Features

Consult Sentinel-2 satellite images with vigor, water stress and chlorophyll indices, to assess crop health and plan monitoring activities.

Register where, how and when cultivation operations (irrigation, transplanting, treatments and partial/total harvesting) were performed. You can also access the Fitogest® database of agrochemicals.

Create and assign to each crop its own production lot to improve traceability of operations. A QR code is also generated that allows you to access and share the dedicated web page where you can consult all the information on the product.

Monitor the economic (yield, production) and environmental (water consumption, input control and farm biodiversity) sustainability indicators of your farm. You can set the level to be reached for each indicator and monitor how the work is going.

Prediction of the number of leaves, flowering percentage and height development of the crop to assess its needs.

Evaluation of water requirements to carry out irrigation when necessary with the right amount of water.

Calculation of the total nitrogenphosphorus and potassium needs (Kg/ha) required by the crop in order to obtain important suggestions on the doses of fertilizer to be applied.
