We shared an interesting Smart Agri article earlier this week about rooibos production and how FruitLook can assist rooibos producers in an environment of uncertainty, change and complexity. This week we share a quote from that article to depict the value the FruitLook tool holds for farmers in the Western Cape.
In case you missed it, you can read the full case study here:

At PANI, we're passionate about creating change from the ground up by experimenting, learning, and replicating our successes.
Recently, we've been exploring ways to boost farmers' incomes through innovative intercropping techniques.
Meet Avani (name changed), one of the many farmers who took this journey with us. Avani dared to try something unconventional: intercropping groundnut with sugarcane. With PANI's support, she navigated this unique method, and the results were incredible!
1. Achieved the national average productivity for groundnut.
2. Earned additional income without any damage to her sugarcane crop.
3. Demonstrated that this technique is not only achievable but also scalable and sustainable.
What can be accomplished when we act to innovate and support our farmers, Avani is a witness herself!
Let’s celebrate Avani's success and the power of innovative farming.
Together we are making a real difference!

Our CEO, Diarmaid Mac Colgáin, shares insights on the agri news:
📣 ARYZTA created a #NetZero bread, but it went unsold. What's the takeaway? Consumers may not be ready to fully embrace the cost of #sustainability.
📣 At the Global Agritech Investment Assembly - GAIA in Oxford last week, it was evident that follow-on funding for agritech companies hinges on proven customer bases. This poses challenges for farmers investing in agritech solutions amidst high production costs.
📣 How will the Belview plant in Co. Kilkenny affect Tirlán milk prices? Will they be able to beat the West Cork Co-Ops in terms of milk price?

What happens when the passion for farming and produce meets the culinary creativity of an F&B innovator?
Story-time ⬇️
At our 7-year strong flagship event, "Ab Kisan Bolega" (loosely translated to: Now the Farmer Will Speak), we heard a powerful message from a farmer who has embraced innovation:
"There are enough examples out there; we just need to pick the right ones."
This resonated deeply with us at KIWI Kisan Window. Innovation in agriculture isn't always about reinventing the wheel. It's about adapting successful practices to your local context, learning from those who have walked the path before you.
This farmer also highlighted the importance of government policies and support systems. While accessing these resources may require effort and persistence, they are crucial for agricultural advancement.
His message underscores a fundamental truth: The future of agriculture is not in waiting for solutions to appear, but in taking action.
It's about learning from existing examples, leveraging available resources, and relentlessly pursuing progress.
At #KiwiKisanWindow, we believe in empowering farmers with the knowledge and tools to navigate these systems, ensuring they receive the support they deserve.
We're actively working to bridge this information gap by:
→ Providing accessible resources: We're creating simplified guides and workshops to help farmers understand and navigate relevant policies and support programs.
→ Facilitating connections: We're connecting farmers with experts and government officials who can provide guidance and support.
→ Advocating for change: We're actively engaging with policymakers to ensure that agricultural policies and support systems are farmer-friendly and effective.
We believe that by empowering farmers with the right information, we can help them leverage available resources and unlock their full potential. This, in turn, will lead to a more sustainable and prosperous agricultural sector for all.
The farmer's message at "Ab Kisan Bolega" serves as a powerful reminder that the future of agriculture lies in collaboration and empowerment.
At Kiwi Kisan Window, we're proud to be part of this journey, working alongside farmers to build a brighter future for Indian agriculture.

Traian Dogar, Banat Agri Group: Flexibility, Digitalization, and Efficiency - the 3 conditions for Future-Ready Agriculture.
"At Banat Agri Group, we believe that we must be prepared for any situation encountered in the field. All technologies have advantages and disadvantages and must be adapted to the specifics and constraints of each plot or area.
Moreover, digitalization is mandatory for medium and large farms. It enables informed decision-making with accurate and precise data obtained in real time.
We are all actors in a highly competitive market characterized by instability generated by geopolitical, climatic, and legislative factors. Cost efficiency plays a crucial role in ensuring survival."
This message is part of the communication campaign "Future-Ready Agriculture," organized on the occasion of the 8th edition of RALF - European Large Farmers Forum, which will take place on November 8 in Bucharest.

Meet Mr Chetan Dattatrya Deshmukh, a grape farmer from Nasik, who revolutionised his vineyard with SoilSens!
For over 15 years, Mr Deshmukh struggled with management of soil nutrition, particularly during the critical fruiting stage. Traditional soil testing methods were either too slow or too costly, causing delays and potential income loss. But in January 2024, everything changed when he adopted the SoilSens Nutrisens device.
"Using SoilSens has been incredibly beneficial for my vineyard. The instant soil data during the fruiting stage helped me identify a potassium deficiency, allowing me to apply potash immediately. This timely action resulted in a significantly better grape yield," says Mr Deshmukh.
With SoilSens’ on-field soil tests, he received accurate results instantly which helped him address the nutrient deficiency promptly. This prevented a potential income loss of INR 60,000 to INR 70,000, optimised fertiliser use and improved overall soil health.
Mr Deshmukh's story is a testament to the power of innovative agri-tech solutions. SoilSens is #FarmingForTheFuture by empowering farmers to adopt sustainable practices, improve their yields, and enhance farm profitability.
