Audit of food and agricultural
business with
independent experts should be made even in
successful agricultural companies and farms, even if you have very qualified
and reliable staff. This brings high profits and increases efficiency!

Local personnel
in agricultural business, as
well as farmers, are usually very busy with work and simply are not able to
see how work is organized for other successful farmers, especially abroad.
And a good expert travels a lot, communicates with many successful farmers
and sees the features and competitive advantages of doing agricultural
business with other farmers and in many countries, so he can always
recommend certain improvements even for the best agricultural business

Yield
forecasting
-
monitoring of fields allows you to correctly
forecast yields based on the biological parameters of plants and density
and correctly
calculate the rates of fertilizers, pesticides and
agrochemicals - based on these data, effectively calculate
the amount of investment, and save / safe very substantial money
-
allows you to determine the yield in advance - to
calculate how much approximately grain or another yield will be received
-
allows you to correctly calculate important
economic parameters
-
allows you to determine whether everything is going
as it should and if the planned parameters will be received
-
allows you to identify possible risks in advance

-
crop monitoring to forecast of
yield
-
monitoring of fields with

-
monitoring and survey the
timeliness and quality of technological operations
-

What are the objectives of the
audit in agriculture:
-
Real-time fields and asset monitoring
-
Control and correction of the use of financial (investment) funds and
the use of resources
-
Identification of problem areas in the fields and in agribusiness in
general
-
Profit from timely identified problems and their prophylactics
-
Analysis of the results of the use of drones, verification of problems
identified from the air. Clarification of the causes of problems and
their solution. Diagnosis and preparation of the right agronomy
recommendations

Never flying around the fields with a drone alone will not
replace the work and advice of a good professional agronomist!
You can see the presence of a problem from the air, but only a
professional expert can understand this problem, its causes, and write out
“treatment” or preventive measures!

Audit of
horticulture
and crop production and monitoring of the condition and development
of crops allow solving the following problems:
-
as a result
of the work, agricultural diagnostics and audit, you can get the
information necessary to increase the profitability of the
business and increase business efficiency
-
allows you
to get the latest information on the status of fields or future
yield
-
prevent
losses from pests and diseases
-
qualitative
assessment of the state of crops at various stages of vegetation
-
quick
assessment of the state of crops in each field throughout the
growing season
-
quality
control of technological operations and resource consumption
-
assessment
of field germination and dencity of crops
-
evaluation
of the quality of tillage
-
assessment
of the current state of crops
-
crop
ripening assessment and yield prediction
-
monitoring
the timing and pace of harvesting crops
-
identification of negative impact factors for crops (personnel
actions, drought, soaking, hail, freezing, pests, etc.) and
prompt assessment of the risks of crop death from adverse
factors combination
-
identification of fields having deviations from normal
development, assessment and systematization of such fields
(including the identification of facts of the presence of
diseases and pests, the presence of which leads to a decrease or
complete loss of yield)
-
control of
information on sowing areas and availability of crops
-
monitoring
the work of personnel in the fields (it is very important that
the audit is carried out by an independent party and there is no
influence of various subjective factors - for example, local
specialists often refer to the action of various factors that
actually did not exist or their effect was actually different: "
it didn’t come up "," it froze "," the pests ate "," the
aftereffect of herbicides ", etc., etc. Independent monitoring
just allows us to determine what really happened and prepare
decision)
-
identification of various technological errors and other points
where profit is lost
-
selection
of the best fields as a deposit and for insurance
-
work with
complaints, preparation of an independent Expert Reports
-
significant
risks reduction

The purpose of monitoring of
agricultural fields and crops is to obtain additional profit and prevent
losses from various pests (weeds, pests, diseases), which personnel and
farmers often do not notice due to ignorance and other reasons.

The main directions of
agronomic monitoring are identification in the fields and in the soil:
-
diseases
-
no infectious
diseases, lack of plant nutrients
-
pests
-
weed
-
nematodes
-
rodents
-
development of
operational recommendations for the control of diseases, pests and
weeds.

Agronomic monitoring makes it possible to
predict and control the development and spread of diseases and pests,
determine their number and possible control measures by
using the correct and effective
Integrated Pest Management
system
or biological control methods.
During monitoring, field diagnostics are
carried out:
-
entomological
(pests)
-
herbiological
(weeds)
-
phytopathological
(diseases)
-
non-infectious
diseases and lack of plant nutrients
-
human factor actions
and disorders

Entomological diagnostics -
detection of pests in fields of crops, determination of their stages of
development and the number of pests, providing recommendations for
protecting plants from pests.

Diagnostics and management of weeds
- determination of the species composition of weeds and their quantity in
fields, providing recommendations on protecting plants from weeds.

Diagnostics - detection of diseases in
fields,
determination of their stages and level of damage, provision of
recommendations for protecting plants from diseases.

Monitoring is planned in advance so that timely measures
can be taken to control pests, diseases and weeds, as well as plan
appropriate investments.
It is advisable to conduct such field surveys as often
as possible (preferably every few days).
On the timing of field inspections and monitoring, it
is better to consult with experts in advance and agree for everything. Also
possible ONLINE service!

For example, compiling
a map of the weeds based on survey allows you to know which weeds are
present in fields of agricultural company.
This is very important when buying herbicides - as it
saves a lot of money.

corn) as part of the audit of crop production in one of the
agricultural companies. It is very
important to harvest in the shortest possible time, to prevent losses and
theft of the crop, to properly organize the logistics and drying of grain (Photo

Independent control of the quality of crops and the quality of field works
is very important to obtain long-term and stable results and increase the
efficiency of agribusiness
