SmartFarm

What is it?

SmartFarm by AppsforAgri BV is an agricultural application and sensor system that provides growers and agronomists with ultra-local weather forecasts and AI-driven disease alerts.

Relying on regional weather forecasts for critical farm operations is highly risky; weather conditions can vary drastically across a few miles, meaning a regional forecast might completely miss the specific humidity or temperature spike occurring in a farmer's plot. This lack of localized data makes it nearly impossible to accurately predict disease outbreaks or time the spraying of crop protection products efficiently. SmartFarm resolves this by deploying the FieldMate sensor directly into the crop. Measuring ultra-local temperature, humidity, and soil temperature between the plants, the system feeds this data into AI-driven models to generate highly specific advice and alerts.

Why use it?

Using an ultra-local weather and sensor system allows farmers to maintain a healthy crop while actively minimizing the use of expensive plant protection products. The FieldMate sensor provides the precise plot-specific data needed to plan daily agricultural activities safely, ensuring that spraying is only done during optimal conditions. Crucially, the platform's Disease Alert System utilizes this local data to proactively warn users about the specific risks of over 150 diseases across more than 60 crops. This early warning enables growers to respond to the current microclimate situation immediately, preventing severe crop damage before it occurs.
