the season, from planting to harvest.
Crop2Yield - Yield and Quality Prediction Services
Knowing the typical evolutions of each crop, and based on Artificial Intelligence nerural networks, we have developed prediction models, to make forecasts of the production in tons of certain crops, and even of the quality parameters. The fact that producers, especially large producers, can know in advance what productions they are going to obtain, allows them to negotiate prices, plan contracts, or organize the harvesting machinery or transport logistics.
Smart4Factory - Services for Agri-food Industry
If we know the estimated yield and the ideal harvest date for a farm, and the same applies to all farms that supply a first-stage agri-food industry, we can provide information to the industry on the expected inputs for each moment. This allows factories to plan start-up of production lines, to know the number of trucks they will need at any given time, to organize staff shifts, to know in advance the total expected productions, etc. This service also allows data analysis of a large number of farms to be carried out globally, to find behavior patterns in those farms that are producing higher production or quality, and replicate them in those that are having a less adequate behavior. Or conversely, detect problems in advance, and anticipate them to prevent them from reproducing on other farms.
Soil Characterization Services
Map2Soil - Soil Services
This service provides us with useful information about the soil of our farm for different purposes. We pass through the entire farm a sensor capable of measuring the Apparent Electrical Conductivity at different depths. Next, we perform a guided sampling based on the sensor data. Then, we analyze the samples obtained in the field in the laboratory. From the field and laboratory data, the zoning of the plot is carried out and the different maps are obtained that will give us the necessary information on the parameters necessary for soil management. It is the service called “MAP2SOIL”, to generate maps of different parameters of areas with different types of soil in the same plot. Within the same farm there are always very different soils. If precision agriculture is not applied, the entire farm is treated equally with very heterogeneous results. On the contrary, knowing each type of soil allows us to manage the areas that are different in a different and more efficient way.
