What do we do?

Alvaz core business is to develop and operate software and algorithms that transform the images captured in the field into relevant agronomic information. Developing precise and impactful algorithms is certainly Alvaz's biggest challenge. Each step of Alvaz's workflow is led by a professional specialist who runs their sector and direct reports that form a team with diversified expertises and technical skills. AGRONOMIC INTELLIGENCE is to generate real value services to producers and researchers through information.

  • Our potential customers are usually companies that look for sustainable agronomic gains through accurate in impactful information. We have alternative business models depending on the client's demands and we are responsible for executing 100% of the workflow steps, starting from the flight and image capture, with our own flight team, continuing to processing and analysis up to the final step of making the services available to our own portal.
  • We have personalized contracts that fit the needs of each client. That means that we analyze what are the real needs of each client building a customized project that truly meets the agronomic demands.
  • Even though we have a wide range of commercial services available in our portfolio, we have the flexibility to develop new personalized services and algorithms in partnership with clients creating exclusive projects; We are proud of these research projects because they communicate directly with our vocation for Research and Innovation. Each project is analyzed with different perspectives and time requirements, they can be phased according to the request of the researchers involved.
  • We have clients with differentiated and innovative strategies that develop medium-term projects focusing on what the farmer is looking for. Such development can take 1 to 3 years and not just a harvest year.
  • Our services, software and algorithms are adherent and suitable for companies that have direct or indirect interaction with farmers, whether with research, commercialization of products, technologies or services provision of any type: manufacturers, researchers, suppliers, consultants, distributors, cooperatives, financiers, etc. We remain attentive for other business models that could benefit our clients and all those involved.

Alvaz works precisely by bridging agricultural companies and the fieldmeeting a range of demands for services, such as:

  • Seeds – genetic improvement, production, technical positioning, agronomic services, technical assistance and comparative performance analysis
  • Biologicals, pesticides, fertilizers, agricultural correctives – development, launch of products? , technical positioning and performance analysis
  • Biotechnology - technical positioning, agronomic services, technical differentiation and highlight of benefits
  • Agronomic services - support to assistance, technical recommendations, accuracy of crop information, systems evaluation
  • Machines and equipments – performance differentiation
  • Financial services - accuracy when analyzing the agronomic situation of crops
