Digital Financial Solutions for Farmers

Mindful management is essential when it comes to keeping track of harvests, storing important data, and communicating with suppliers. Ricult provides an easy way to handle all these tasks, allowing farmers to focus on strategically growing their businesses. In collaboration with the partner, Geniusee aimed to transform the way farmers and related agricultural enterprises operate.

With an intuitive online application, users can monitor fields via interactive maps, scope out upcoming weather forecasts, and analyze the markets they serve. Ricult is explicitly designed for the needs of agriculture to help farmers work more innovatively and ultimately improve their productivity.

Business context

A client reached out to us seeking a dedicated team of experts to strengthen their in-house technical unit and deliver a fully functional farm application. With our advanced cooperation models, we helped the project evolve through process management, consulting, and niche expert selection. Our main goal was to provide a high-quality development approach and enhance participation in staffing.

Key challenges:

Use satellite imagery and GPT to monitor fields and see the progress of the crops in real-time.
Keep all your essential paperwork, like contracts, invoices, and licenses, organized in one place.
Monitor competitor prices and harvest yields to stay informed about supply and demand within the one system.
Create CRM for farmers, which facilitates communication with distributors, suppliers, and other businesses in the network.

Work Approach

Flexibility

We remain flexible in our approach, adapting to client priorities or requirements changes. Our agile mindset means we can pivot quickly while still delivering a high-quality product. Whether adding or removing features, adjusting timelines, or revising the platform (web, mobile, or both), we work with clients every step of the way. As a team, we are not afraid to take on new challenges. We are always open to requests requiring significant expertise and professional assistance.
Outstaffing

Our team was happy to be involved in such a dynamic process of developing a project in AgroTech. Ricult is an astounding result of not only technical expertise but also smooth communication between both sides of the partnership, which allowed us to quickly scale up or down according to workload demands. Geniusee and Ricult collaborated in a dynamic environment that fostered creativity and tackled challenges deftly.
Continuous improvement

To stay ahead of the competition, our experts continually improve their expertise and expand their knowledge of the latest technologies, tools, and methodologies. The synergy between our dynamic team and the progressive spirit of our industries fuels the success of our company. With the business landscape constantly evolving, we remain committed to innovating, evolving, and redefining what's possible.
Optimizing efficiency

We stay on the cutting edge of software engineering best practices. As new frameworks and patterns emerge, we evaluate their relevance for building high-quality, robust web and mobile applications. We always revise our internal best practices to utilize the latest and most effective tools, languages, and frameworks.

Process

In this project, our team focused on developing a high-quality application that was equipped with all the necessary technical solutions in order to meet the client's requirements. Our technical team's implementation of cutting-edge programming approaches elevates the project from the competitors.

In this stage, we discussed the client's exact expectations from working with Geniusee as well as the further development plan for our collaboration. During the partnership, our goal was to find experts from our company who could collaborate with the client's technical team to systematically develop the project based on the latest technological solutions. A detailed analysis of the client's technical capabilities was performed in order to identify gaps that required specialized input. By using our advanced models, we picked professionals who worked well with the client's team.
Recognizing the importance of knowledge transfer, Geniusee's delivery team facilitated engaging training and brainstorming sessions. Our team of experts was actively involved in discussing possible improvements and opportunities for the project, as well as proposing a plan for its implementation. The goal was to empower the client's in-house technical team by imparting specialized knowledge and skills. This collaborative approach not only enhanced the technical capability of the internal team but also promoted an environment favorable to active participation and knowledge sharing. Our main goal was to be sure that the team performed well and met the client's business needs.
In the development process, features were delivered in iterative sprints. With the use of this approach, Geniusee's product team was able to respond quickly and effectively to the changing requirements and feedback from the client. On the other hand, our tech experts ensured best practices and coding standards were followed throughout the development process, using programming languages like React Native and Python.
Testing was integrated throughout the work process, from unit testing by developers to user acceptance testing with the client. Bugs and issues were addressed as soon as possible to avoid the accumulation of technical debt. Using test-driven development, our technical team ensured that the product met key requirements with a high level of quality.
The high expertise level of the Geniusee engineering team enabled them to participate in the product backlog grooming with the Product team and suggest the options for the application improvement as well as make the system more user-friendly. Through collaborative work across teams, we delivered an improved product to serve our clients better and contribute to their success. Our collective knowledge and cooperative process were key to achieving an optimal outcome.

Features

Crop management
The crop management module allows farmers to track key details about their crops, including planting, harvesting, and yield. Farmers can log the location, type, and quantity of seeds or seedlings planted. They can then update the status of crops as they grow and mature to monitor health and progress. Once harvested, farmers enter details about crop yields to analyze productivity and identify areas for improvement.
Customer relationship management
The CRM module supports building and maintaining relationships with customers like distributors, suppliers, and end consumers. Farmers can store contact information, communication histories, and notes for each customer. They can then analyze their interactions to improve relationships and identify new sales opportunities. The CRM data also allows farmers to track product demand and adjust operations accordingly.
Reporting and analytics
Reporting and data analysis tools provide insights to optimize users' decision-making. Farmers can generate reports on crop yields, operational costs, customer purchases, revenue, and more. They can then study trends over time and compare figures across locations, products, and periods. The analytics capabilities allow farmers to uncover patterns that inform better resource allocation, crop selection, pricing strategies, and other critical business decisions.
Document management
An integrated document management system gives farmers a centralized place to store and organize all their important files like contracts, invoices, licenses, and manuals. Files can be uploaded, categorized, and tagged to make them easy to find when needed. Version control helps ensure the most up-to-date documents are used for reference and compliance.

Results

A solution similar in concept to the CRM system that allows farmers and landlords to keep their business documents and analytics together in one place.
A mobile app that is integrated with Google Maps helps farmers track the weather changes as well as monitor the harvest progress.
An implementation of a real-time mapping scan that helps farmers and landowners define better resource allocation, crop selection, and pricing strategies.
Effective teamwork and clear intercultural communication ensured the systematic development of a complex technical project.
