AgroSmart

A farm group is several businesses wearing one name: the orchard on one spreadsheet, the broiler houses on another, the mill on the manager's own file and the packhouse on paper that reaches accounts a month late. AgroSmart puts them on one set of books. A crop cycle, a flock, a lactation, a milling batch and a packing run are the same kind of object to the ledger, so the cost per unit falls out of the arithmetic instead of a meeting. Verticals are switched on from settings, so a company that only farms never sees a poultry screen.

What it covers

01

One cost object, whatever the vertical

Everything an operation consumes lands on its production cycle: feed, seed, water, labour hours, machine hours, medication, transport. What comes off it is weighed and graded. A crop cycle, a broiler flock, a lactation, a milling batch and a packing run are the same kind of object to the ledger, which is what lets one report answer for all of them.

02

Crops, orchards and greenhouses

Crop cycles by block, with field operations, irrigation events, scouting reports and the action taken, and soil, water and plant analyses kept against the block they came from. A plan for a field takes its protocol, its area and its sowing date, and carries the forecast for materials, labour and output from the first day.

03

The season, drawn before it starts

A protocol is the season for one crop and variety in one country, drawn on a timeline rather than typed into a grid: land preparation, the vegetative and reproductive stages, harvest, and the inputs, irrigation and labour each one needs. The builder prices the plan per feddan before it is activated and refuses a spray too close to harvest for its pre-harvest interval.

04

The week, on one board

An active plan becomes a pipeline: the tasks due this week by day, marked done, skipped or moved from the board, printed for the crew or issued as a work order to the store. Across the top, how much of the season is done, whether it is on time, and what it has cost so far against the forecast.

05

Date palms, tree by tree

An orchard is a register of individual trees. Each palm carries its block, row, variety, sex and bearing status, and a red palm weevil status of its own, so a scouting round records what it found against the tree and a suspected palm is visible on the list the same day.

06

Poultry

Flocks with a daily log of feed, water, mortality, culls, weight and temperature, measured against the breed standard for that day. Vaccination programmes, treatments with their withdrawal periods, hatchery batches and catch tickets, and the cost per bird and feed conversion that follow from them.

07

Livestock and dairy

Animals and herds, breeding events and calving, lactations with milk recorded per animal and per session, weighings, health events, movements and disposals. Feeding logs put the ration on the right cycle, so the cost per litre and the daily gain are measured, not estimated.

08

Feed mill

Formulas with their ingredients, and a costed batch every time you mill: planned against actual weights, moisture in and out, a quality result and the cost per kilogram that came out. Feed leaves the mill at what it cost to make, or at an internal transfer price you set, and lands on the flock or herd that ate it.

09

Packhouse and cold chain

Receiving lots, grading runs with their outputs, packing runs against a pack specification, slaughter batches with carcass yield templates, and cold room readings kept with the lot. A reading outside its range is flagged the moment it is recorded, so a bad night has a record and not a memory.

10

Contract growers

Grower contracts with the inputs you supply and the bonus terms you agreed, placements, and a settlement that works itself out from the cycle: what was collected at the gate, the mortality and feed conversion it implies, and what the grower earns after the inputs advanced. The grower ledger and a performance league sit beside it.

11

Holds that stop a mistake before it ships

A treatment sets a withdrawal period on the animal, the flock or the block. Until it clears, the system refuses to let that milk, those eggs or that bird leave the site. The check happens at the door, not in the audit.

A treatment opens a withdrawal period with its own clear date; before it clears dispatch is refused at the door, after it the milk, eggs or birds are released.
12

The record is made where the work happens

A daily flock log, a scouting report, a milk recording or a field operation is filled in on a phone, offline, and posted when there is signal. Weighbridge tickets tie the weight on the gate to the cycle and the lot. House temperature, cold room readings and station weather are stored against the cycle. The field endpoints are documented and versioned, so your own app can be built on them.

Mobile forms, weighbridge tickets and sensor or weather readings all land on the production cycle, and the cost per unit follows from it.
13

The numbers a farm group argues about, settled

Cycle profit and loss across every cycle, the cost sheet for one of them line by line with the cost per unit at the bottom, budget against actual while there is still time to act, batch traceability back to the lot and its treatments, and a compliance pack that is one export rather than a week of photocopying. Growing crops, breeding stock and flocks are carried at a value your accountant sets as a policy and revalued by a run you can repeat.
