Forests are the lungs of our planet, and they also are home to uncountable species. Effective forest management requires accurate monitoring of forest cover and related functions. Monitoring data is essential for developing policies and making decisions that will ensure our forests’ conservation, protection, and sustainable management. 

In tropical regions, where deforestation is a significant concern, it is crucial to have reliable national forest monitoring systems to estimate forest cover and carbon stock change. Many tropical countries lack the technical and political expertise to implement such a system, and capacity-building efforts are underway to address this issue and establish effective national forest monitoring practices at the institutional level.

Advantages of Using Forestry Software

Using forestry software, particularly those with a SaaS approach, can benefit environmental organizations. It can simplify complicated workflows, automate administrative processes, and keep your organization up-to-date with technological advancements.

Forestry software helps to promote collaboration within the organization. It enables teams, stakeholders, various divisions, Indigenous communities, and contractors to access and view vital information to ensure everyone is working towards the same goals. It helps to keep everyone on the same page and facilitates efficient teamwork.

Using forestry software can also simplify different business processes, eliminating the need to hire more staff to handle these tasks. It will ultimately reduce your operating costs over time.

For forestry companies, it is essential to have a comprehensive forest management system that integrates with GIS. Proper software enables temporal and spatial planning and viewing of all forest data in one place. With such a system, companies can easily prepare and forecast all their forest management activities, simplifying their efforts. The list includes various tasks:

• Ensuring the accuracy and security of data storage.

The College of Agriculture at Auburn University recently partnered with AgriTech Corp. on a specialty Auburn-branded SoilKit which marks the first time a public, land-grant university has partnered with a private company to deliver digital, quality and  easy-to-understand soil test results to homeowners, landscapers and municipalities.

This partnership benefits both parties as SoilKit is now matched with a national leader in agricultural science and Auburn can connect with a greater number of homeowners, landscapers and municipalities to deliver easy-to-understand results and recommendations through this simplified soil testing technology.

When process of the soil considered, the soil samples of consumers will be sent to the university and will be tested by Auburn agronomists at the Auburn University Soil, Forage and Water Testing Laboratory. Then according to the details taken by tests, calculations are done with digital tools, such as address autofill and satellite-driven square footage calculation which is provided in soilkit.

Then, after samples are processed with the use of calculations and details taken, consumers receive a digital version of their soil test results and recommendations via email. The recommendations are based on decades of agricultural research dating back to the founding of the Auburn College of Agriculture in 1872.

According to the, Audrey Gamble, assistant professor and extension specialist in the Department of Crop, Soil and Environmental Sciences ,Using research-based recommendations correlate soil-test nutrient levels with plant response ensures that enough fertilizer is applied to promote healthy plant growth without adding excess fertilizer, which can pollute nearby ground- and surface-waters. So this will be be lead to great increase in production based on agriculture.

TOKYO, June 7, 2021 – (JCN Newswire) – NEC Corporation (TSE: 6701) today announced the enhancement of CropScope, its agricultural ICT platform, which NEC has been operating jointly with Kagome Co, Ltd. since April 2020. New functions to improve farming have been added to the strengthened platform, and stable yields have already been achieved through verification in a variety of environments. As a result, NEC expects to expand the number of new contracts for the platform, and to contribute to the achievement of more sustainable farming by resolving challenging farming issues.

CropScope consists of a service that uses sensors and satellite photographs to visualize the growth status of tomatoes and the condition of soils, as well as a service that provides farming advice using artificial intelligence (AI). The AI capitalizes on a wealth of know-how from experienced cultivators, enabling it to provide guidance on the optimum amount of water, fertilizer and the best time to apply them. This platform enables tomato producers, regardless of skill level, to stabilize their harvests and reduce cultivation costs, while implementing environmentally friendly farming.

In addition, the platform’s accumulation of farming knowledge from experienced workers enables know-how to be passed down, and successful farming production from experienced cultivators to be duplicated, thereby expanding the areas of production and providing support for the training of new farmers. Moreover, the operators and managers of processed tomato facilities can comprehensively understand the growth of tomatoes in both their own soils and the soils of contracted farmers, making it possible to optimize harvesting and improve productivity based on objective data.

Key enhancements to CropScope are as follows:

1. Strengthening the versatility of AI farming advice services In 2020, NEC and Kagome conducted demonstration tests of CropScope in collaboration with an Australia-based Kagome subsidiary, KAGOME Australia Pty Ltd. Since the cultivation requirements for Australia differed from markets where CropScope had been applied in the past, such as Portugal, the platform gained important knowledge on soils, crop breeds, and irrigation facilities, including simulations on the water content of soils in the underlying irrigation system, recording data from trained cultivators and enhancing analytical methods. This has enabled the platform to deliver the same harvest capacity as trained cultivators in a variety of environments, ranging from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere.

2. Improve the convenience of applications based on user feedback
Based on the feedback of large-scale users of CropScope worldwide, NEC has improved the usability of applications by including the ability to identify field abnormalities, such as changes in the soil and water content, the ability to determine farming priorities for individual fields, expressing data in a simple manner, and the ability to analyze accumulated data between fields in order to improve farming methods.

Going forward, the two companies aim to accelerate the growth of this business by strengthening proposals for processed tomato manufacturers, particularly in Europe and the Americas, and for tomato production companies.

“We aim to realize environmentally friendly and highly profitable farming in the cultivation of tomatoes for processing globally. Since 2020, we have been expanding the AI farming support tool CropScope, which we jointly developed using NEC’s cutting-edge technologies. This tool was renewed in April 2021 to strengthen our ability to provide solutions. In addition, we will accelerate the resolution of the issues that producers face in the farming field, and aim to realize sustainable farming,” said Kengo Nakata, General Manager, Smart Agri Division, Kagome.

“In its strategic partnership with Kagome, NEC has been expanding digitization in the tomato market. At the same time, NEC has responded to the challenges faced by its production sites by enhancing the versatility of farming advice utilizing AI, which is NEC’s specialty, and strengthening its ‘CropScope’ platform. NEC will continue to develop and provide solutions that contribute to the cultivation of a wide range of crops, helping to overcome social issues, climate change and food safety concerns, while creating sustainable farming experiences,” said Teruyuki Nakajima, Executive Vice President and General Manager, Corporate Business Development Division, NEC Corporation.

• Farmers, environment and society to benefit from continuous research and development
• Seeds, crop protection products and digital services for ever more sustainable agricultural solutions
• Projected peak sales potential of more than €7.5 billion confirmed

BASF strengthens its activities in research and development (R&D) for sustainable agricultural innovations, helping farmers to overcome environmental and economic challenges as well as meeting consumers’ demand for more sustainably produced food. With solutions launching throughout the next decade, the pipeline supports the company’s aim to annually increase its sales share of agricultural solutions with substantial contribution to sustainability by 7%. By 2030, more than 30 major R&D projects will complement BASF’s connected offer of seeds and seed treatment products, chemical and biological solutions, as well as digital services. This brings the pipeline to an estimated peak sales potential of more than €7.5 billion. In 2020, BASF spent €840 million in R&D in the Agricultural Solutions segment; representing around 11% of the segment’s sales. In 2021, the company will continue to invest in R&D of agricultural innovations at a high level.

“BASF leads in solutions for sustainable agriculture. In addition to developing innovations, we also provide a connected offer, combining effective products as well as new technologies and services, tailored to customers’ needs and their different crop systems around the world,” said Vincent Gros, President of BASF’s Agricultural Solutions division. BASF has committed to ambitious sustainability targets for its agriculture business by 2030: Besides increasing the annual sales share of sustainable agricultural solutions, farmers will be supported in reducing their CO₂ emissions by 30% per ton of crop produced. Further, the company strives to apply digital technologies on more than 400 million hectares of farmland cumulatively by 2030, while continuing to ensure the safe use of its products. BASF remains committed to developing solutions that drive the transformation of the agricultural food system for the better. “Sustainability is engrained in our entire R&D process. It leads the way in how we develop our innovations, which support farmers produce more and better while preserving natural resources,” Gros emphasized.

Connected offer for productive and environmentally friendly farming

By 2050, farmers will have to feed an estimated 9.7 billion people, requiring an increase in productivity of 50%. Digitalization has the potential to make an important contribution to this. The company is therefore advancing its digital technologies together with other innovations across its whole portfolio. This combination allows farmers to achieve better yield on existing arable land, while supporting biodiversity preservation.

In November 2020, BASF and Bosch signed a joint venture agreement to globally market and sell smart farming solutions from a single source in the future. Through the joint venture, which is subject to the approval of the relevant antitrust authorities, the companies plan to launch the Smart Spraying solution this year. The new technology recognizes weeds and allows a precise application of herbicides, which maximizes productive land-use and reduces the environmental impact by lowering the volume of herbicides applied. In addition, the new outcome-based business model xarvio^® HEALTHY FIELDS provides farmers a tailored, optimized field- and season-specific crop protection strategy, enabling them to achieve agreed yield forecasts. This way, the company answers modern farming challenges, requirements by society and political action plans, contributing to more sustainable farming. BASF’s connected offer further extends the development of herbicide-tolerant traits and chemical crop protection tailored to these traits. Combined with solutions to control weeds before they emerge, these enable no-till farming, which leads to less CO₂ released from the soil, reduces soil erosion and promotes humus buildup.

Meeting growing demand for sustainably produced food

To continuously steer the product portfolio towards even more sustainable solutions, BASF applies the Sustainable Solution Steering method, which is unique in the industry and third-party audited, in the early stages of research and development. “The R&D approach to agricultural solutions has fundamentally changed in the past two decades. We are successfully driving sustainable innovations by focusing equally on the future needs of farmers, society, and the environment,” said Peter Eckes, President Bioscience Research at BASF.

The company’s advanced insecticides portfolio is one example of successful Sustainable Solution Steering. It offers solutions that increase agricultural productivity and reduce environmental impact, creating added value for society. Axalion™ active ingredient developed by BASF, pending regulatory approval, is the company’s latest insecticide innovation in this context. With its novel mode of action, it helps farmers safeguard their yield without negatively impacting soil and water organisms or birds. When applied according to the respective label instructions, Axalion based products will not impact beneficial insects. The new compound is also an essential tool in preventing insecticide resistance. Other examples from the company’s portfolio include recently launched, regionally tailored products based on Inscalis^® for North and South America and Asia as well as first registrations globally of Broflanilide in South America and Asia.

New seed varieties from BASF help farmers produce enough healthy and affordable food in an environmentally friendly way. For example, the company’s latest spinach seeds varieties are resistant to downy mildew, one of the most destructive fungal diseases. They prevent complete crop loss, cover all growing seasons and have a significant market share in fresh organic spinach. These features offer added value for growers, processors, retailers and consumers. BASF also invests in research on indoor growing systems, such as growing lettuce in hydroponic systems. These require less land, save water compared to traditional open-field cultivation and reduce the need for conventional crop protection. The indoor technology allows lettuce to be grown regardless of geographic location, so it can be produced closer to the consumer. This avoids long transport distances and reduces the associated emissions.
