Agrio[1] is an artificial intelligence-based precision agriculture solution that helps farmers and field inspectors to remotely monitor, identify, and treat plant diseases and pests. Agrio was developed by Saillog Ltd[2], a Tel-Aviv based startup. Saillog digitizes crop protection by leveraging and deploying proprietary artificial intelligence and computer vision algorithms. Saillog’s system aggregates data through the use of remote sensing devices, and its smartphone app called Agrio. Agrio users are notified when a problem is predicted or sensed in their fields. Users are presented with optimized scouting routes for them to upload images of plants with suspected pathologies. They then receive diagnosis and treatment recommendations from an artificial intelligence system. Saillog offers a plant protection management solution to large scale food producers such as farming cooperatives. In this context, Agrio is a decision support system and tool that facilitates collaboration inside the organization.
Agrio - mobile application
Agrio is a web and smartphone app that supports crop protection endeavors. The software solution allows agronomists and managers to monitor fields remotely and be informed when intervention is needed. Within Agrio is a feature called AgrioShield that is an AI-based global alert system. For growers, the Agrio smartphone acts as an artificially intelligent agronomist by processing images to identify crop diseases, pests, nutritional deficiencies, and abiotic stresses. After an identification has been made, Agrio’s system provides guidance on integrated pest management and enables communication between users and in-house experts.
Functionality
Agrio leverages and deploys proprietary artificial intelligence and computer vision algorithms. The algorithms contain the knowledge of numerous agriculture experts and continuously improve. Users mark their fields on the map and receive real-time monitoring by remote sensing devices such as satellites. In addition, the data is being analyzed by AI algorithms that are trained to detect anomalies.
In the field, growers upload images of crop anomalies then receive instant identification of problems and treatment suggestions. Users can assign multiple fields to manage crops and farms; AgrioShield’s algorithms, which are based on the geographical spread and forecasting models, dispatch warning alerts on impending infestations and send written preventative measures to help users impede infestations.
Workgroup
Workgroup is a secure and private channel for farming organizations and agri-entrepreneurs. It transforms Agrio from a public platform to an internal operations tool. The Workgroup enables users to create digital farming associations to manage crop protection endeavors on a large scale, with enhanced capabilities such as remote monitoring.
Saillog
Saillog was founded by Dr. Nessi Benishti. Nessi holds M.Sc and PhD in Theoretical Physics from Cambridge and Oxford Universities. Before founding Saillog, Nessi co-founded and served as a CTO at Augmedics and was the core technology inventor at Cathworks. Saillog is headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel and has a global presence with employees located around the world.
