Features
Field mapping
Geolocate the field on the map and draw it. Features will be immediately hooked. You can enable the cadastral map and enter sheet and parcel information.
Satellite imagery
Consult Sentinel-2 satellite images with vigor, water stress and chlorophyll indices to promptly identify critical areas in the vineyard.
Crop operations
Register where, how and when cultivation operations (treatments, fertilization, pruning and harvest) were performed. You can also access the Fitogest® database of agrochemicals.
Production lots
Create and assign to each crop its own production lot to improve traceability of operations. A QR code is also generated that allows you to access and share the dedicated web page where you can consult all the information on the product.
Sustainability
Monitor the economic (yield, production) and environmental (water consumption, input control and farm biodiversity) sustainability indicators of your farm. You can set the level to be reached for each indicator and monitor how the work is going.
Weather forecasts
Consult professional weather forecasts up to 7 days updated every hour: temperature, humidity, wind speed, rainfall.
Phenology forecast model
Prediction of phenology to assess vineyard needs in each development stage.
Ripening forecast model
Prediction of ripening to identify the best time for harvest and produce excellent wine.
Irrigation forecast model
Evaluation of water requirements to carry out irrigation when necessary with the right amount of water.
Fertilization forecast model
Calculation of the total nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium needs (Kg/ha) required by the crop in order to obtain important suggestions on the doses of fertilizer to be applied.
Frost forecast model
Frost forecast to know in advance (up to 5 days before) the harmful climatic event and the type of risk.
Pest and diseases forecast model
Prediction of infestation and diseases to assess the risk of pest (Lobesia botrana) and diseases (Peronospora, Powdery mildew, Botrytis cinerea) and act promptly.
Decision support
Suggest operations to be carried out based on collected data.
Crop scouting
Geolocate and register data from crop scouting by using the Agricolus’s app for phytosanitary monitoring and evaluation of quality and quantity.
Task management
Create and assign the activities to be carried out in the company to your collaborators in real time.
Weather stations
Virtual weather station included; physical weather stations and sensors can be purchased or integrated, if already present in the company.
Yield and quality monitoring
Bunches count, thinning estimate, potential alcohol calculation and ripening index.
Prescription maps
Choose the most suitable vegetation index to draw up the prescription map and carry out a variable rate fertilization.
Machinery
Register your agricultural machinery, any problems and maintenance carried out. You can also connect them to Agricolus by using Agrirouter.
