Following the success of SGS precision farming services around the world, it recently announced that it is now available to farms in Argentina and Turkey.
Precision farming supports farm management using information technology so that crops and soils receive the necessary resources (water, nutrients, remedies) necessary for optimal health and productivity.
The company's service significantly supports the profitability and sustainability of agriculture by maximizing yield while protecting the environment and not overloading the fields.
To support the introduction of precision farming in Argentina and Turkey, SGS conducts training seminars for farmers. They will introduce the use of this monitoring technology in various farming systems, such as arable land, irrigated land, gardens, greenhouses, nurseries and seed production.
The SGS Precision Gateway platform is used to display fields by linking data and analytical results on soil composition and nutrient status with farm management information.
SGS agronomists study data from all sources and make recommendations during the sowing season. In addition, SGS has data and experience working with many standard row crops (cereals, corn, soybeans), vegetables and perennial crops such as berries, citrus fruits, pome fruits, grapes, avocados, etc.
With extensive experience in precision farming, developed over many years and in 34 countries, SGS applies and integrates only the most suitable and reliable technologies to meet the needs of crops and farmers. SGS supports benchmarks for biomass development and yield for each crop and field.
