Ukko Expertise
Ukko Agro’s proprietary platform, ForeSite™, is the only Field Adaptive and Integrated Modelling (F.A.I.M.) system designed specifically for agriculture.
ForeSite™ aggregates crop and weather data, sourced from hyper-accurate, localized and affordable weather stations, to provide input recommendations for specific disease pressure. We provide these actionable insights using our proprietary algorithms, based on machine learning and plant science. You can access these insights via mobile application.
ForeSite™:
- Is field adaptive – we deliver specific insights and recommendations on a field-by-field basis. Other platforms are only capable of delivering on a more regional basis, losing accuracy along the way
- Is purpose built – for crop production
- Easily integrates insights into other precision ag applications to help retailers and their grower customers make the best decisions and recommendations possible, with minimal input from retail staff and their grower customers. Our system ‘plays well with others’!
Ukko also integrates multiple predictive models such as crop growth and disease models to make advisories more automated, accurate with minimal data input required from the user. This makes Ukko unique in the digital/precision agriculture marketplace.
The bottom line: ForeSite™ delivers field specific staging and disease risk 3 to 14 days in advance, suggesting where and when to take action, helping you apply inputs at precisely the right time for maximum effectiveness.
What we offer
We currently offer predictive analytics for crop disease and growth stages. Our research team is working to expand to nutrient deficiency, yield gap forecasting, and crop health.
Disease
Ukko's disease forecasting algorithms combine current and forecasted weather conditions, crop details, management practices, crop growth stages, and past applications to forecast risk to crop, and advise on timing and location for fungicide application.
