Agriculture professionals are working smarter, not harder, than ever before. Smart farming technologies have enabled them to reduce costs, maximize yields and profits, and still be incredibly efficient in the process. And there is perhaps a no better example of smart farming than with the mobile app.

An app by Seedco is just what Zim farmers need to work smarter. Seedco’s Agronomy app has an array of services which I thought to be useful for farmers.

What the app offers

The Seedco Agronomy app give detailed information about crops seeds that range from maize to wheat to soya to sugar beans to soya. What kind of information? The Agronomy app lists and gives short but delayed information about different types of seeds and their benefits. For instance, on the maize seed, there are over 10 types of seeds along with useful information about the optimum conditions for each type to thrive.

You find information about how to grow various crops, various insects that attack crops, various diseases, planting time, application of fertilizer and manure. You can manage your farm from the app with this feature.
