One swallow does not make a summer

With increasing nutrient prices, organic fertilizer plays an enormous role in the Saxon farm. Therefore, we designed a software project for efficient and legally correct storage for the LfULG. From the click dummy, which guides you through the project interactively, to the backend logic, we have provided the customer with great added value for the subsequent implementation. The algorithms used were clearly prepared for the specialist department.

The DSNOnline process by means of the soil portal works as follows:

• The farmer orders nitrogen sampling for the required fields online in the soil portal. At the same time, all necessary information for fertilisation recommendations is provided.
• The information of the requested nitrogen samples from the farmer are sent to the supervisor.
• The supervisor distributes the necessary materials for nitrogen sampling.
• The farmer takes the soil sample for nitrogen analysis.
• The supervisor receives the nitrogen soil sample from the farmer and transmits sampling times and label number to the soil portal.
• The laboratory receives the nitrogen soil samples from the supervisor.
• The results of the laboratory analysis are sent to the soil portal.
• The soil portal sends the results of the laboratory analysis as well as the necessary data to the interface of the Bavarian State Institute for Agriculture (LfL). The interface sends a fertiliser recommendation back to the soil portal.
• The farmer receives the result and the fertiliser recommendation from the soil portal.
• Laboratory, supervisor and farmer receive the invoice from the soil portal.

The app application works as follows (the example here is mowing):

• The farmer and all persons involved in the process download the app to their smartphone
• The farmer marks on the app all the areas he wants to mow
• The area data is downloaded from iBALIS to the app
• The farmer distributes the area information via his mobile phone book to all persons involved in the process and gives them access to the area (e.g. the mowing machine, the mowing machine, the mowing machine itself, mower driver, swather, forage harvester, hunter, who is looking for the deer)
• All participants receive the release on their smartphone for the task
• They see on the map both the areas assigned to them and those of the other drivers

The determination of the nutrient balance with the help of the soil portal works as follows:

• After fertilization, the farmer or his adviser prepares a nutrient balance for the current calendar or marketing year (using the field-stable approach)
• The farmer provides the following information total area, area per crop, amount of purchased mineral fertiliser, amount of purchased foreign fodder as well as fodder use (e.g. use in the biogas plant, for ruminants or other animals), number of animals kept, use of the manure/manure produced
• The portal automatically calculates the balance from the data: the difference between nutrient requirement per hectare minus fertilisation per hectare. This shows the extent to which the fertilization was adapted to the nutrient requirements of the areas
• The farmer prints out the calculated nutrient balance. If a consultant is interposed, he or she sends the balance by post to the farmer
• Costly calculations (e.g. hours) are automatically forwarded from the soil portal to the accounting systems and settled
• The farmer can see the nutrient balance in the appendix, how many fertilizers he has applied on average over the last 3 years and can therefore plan for the future

Our job specifically

• Conception of the nutrient balance
• Development of the web- Application
• Inclusion of the relevant ordinances and government agencies (LfL)
• Training of the persons involved
• Design of the documents for the nutrient balance

The calculation of the nitrogen balance using the soil database works as follows:

• Before or after fertilisation, the farmer or his adviser makes a 170 kg N calculation for the current calendar or marketing year
• The farmer makes the following entries: total area, area per crop, number of animals kept, use of the manure/manure produced, quantity and use of the fruit harvested (e.g. for biogas plant), use of the fermentation residue
• The portal automatically calculates from the data the value that divides the organic fertiliser available by the area. From this, it becomes clear to what extent the 170 kg N limit is complied with
• The farmer prints out the 170 kg N calculation. If a consultant is involved, he sends the calculation by post to the farmer
• Costly calculations (e.g. hours) are automatically forwarded from the ground portal to the accounting systems and billed

Our job specifically

• Conception of the 170 kg-N calculation
• Development of the web- Application

The app application works as follows:

• The app is available in the Google Play Store (Android) and the Apple Store (IOS), but can also be accessed via the web browser. Both web and app applications are written in the same programming language (hybrid programming language) and therefore available for all media (Apple, Android, Web). This saves time and costs
• The farmer enters his prices into the app
• He stores specific quality parameters depending on the crop to be sold (e.g. for wheat: protein, parity, payment term, quantity)
• Regularly recurring information can be created as favorites. The basic information is then already pre-filled in the mask
• The farmer sees the anonymized prices of other app users in his region

Our job specifically

• Complete redesign and development of the app application
• Consulting in the creation of incentive systems for the farmer
>Training of the people involved

• The farmer receives up-to-date information via push message on his smartphone
• The contributions can contain all common media types (e.g. photos, videos, PDFs, Excel tables)
• Current contributions: The consultant gives the contribution a start and an end date. During this period the contribution is visible for the farmer. For the adviser, the contributions can be found in the archive after the expiry date
• Thematic search function: The adviser can create contributions and classify them according to agricultural criteria. The farmer can thus quickly find all contributions on the same topic
• Photo database: The advisor can store classified pictures in an agricultural photo database. Other advisors can view the images and use them for an app contribution if required
• The costs for using the app are automatically transferred to the accounting department and settled with the farmer

The determination of the fertiliser requirement with the aid of the ground portal works as follows:

• The farmer selects the areas on which the requirement determination is to be carried out. He or his advisor creates a fertiliser requirement determination for the current calendar year in the soil portal. For each crop (e.g. cereals, maize), a separate determination of requirements can be created, which is adapted to the different fertilisation dates in each case
• Only the relevant information for each use (e.g. grassland, arable land) is requested from the soil portal for each area
• The farmer prints out the calculated determination of requirements. If a consultant is involved, he or she sends the requirements assessment to the farmer by post
• Cost-based calculations (e.g. consultant hours) are automatically forwarded from the ground portal to the accounting systems and settled

• The soil samples requested by the farmer are transmitted to the ring keeper.
• The farmer draws the soil sample.
• The ring attendant receives the soil sample from the farmer and transmits the sampling times and target laboratory to the soil portal.
• The results of the laboratory analysis are transferred from the ring keeper back to the soil portal.
