𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 - 𝙃𝙤𝙤𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙤𝙤𝙧𝙣 𝙂𝙧𝙤𝙬𝙩𝙝 𝙈𝙖𝙣𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 During Propagate Experience we introduce innovations/products/services that significantly impact the market, with the goal of providing knowledge about how those innovations/products/services benefit the (end) user. In the coming weeks, we will introduce all the participants of Propagate Experience and what they have to offer to make you a better propagator. Today, Hoogendoorn Growth Management 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗹𝗴𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗺𝘀 Hoogendoorn Growth Management has introduced their new Intelligent Algorithms plugin, which is from now on available to all customers using the Hoogendoorn IIVO. The new Intelligent Algorithms are developed to help growers and propagators grow young plants in a more data-driven and autonomous way by controlling the right humidity and Light/Temperature balance according to the Plant Empowerment Principles. With this software, the number of settings is reduced and simplified largely. Settings Like Desired DLI (Daily Light Integral), Photoperiod and RTR (Ratio Temperature to Radiation) are simplifying the daily controls of the grower. In this way, the crop activity and the vegetative/generative balance of the plant are supported in a more consistent and repeatable way.

From in-cab displays to AutoTrac and AutoPath systems, as well as new farm management systems and data management tools, technology is changing how farmers optimize their operations. Data allows farms to reduce input waste, save money, and conserve resources – all while creating better work experiences for the farmers who are the backbone of this industry. From paper to precision, this article explores how farmers are improving their operations by using technology and software in the field…

Have you heard of "Industry 5.0" (referring to the fifth industrial revolution)? I hadn't until half an hour ago. The food industry is transitioning to a new stage, Industry Version 5.0 This technologically driven progress succeeds Food Industry 4.0, which has been characterised by the fusion of physical, biological and digital advances in food science and technology. Version 5.0 demands greater reliance on multidisciplinary implementation of innovations, including advanced artificial intelligence, Internet of Everything, edge computing, robotics and other technologies. The three main pillars of Industry 5.0 are human-centricity, sustainability, and resilience. If you can spare 5 minutes to read the abstract & introduction of the attached link you will get a good idea about this emerging industrial phase. https://lnkd.in/grMnJ48j

🌾 5 Key Factors Beyond ROI Calculators for Ag Tech Investments 🌾 As growers evaluate ag technology investments, an ROI calculator is a common tool, but it only tells part of the story. Growers may miss out on the bigger picture by focusing solely on cost-saving. Here are five key factors growers should consider for a more comprehensive view of technology’s impact on their operations: 🔧 Optimization Check your current displays and software. Are they up-to-date? Regular updates can improve efficiency and save money in the long run. Make sure you're not missing out on new features! 🛡️ Safety Assess your spraying systems. Do you have tech that reduces chemical exposure and the risk of spills? Simple upgrades, like automated sprayer systems, can prevent costly accidents and fines. 📊 Efficiency If you’re spending too much time on data entry, it’s time to automate! Invest in a data management solution that centralizes tractor and field data, freeing up your team for other tasks. 🔄 Flexibility  Review your fertilizer management. If you haven’t already, consider investing in VRT to adjust inputs and prepare for market fluctuations. You’ll gain control over your input costs. 🌱 Growth Rate Have an honest chat with your team or farm partner about plans. Is it time to scale up? If so, align your tech investments with upcoming needs, like succession planning or expanding operations. #AgTech #PrecisionAgriculture #FarmEfficiency #Sustainability #ROI #Innovation #Agremo

Sharing this insightful article on how AI is transforming coffee production for small farmers! This technology holds immense potential for revolutionizing agricultural practices in Haiti, particularly for our beloved Haitian coffee. By integrating AI, we can enhance crop yields, optimize resources, and ultimately improve the livelihoods of our local farmers. Imagine the impact on our coffee-growing communities! So much potential going to waste. We will see we can introduce this with FNGA in the Grand Anse area. Let’s hope the best for the future.

AgTech is rapidly expanding, making it essential to stay ahead of the curve. This guide examines trends and innovations in the modern Agtech landscape. https://hubs.la/Q02wPr5f0

Drought is a significant stressor in plants and if prolonged, it can eventually cause plants to become discoloured, wilt and die, resulting in lower crop yield for farmers. SMART's Disruptive & Sustainable Technologies for Agricultural Precision (DiSTAP) interdisciplinary research group (IRG), in collaboration with Temasek Life Sciences Laboratory (TLL) and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), have pioneered the world’s first Covalent Organic Framework (COF) sensors integrated within silk fibroin (SF) microneedles for detection of drought stress in plants. This advanced technology can detect pH changes, specifically a reduction in acidity in plant xylem tissues, providing early warning of drought stress in plants up to 48 hours before traditional methods. This breakthrough can potentially allow farmers to optimise crop production and yield by mitigating drought stress.

We wanted to take a look at how technology can play a role in helping out agricultural businesses. So we wrote a piece about how tech can be used to enhance existing tools to help business make more sense of the data they hold. Where business have not integrated little or not tech, it also shows how tech can be used to help create and manage business processes. Leveraging Technology to Tackle Key Issues in the Agriculture Sector How can you face the challenges of the agriculture sector using digital tools to help make more use of your business information? https://lnkd.in/eJ6cSaWt
