Farm Digitisation for Regenerative Sugarcane at Scale

Regenerative programmes stall between pilot and scale because the registry, field operation and data quality function were never built.

The challenge

  • Practice programmes — trash mulching, reduced tillage, drip conversion, nutrient rationalisation — are delivered through field staff with attendance recorded but adoption unverified.
  • Mill-level sustainability reporting requires hectare-level practice data that the procurement system does not hold.
  • Pilots succeed on a committed manager’s attention and fail to reproduce across districts.

How the platform solves it

Farmer profiling and plot mapping

Every supplying farm is registered with boundaries, irrigation source, variety, ratoon status and practice history, creating the registry that scaling depends on.

Package of practices delivery and tracking

Standardised practice packages are configured per agro-climatic zone and delivered through the field app, with adoption recorded per operation per plot rather than per training session.

Satellite verification of practice signals

Residue retention, bare soil and vegetation vigour signals are analysed against the plot boundary to corroborate reported adoption and prioritise verification visits.

Hectare-level sustainability reporting

Practice adoption, water use and emissions intensity aggregate from plot records to mill and corporate level, so reporting is derived from field data rather than estimated.

Outcomes

  • Adoption measured per plot, not per training attendance
  • Practice programmes reproducible across districts
  • Mill-level reporting derived from hectare-level records
  • Baselines in place for future carbon project development
