It’s been ten seasons, a decade!, since SatAgro went online. During this time, we have managed to create from scratch a platform that is well recognised in Poland and has a very interesting track record of digitizing hundreds of farms, satellite monitoring and crop optimization. This alone is a good reason to celebrate, but this year is also special for us because we have returned to a pathway of growth after a difficult two years. Previously, after seven seasons of rapid growth, we hit a low point. The main causes of the slowdown were the Covid-19 pandemic, followed by Russia’s…

We have reached the moment when the state administration is subsidizing individual farms in implementing the type of agriculture to which we have devoted the last decade of our lives. “Supporting Farmers’ Investments in Agriculture 4.0” is the new measure, managed by the Agency for Restructuring and Modernisation of Agriculture (ARMA), supported from the EU’s Recovery and Resilience Facility. It is a unique opportunity to raise the technological level of the farm, and consequently increase its profitability. On this occasion, we decided to share our vision on the fundamentals of Agriculture 4.0, which reflects our years of experience in supporting…

Mozambique is considered one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change. Extreme events such as floods and prolonged droughts threaten the food security and economic stability of the population, especially in rural areas. The main objective of the GERHARA project is to develop innovative strategies focused on improving water management by the Administrações Regionais de Águas de Moçambique (ARAs) and thereby enhancing resilience to climate change in Mozambique. A particular emphasis has been placed on the agricultural sector, where multiple initiatives have been undertaken to address challenges related to water access and water resources management in the country. The…

From now on, the optimisation of fertiliser use enters another level of rationality. Firstly, precision treatments are tied in with a fertilisation plan. Second, fertilisation plans take into account variability in yield, soil nutrient abundance and past treatments. Third, when planning an individual treatment, you get an instant feedback on the extent into which it fulfils the plan. Fourth, the plan is compatible with the new CAP’s eco-scheme, so not only do you implement variable rate application, but also your costs are also more than covered.  It must be said that when it comes to nutrient management, we have taken…

Correct crop rotation is one of the most important basic techniques in agriculture. It involves planning the cultivation of different types of plants on the same plot of land over several years. Mostly, the main aim of the practice is to enrich soil biodiversity and increase crop yields in a suitable rotation.
