About
Inagros is a platform that connects the farmer and the agronomist, providing real-time data from the crop. Through its tools, it allows the agronomist to remotely monitor his clients' crops, keep record of them and assign tasks to be performed (spraying, fertilizing, etc.) . The automation of the irrigation system and alerting in case of damage is also possible. The use of sensors and satellite data are complementary to the basic tools of the platform (from a variety of manufacturers). Furthermore, the system responds to the needs of companies with contract farming, municipalities and green facilities.
Solution & Product
Agriculture is the most important source of food nowadays, and demand for food is expected to double in the next thirty years. Farmers have to overcome many obstacles in order to maximize crop productivity and their income (careful use of fertilizers, efficient irrigation management, reduced pesticide use, more efficient management and organization of time spent by farmers in crops). Issues that need to be addressed immediately, through the connection of the technology and the farmers. Inagros solves this problem by bringing technology closer to the farmer, while technical difficulties are tackled by an intermediate agronomist and optimization algorithms.
Innovation & Scalability
Inagros is designed to fit in the needs of the farmers. The system can be used in any type of crop, and to any irrigation system regardless of age. In addition, agronomists play a key role, as they are our allies, not our competitors. An agronomist can observe crops far more effectively than any artificial intelligence system. Furthermore, the installation, as well as the service of the hardware, is carried out by a qualified electrical engineering staff, so that the farmer does not have to spend more time in the field.
Traction & achievements
So far we have 78 users, 4 agronomist partners and we have trained 47 famers (precesion famring workshops). Our system was installed and tested in the National Garden of Athens, too.
Team & Why Us
Our team consists of 9 people with all needed specialities (business wise, marketing, agronomists, mechanics, designers). The key factor in the group is our vision: Everyone is looking for the farmer of the future to find solutions and feed us in the following years, but we do not think about the present farmer and how he will evolve. Our vision is to be part of this process.
Funding Needs
Seed funding in order to invest in business development and marketing.
A technological tool aiming to optimize the crop productivity, water and energy consumption.
