Overview / Usage

Agrisuccess is a hardware(running on Intel genuino 101), web-based, and mobile system designed to help farmers perform real time soil fertility analysis, which generates reports on: soil pH, soil Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium (NPK) contents, soil temperature and moisture. The purpose of which is to identify pre or post-harvest nutrients in the soil by using Agrisuccess’ hardware, which connects to a phone via Bluetooth or Wifi, and prepares for the farmer a list of crops that can be produced successfully, given their current soil conditions. Before planting, if other crops are desired, Agrisuccess can report to the farmer what additional nutrients need to be added to the ground to ensure new crop success. The system also assists them in making the right decisions on which crops can thrive better on their soils and hence, in turn, increase their incomes. The beauty with the soil analysis device is that the soil analysis is done in the field rather than collecting soil samples to labs as it is done in the current manual systems and this eliminates a lot of errors. And also results are sent to the user in real time automatically wherever they are.
Agrisuccess helps farmers connect with near buy buyers of crop produce. It also provides the farmer with weather forecasts. The system eliminates tedious paper work by helping the farmer keep records on irrigation, pest control and current fertilizer status. Agrisuccess allows farmers and farming professionals the opportunity to discuss their unique issues: possibly recommend and connect the farmer to financial institutions for loans, with the supporting documentation needed about their farm which will assist the farmer in obtaining both a loan and quality crop yields. The ultimate goal is to increase agricultural sector contribution to the national GDP.
