The results that Internet of Things (Iot) solutions have been bringing to solve real problems in agribusiness, and thus reduce costs and increase process efficiency, improving and making decision-making in the sector more reliable will be presented during the Coopavel Rural Show .
 
One of the companies present at the fair is AgrusData – www.agrusdata.com -, specialized in IoT products and services applied to control/monitoring and action recommendations on issues related to microclimate in the field, connection of agricultural machines and implements, irrigation systems, fire detection in planted crops/forests, among other applications.
 
At the Rural Show, AgrusData is an exhibitor at the InovaBra habitat stand, a co-innovation center linked to Bradesco, of which the company is resident in the capital of São Paulo. For the event, AgrusData highlights its remote silo monitoring and control technology. The system, based on warehouses connected with IoT devices that work like ultrasound, reads data, delivering, in real time, information on stored volume, temperature, humidity, rate of gases emitted, etc.
 
According to Herlon Oliveira, CEO of AgrusData, smart silo technology prevents, for example, an employee from having to frequently go upstairs to take measurements at high temperatures, as well as being exposed to explosive gases. In addition to increasing workplace safety, smart silos bring, among other benefits, reduced operational costs and efficiency gains in inventory control, which lead to positive results for all stages of the business. The Cooperativa Agroindustrial Integrada do Paraná is one of the customers of AgrusData's smart silo technology.
 
“When it comes to digital agriculture solutions, what rural producers are willing to buy are predictions, that is, knowledge generated from the collection and analysis of data, which can provide them with support for better decision-making”, emphasizes Herlon .
 
According to the executive, what, in fact, pays the bill for digital agriculture services is anticipating scenarios/occurrences and delivering recommendations. “The farmer does not buy technology, what he wants to know is what information technology will bring in terms of return on investment for him. With the producer, you need to talk about numbers.”
