Your benefits
Get the most out of your crops
To keep and strengthen the future of the Belgian potato chain, we need to make the transition towards more sustainable and digital agriculture. As our agricultural area cannot be expanded further, we should try to increase our yields. WatchITgrow supports growers to monitor the status and evolution of their crops closely. They receive warnings when something goes wrong and get timely advice on where and when actions need to be taken (fertilise, irrigate, … ). This allows growers to save time and cost while production can be increased.
How does it work?
WatchITgrow uses various types of data starting with satellite data combined with e.g. weather data, soil data, IoT data and field data provided by the grower. WatchITgrow allows growers to access and store large amounts of data via a personal account. These data will be combined using new technologies such as big data analytics and machine learning to provide growers with more timely and personalised advice.
Stakeholders
