Your customized spraying execution plan across thousands of acres. 

DriftSense is a technology platform for optimizing spraying execution. 

Leveraging multidisciplinary scientific expertise, our platform provides growers with their ultimate cost-effective spraying execution plan, to apply their choices of agro-inputs, with their preferred gear, plot-by-plot, across thousands of acres.

We do the science so growers can simply execute their best spraying execution plan for optimal results and maximum cost effectiveness at scale.

We’re all paying the price of imprecise spraying. 

Agro-inputs are necessary for the successful growth of the crops upon which we all depend for our nourishment. But when their application is conducted through an approximated process, the results are poor and the implications are grave.

Imprecise spraying leads to:

Resistance

Similarly to antibiotics, overexposure has led many pests to build up resistance to commonly used pesticides, in a vicious cycle that leads to the use of more and stronger substances. 

Phytotoxicity

Many crops suffer from increased exposure to massive quantities of chemicals, rendering them vulnerable and less likely to thrive and provide optimal yields.

Drift

When inputs do not end up where they were meant to go, the damage is twofold: target crops receive too much or too little, and neighboring areas receive inadvertent damaging substances.

High concentration

Exposure to large quantities of pesticides reduces the quality of produce and disqualifies it from being export-appropriate.

Beyond the macro health and food security implications for us all, this severe reality threatens the businesses of growers and the companies who serve them, in an industry notorious for its volatility even in the best of times.

Growers struggle with the immense burden of the skyrocketing costs of inputs – a full 3X increase over the 20 past years. And as regulation spreads across regions, in many areas growers are also going to become increasingly more subject to the challenges of meeting regulatory requirements.

Growers’ service providers such as Pest Control Advisors (PCAs) and AgChem companies operate in a competitive market in which input performance failure can lead to client turnover, reputational damage and regulatory liability.

We’d all benefit greatly from much more precise application of agro-inputs such that the intended substances go directly where they’re needed, when they’re needed.

How can they do so within their reality of juggling the immense task of managing thousands of differential acres, substances and means of dispersion, not to mention differing conditions?

How can growers obtain such precision?

Spray smart, not hard – try DriftSense today!

DriftSense offers the first agro-input-driven strategy, leveraging advanced data science to calculate the comprehensive range of factors impacting spray results:

Input: A wealth of variables

DriftSense’s platform analyzes not only all relevant meteorology, but also the chemical properties and regulatory data pertaining to the grower’s choice of agro-inputs, as well as their specific spraying gear with its implications for dispersion.

Analysis: Proprietary Algorithms in Service of Growers

This robust, complex range of variables all impacting where the spray will actually land, is fed into proprietary state-of-the-art algorithms, which calculate their cumulative and inter-dependent influences.

Output: Each grower’s customized spraying execution plan. Built for scale.

This deep science is conducted behind the scenes, so growers receive a simple, user-friendly interface helping them simplify one of their most strategic decisions – how to execute their spraying plan across their thousands of acres– for exceptionally better results.
