The disruptive management software that turns agricultural traceability information into actionable business data

Objective

Market Problems/Opportunities: EU has a common legislative framework (CAP) regulating agriculture practices, subsidies &
food safety standards (including traceability) across all member states. These obligations are the most demanding in the
world, driven by European citizen’s awareness of the global impact on environment of agriculture and the need for safer
products. This framework imposes the obligation to carry out a very extensive and detailed registry of all activities (field
notebooks) performed by farmers within the scope of their operations (e.g. purchase of fertilizers, date of sow & harvest,
obtained output etc.). Nevertheless, up to 50% of farmers admit to using paper
Added-value product approach: Cropti has developed a revolutionary product, based on its own methodology and
capabilities, to efficiently gather, manage and process traceability data. Through its web application, Cropti supports farmers
and agricultural advisors in efficiently carrying out the field notebook, while using this data to generate business intelligence.
This, support farmers and their advisors in three ways. Firstly, it saves time in fulfilling paperwork, secondly it turns this data
into actionable information by providing a multiplatform dashboard which covers all KPIs of farming (expected profitability,
detailed cost per activity, local efficiency benchmarks, etc.), and thirdly it provides a channel for communication of the
different stakeholders surrounding a farming operation (owners, management team, operators, suppliers, etc.)
Funding impact: As a result of this project, in a five-year term, Cropti expects to create over 80 high quality jobs: agricultural
engineers, software developers, system engineers, designers and marketing specialists. As a consequence of our expansion
and growth in the European market, we will reach an estimated turnover of €22,2M and an EBITDA of €14,6M by 2021
