Deepak Fertilisers Cuts Data Analysis Time by 70% with Agmatix Trial Management Platform

• Time to collate, verify and analyze agronomic data cut from six months to under one • Deepak has experienced significant error reduction through Agmatix’s digital notebook, which allows instantaneous mobile data collection

St. Louis, Missouri - India's largest fertilizer company, Deepak Fertilisers and Petrochemicals Corporation, has successfully reduced their time to collate, verify, and analyze agronomic data by 70%, from six months to under one month using the Agmatix platform. The Agmatix field trial software and data analysis system has helped Deepak detect and prevent errors in their product development trials, resulting in high-quality efficacy data for over 1,500 annual trials conducted through the platform.


Previously, agronomists manually entered multiple parameters per crop trial and across 25 sites each, using pen-and-paper field notebooks. This time-consuming method posed significant risks of data loss and entry errors. Agmatix's data collector for agronomic trials has significantly reduced inaccuracies through instantaneous mobile data collection. The digital notebook allows the upload of images, notes, and videos alongside collection location data and timestamps, securely storing all data in the cloud.

"Before integrating Agmatix's solution, I spent months manually collating agronomists' data, delaying business presentations. Now, the platform handles it instantly, allowing me to focus on other tasks," comments Senior Manager R&D Project and Data Lead at Deepak. "I tried other platforms, but they weren't suitable for our needs. Agmatix Trial Management fits seamlessly into our existing IT systems, and the team worked closely with me to create bespoke modifications to perfectly fit our requirements."

"Agricultural input companies are facing increasing pressure to maximize efficiency and output with limited resources. Digitization is key to cultivating a competitive edge, enabling faster transitions from product testing and development to registration and sales" said Ron Baruchi, CEO of Agmatix. "By deploying our technology, businesses like Deepak are advancing sustainable agriculture and enabling higher yields by continually developing their products in smart and efficient ways, contributing to global food security."

Deepak conducts 1,500 product development trials annually across in-house research centers, university partnerships and local farmers, who are able to keep and sell the crops at the end of the trial. These trials cover 24 major crops, including tomatoes, sugarcane, wheat, soybeans, coffee and tea. Managed by a team of 60 agronomists, the Agmatix platform assists with workforce management by assigning and tracking tasks.

Photophyll™ Select from CREE LED

Photophyll™ Select from CREE LED

Photophyll Select is a new phosphor-converted LED color with blue and green spectral output tuned for horticulture applications. These LEDs are designed to replace the white LEDs that are common in two-channel white + red horticulture luminaires. By maximizing green content and minimizing red content versus standard lighting LEDs, this LED color enables significant enhancements to luminaire cost and performance. Photophyll Select LEDs are the industry's first LEDs to be entirely binned in horticulture metrics, enabling more straightforward spectrum design without confusing translations or conversions. The spectral output of these LEDs is binned into two metrics, both of which are based on the amount of PPF in standard Blue (400-499 nm), Green (500-599 nm) and Red (600-700 nm) bands. The two spectral metrics are percentage of Red PPF content and the ratio of Green to Blue PPF content.
