Scope

  • IoT
  • Mobile apps
  • Backend platforms
  • Sensor networks
  • Farmer UX

01

The problem.

Indian farming decisions — when to irrigate, how much fertiliser to apply, when to spray for pests — are usually made from experience and word-of-mouth advisories. MPKV wanted to turn its agronomic research into tools that farmers could actually hold in their hands: mobile apps for advisories, IoT sensors for measurements, and connected irrigation systems for automation.

02

How we approached it.

  1. 01

    Started with core farm-management mobile apps (Sanman, Sam) — the foundation for how data would flow from field to dashboard.

  2. 02

    Layered in an IoT stack — Smart Weather Stations, soil moisture sensors and solenoid-valve controllers — feeding the same backend.

  3. 03

    Delivered domain-specific advisory apps (Phule Irrigation Scheduler, PPDM, Phule Fertilization Scheduler, Phulejal) that translate sensor + weather data into scheduled recommendations farmers can act on.

  4. 04

    Kept everything modular so new products in the Phule series slot into the same platform without rewriting anything.

03

What we shipped.

9 products in the Phule digital-farming series, shipped over two decades of continuous partnership.

  • Smart Weather Station
