Leading the global AgTech revolution, AGRIVI has launched its innovative solution, Ed, an artificial intelligence (AI) driven agronomic advisory assistant designed to digitalize and streamline agricultural practices. The revolutionary tool aims to equip farmers worldwide with the comprehensive agronomic support needed to produce more efficiently, sustainably, and profitably.
With a history of championing agricultural digitalization, AGRIVI has developed this tool to cater to small and medium-sized farms, which account for approximately 98% of global farms and have primarily remained unconnected to the digital revolution. Recognizing the crucial role of technology in addressing agricultural challenges, AGRIVI’s solution is an effort to bring these farms into the digital age and enable data-driven decision-making.
Matija Zulj, AGRIVI’s CEO, emphasized the importance of supporting the large portion of global agriculture represented by smaller farms. “Ed signifies the culmination of our efforts to empower farmers and propel agricultural transformation. By leveraging artificial intelligence and the expertise of our global team of agronomists and AgTech experts, we have developed a top-notch AI agronomic advisor available for support anytime, anywhere.”
Ed’s uniqueness lies in its availability through the AGRIVI Engage platform, allowing agriculture-related companies to offer their custom version of Ed to farmers within their ecosystem. AGRIVI aims to strengthen the relationships between agricultural companies and farmers by providing a white-label AI agronomic advisor, promoting cooperative change within the industry.
Ed’s capabilities are underpinned by expert AI consultancy, backed by a team of global agronomists, AgTech, and IT specialists. It offers informed advice on topics such as optimal seed selection, suitable crop protection products for specific pests or diseases, insights on fertilizers and regenerative practices, crop insurance, financing options, and practices that lead to the best crop quality.
Adding to Ed’s appeal is its accessibility. AGRIVI acknowledges that not all farmers are proficient with complex digital agricultural solutions, and has made Ed available through the popular messaging platform, WhatsApp. Ed can communicate in over 50 languages, ensuring an effortless and effective advisory experience.
The roll-out of Ed is imminent, with early adopters in the agri-food value chain ready to introduce their customized advisors soon. Companies keen on harnessing this innovative tool can utilize the AGRIVI Engage platform’s fully managed service for a smooth integration of their personalized Ed within weeks.
AGRIVI remains committed to revolutionizing the way food is produced. The introduction of Ed marks a significant stride towards this goal, as it provides farmers with the knowledge and guidance necessary to optimize farming practices, boost productivity, and contribute to a more sustainable agricultural sector.
