New research partnership aims to evaluate digital agronomic solutions for U.S. farmers

U.S. farmers now have access to a new technology that has already demonstrated soybean yield gains up to 3 bushels per acre. The partnership between DigiFarmz and Agrellus will provide  large-scale field trials to validate the use of DigiFarmz agronomic recommendations, making crop management more efficient and profitable.

DigiFarmz, present in the U.S. since 2023, established a partnership with Agrellus to expand its technology to the states of Iowa and Illinois. Agrellus, a leader in technological solutions for agriculture, will oversee the trials and assess the impact of this innovation on farmers' productivity.

The goal is to measure the agronomic and economic benefits of the platform’s digital recommendations compared to the traditional farming practices. The trials will follow a straightforward protocol, including supervised product application, qualitative and quantitative data collection at different crop stages, and a comparative analysis of results. The plots will be established as “farm plots,” significantly larger than those typically used in conventional research. The process will involve technical visits through the whole season, ensuring detailed monitoring of DigiFarmz’s solution performance under farming conditions.

Throughout the project, Agrellus will provide monthly updates, consolidating the findings into a certified final report. DigiFarmz, in turn, will grant access to its platform, provide training, and all technical support to ensure the proper implementation of its technology in the trials. 

This partnership strengthens DigiFarmz’s commitment to bringing innovation and agronomic intelligence to U.S. farmers. This project aligns with ongoing research conducted at the University of Tennessee, the University of Illinois, and with farmers associated with WHIN (WHIN | Northwest Central Indiana Community Partnerships Inc.). 

With the large-scale validation enabled by the trials in the U.S., the company advances in its mission to deliver precise and effective recommendations to farmers, agronomists, and cooperatives, promoting both agricultural sustainability and productivity on a global scale.
