THE CHALLENGE

Maximizing Yields in an Era of Climate Uncertainty

The agricultural industry is under pressure to produce more food with fewer resources, all while facing the unpredictable impacts of climate change. For farmers and large agribusinesses, the challenge is not just to grow crops, but to optimize every single aspect of the process, from soil health to irrigation. The high cost of precision agriculture technology—including advanced sensors, drones, and data analytics software—is a significant barrier to entry, particularly for smaller farms.
Our client, a large-scale commercial farming operation, was facing these key challenges:

SUBOPTIMAL RESOURCE USE

They were applying water and fertilizers uniformly across their fields, a “one-size-fits-all” approach that was both wasteful and inefficient. This led to high operational costs and a negative environmental impact.

REACTIVE CROP MANAGEMENT

They were making decisions based on visual inspections and historical data, which meant they were often reacting to problems like pest infestations or nutrient deficiencies after they had already damaged the crops.

LIMITED YIELD PREDICTION

Without granular data on soil conditions and plant health, it was difficult to accurately predict crop yields, which made it hard to plan for sales and logistics.

CAPEX INVESTMENT BARRIER

The upfront cost of a full-scale precision agriculture system—including the sensors, the data infrastructure, and the analytics software—was a major capital investment they were hesitant to make.

THE SOLUTION

Divine by Design's HarvestAI as a Service

Divine by Design introduced the HarvestAI Smart Farm Solution, a comprehensive, subscription-based service that provided the client with the benefits of precision agriculture without the high upfront costs. We provided a complete package that included hardware, software, and ongoing support, all for a predictable monthly fee.
Our solution included:

SMART SENSOR NETWORK DEPLOYMENT

Our team strategically deployed a network of robust, low-power IoT sensors throughout the client’s fields. These sensors continuously monitor critical variables like soil moisture, temperature, pH levels, and nutrient content.

AI-POWERED ANALYTICS PLATFORM

The data from the sensors is fed into our cloud-based analytics platform, which uses machine learning algorithms to generate actionable insights. The platform can create high-resolution digital maps of the farm, identifying areas that need more or less water or fertilizer.

PREDICTIVE CROP HEALTH MONITORING

The AI can analyze sensor data and satellite imagery to detect early signs of stress, disease, or pest infestations, allowing farmers to intervene before the problem spreads and causes significant damage.

AUTOMATED IRRIGATION & FERTILIZATION RECOMMENDATIONS

The platform provides automated, real-time recommendations for irrigation and fertilization. For example, it can trigger a smart irrigation system to water only the driest parts of a field, or it can recommend a specific nutrient mix for a nutrient-deficient area. This shifts resource application from a blanket approach to a precise, on-demand model.

PREDICTABLE OPEX MODEL

The subscription model for the HarvestAI service eliminated the need for a major capital investment. The client’s costs were transformed into a predictable monthly operational expense, which allowed them to access cutting-edge technology and immediately realize a return on their investment through improved yields and reduced resource costs.

THE RESULTS

Increased Yields and Sustainable Growth

The implementation of the Secure Transaction Platform had a profound impact on the client’s business, allowing them to scale rapidly and securely.

YIELD INCREASE

By optimizing resource application and proactively managing crop health, the client was able to increase their average crop yield by 15% in the first growing season.

RESOURCE CONSERVATION

The precise application of water and fertilizer led to a 25% reduction in water usage and a 20% reduction in fertilizer costs, leading to both environmental and financial savings.

PROACTIVE MANAGEMENT

The predictive analytics and automated alerts empowered the farm management team to move from a reactive to a proactive approach, mitigating risks and improving overall efficiency.

SCALABILITY FOR FUTURE

The subscription model allows the farm to easily expand the service to new fields or integrate with new technologies, such as drone-based imagery analysis or automated harvesting equipment, as their needs evolve.

This project showcases Divine by Design’s ability to deliver advanced technology as a service, empowering organizations in traditional industries to embrace innovation and achieve sustainable, data-driven growth.
