In 2024, I teamed up with Vitaverde to design a farm management software solution focused on inventory tracking. Modern farming operations often juggle multiple spreadsheets and siloed systems to track inputs like seeds, fertilizers, feed, and equipment usage. Recognizing the inefficiency and risk of data errors, the aim was to build an integrated, user-friendly platform that provides real-time visibility into farm inventory.
Managing farm inventory has a feew hurdles:
Multiple Product Types: Seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, feed, and more—each with its own usage pattern.
Data Fragmentation: Farmers frequently rely on manual logs or spreadsheets, leading to errors and time-intensive reconciliation.
Scalability & Forecasting: As farms expand, inventory tracking must accommodate larger volumes while anticipating future needs.
On-the-Go Updates: Field conditions can change rapidly, requiring mobile data entry to keep inventory counts accurate.
Usability in Rural Settings: Connectivity can be spotty, so offline capabilities and a lightweight interface are crucial.
