Using Technology to Streamline Operations


We continually adopt new technologies and enhance our systems to improve efficiency and streamline our operations. Such technologies include soil moisture probes, weather stations, canopy sensors, flow meters and dam level sensors, which are linked via web-based platforms providing real-time data. Additionally, we have developed custom in-house database solutions and mobile applications to enhance our farm management practices. For example, our GPS mapped scouting and phenology records assist with pest management, disease control and the implementation of targeted control measures, while also providing valuable insights into the timing of the crop's growth stages. Our custom-developed mobile application called JOGS (Jacoma Operations and Grower Software) facilitates timely and accurate data collection on smallholder farmers, aiding traceability from farmers to end consumers.
