Fertisat – a service compatible with agrirouter
Due to the upcoming call in the “Agriculture 4.0” program of the Polish Agency for Restructuring and Modernization of Agriculture, we would like to inform all farmers interested in purchasing a subscription of Fertisat that our service has a certificate of compliance with agrirouter standards and is included in the agrirouter Solution-Finder. Agrirouter is the most popular data exchange platform for smart farming in the EU, which enables seamless connectivity between software solutions, such as Fertisat, and agricultural machines from different manufacturers. It streamlines data exchange, including application maps, by eliminating the need to use USB flash drives in transferring data from farm computers or tablets to machine terminals. By achieving full compatibility with agrirouter, Fertisat users are also provided with bidirectional data transmission between our service and the agricultural machine, and such bidirectionality is a requirement for obtaining subsidies under the “Agriculture 4.0” programme.
We invite farmers interested in that program, as well as all those looking for a way to increase the efficiency of using N, P, K fertilizers, PPPs and seed material to contact us.
Evapotranspiration measurements of potato crops
Together with the harvest of potatoes in fields near Warsaw, we have ended the measurement season using our new device – a professional station measuring real evapotranspiration using the eddy covariance method. In Poland, only a few universities and research institutes have such advanced devices. The data on evapotranspiration of potato crops collected and analyzed by our team will be used for the further development of Irriget service. Thanks to the increased accuracy of estimating the water balance, we will be able to advise farmers more accurately on how to meet the irrigation needs of plants, which will translate into more effective and sustainable water management.
Our stands at Polish agricultural trade events in summer 2024
The upcoming events in the Polish agricultural sector at which we will be present: AGRO-TECH Fair in Minikowo (July 6-7), Potato Fair in Sępno in Wielkopolska Province (August 21-22) and AGRO SHOW in Bednary (September 20-22). There, we will demonstrate how to use Fertisat and Irriget services, or propose a set of services based on remote sensing and specialized analyzes precisely tailored to the needs of individual farms. We invite you to our stands!
More field status reports for PROCAM Polska clients
We have broadened our cooperation with PROCAM Polska by providing the company’s customers who grow rapeseed with reports on the condition of their plantations. The reports include a field map with information on nitrogen uptake by winter rapeseed calculated on the basis of satellite images and mathematical models available in Fertisat service. We calculate the recommended dose of nitrogen to be used during spring vegetation in a given field, present an assessment of the current rainfall and temperature situation, and PROCAM advisors create agrotechnical recommendations for their clients on this basis.
In mid-May, we will also resume sending weekly reports to clients of Potato Department of PROCAM. Cultivation reports are advanced information from Irriget service regarding the status of crops, climatic conditions in the field and disease risks to potatoes, supplemented with agrotechnical recommendations prepared by specialists from PROCAM Polska.
There will be an opportunity to learn more about the above-mentioned reports, as well as Fertisat and Irriget services, at PROCAM Field Days organized from 28 May to 20 June 2024. Agronomists from Wasat Sp. z o. o. will be present at the events in Niemierzyce and Karolewo (Greater Poland Voivodeship), Jankowice (Lower Silesian Voivodeship), Wyszyna (West Pomeranian Voivodeship), Bystrze and Stanowo (Pomeranian Voivodeship) and in Sekursko (Łódź Voivodeship).
