AgroConnect — AI Co-pilot for the Farm
AgroConnect is Develone's AgTech platform for the mixed farm (crop + livestock) of the Southern Cone. Unlike traditional farm-management software, it doesn't just record — it's a layer of AI agents that see, recommend and execute (always with human approval) across machinery, field work, herds, traceability, weather and finance.
What it is
A cloud-native, Spanish-first platform with three co-primary verticals on one shared core. One establishment, one customer, one login — the mixed operator runs everything from the web and an offline-first mobile app (Flutter), built for the field with no signal.
Who it's for
Crop and livestock producers, mixed farms, contractors and advisors across the Southern Cone still running margin, spraying, herd and traceability on spreadsheets and notebooks.
The verticals
- 🌾 Crop: establishments, GIS fields (GeoJSON), campaigns/seasons, activities and field work, margin and agronomy (N fertilization by balance, economic pest-control threshold / IPM).
- 🐄 Livestock: herds and animals (RFID tag), stock and inventory, health events and weighings, movements (DT-e), a proactive health plan/calendar, fattening/ADG with fattening margin, reproduction (pregnancy % / calving %) and pasture (stocking rate LU/ha, forage balance).
- 🚜 Contractor: clients, work orders and pending invoicing, currency-aware.
The AI agents (the differentiator)
Deterministic compute + natural-language narration. They never fabricate; every action is audited.
- Gross-Margin co-pilot: margin per hectare and per head, break-even yield, sensitivity analysis, narration and PDF export.
- Spray go/no-go agent: an 8-condition deterministic gate + real weather + field geofence. Never passes silently; it writes the field logbook (GAP) and exports it to PDF.
- Proactive health plan: compliance per herd, an anticipatory schedule and a dashboard KPI.
- Vision agent: crop photo → structured diagnosis (Ollama or Claude, switchable) → severity-based alert.
Cross-cutting
- NDVI/GNDVI satellite per field (yield zones, vigor bands, time evolution).
- Collection channels: WhatsApp and email — the field sends a photo or text and the plot is resolved automatically; outbound alerts over WhatsApp/email.
- Tamper-proof photo evidence (sha256 + verifiable locator), CSV file-import, notifications with an AI-narrated Daily Digest, a cross-vertical dashboard and an agronomic knowledge base (RAG).
Security and architecture
Multi-tenant with per-organization isolation, RBAC, JWT with refresh and reuse-detection, and AES-256-GCM encrypted secrets per organization. Parameterized queries end to end.
Status
Built and live at https://agroconnect.develone.com (app) and agrocore.develone.com (API). LLM routing is switchable between local Ollama (zero cost per token), Claude and OpenAI.
