Cogrowers has an innovative platform that is revolutionizing the way farmers deal with frost and account for cold buildup. With a focus on sustainability and resource efficiency, this system offers growers an invaluable tool to make informed and accurate decisions in frost management.
The platform focuses on real-time analysis of temperature at critical moments, to determine the opportune moment in which a producer must take measures to control a frost in a specific sector of his field.
“Through accurate and up-to-date data, the platform allows farmers to make the best decision to optimize the use of resources in frost control,” argues Matías Navarrete, co-founder of Cogrowers.
One of the outstanding advantages of the Cogrowers platform is its ease of use and quick installation. It is specifically designed to focus on the monitoring and analysis of agroclimatic parameters. In addition, it stands out for its flexibility in payment, allowing farmers to use the platform only when necessary, which represents a significant cost saving.
Another aspect to highlight is that the Cogrowers platform becomes the producer's "eyes" in the orchard, providing relevant information for the producer's decision-making, through alerts and daily reports via phone call and/or WhatsApp, without having to consult the platform.
“The system takes into account the portions of cold, which is crucial information requested by agricultural advisors to have a clear control of the accumulation of cold in different sectors of the orchard,” argues Pedro Figueroa, head of business at Cogrowers.
“Our platform starts counting on May 1st - when it is considered that there are 50% of fallen leaves - in particular cases it can be selected, based on what the producer tells us about which day he wants to start counting the cold hours and we adjust the system, but by default it is May 1st,” adds Pedro Figueroa.
Cogrowers has had an outstanding reception in the cherry industry, demonstrating its commitment to the quality of its services, ensuring the reliability of the data obtained in the orchard.
This innovative Cogrowers platform has been well received by farmers, who find it a valuable ally to combat frost and optimize their agricultural production.
With its focus on sustainability and efficiency, Cogrowers continues to establish itself as a leading agricultural technology company, providing solutions that make a significant difference.
