Project Goal
High input costs and low production quantities in agriculture increase food prices on a unit basis, and indiscriminate irrigation also leads to a significant decrease in our country's water resources.Business Problem Solved
Within Gübretas, soil sample data and analysis results have begun to accumulate, leading to the formation of big data related to Turkish soils. At this stage, teams need to compare these values on a map, monitor sample values, and create interpolations accordingly to provide added value.
To solve this problem, Gübretas R&D and technology teams have successfully mapped the soil samples taken with location information, making the big data meaningful and valuable using Esri solutions.
Technology Implemented
To meet the needs of the business and improve capabilities, the GUBRETAS R&D team leveraged ArcGIS technology, including ArcGIS Pro.
Thanks to ArcGIS solutions, Gübretas rapidly archived spatial data collected from the field and added value to the data by providing accurate fertilizer recommendations based on the analysis of these data, tailored to specific regions.
Gübretas has successfully provided farmers with the correct prescription regarding the amount of fertilizer to be used in their fields, the timing of use, and the type of fertilizer to be used.
