Yield and inputs
Variable-rate application and field-level forecasting that reduce input cost per tonne.
Industry
Agriculture & food
Farms, processors, and food supply — thin margins, volatile inputs, growing demand.
Where we start
Agriculture operates on biological timescales with financial margins that leave little room for error. Input costs, weather, and yield variability dominate the result.
The data now exists to manage that variability: field-level imagery, machinery telemetry, weather, and soil sensing. Turning it into decisions requires models that respect the agronomy, and interfaces that a farmer will actually use during a working day.
We work on yield, input efficiency, processing, and food supply chains, with an emphasis on adoption rather than novelty.
Typical results
- -14%
- input cost per tonne on managed hectares
- +8%
- processing yield at a food manufacturer
- 1 season
- to demonstrate field-level value
