Pessl Instruments, a global manufacturer and provider of agricultural technology solutions and holistic tools for informed decision-making under METOS brand, headquartered in Austria, and Solentum, a service company from Holland, offering data-driven solutions for the international potato value chain, have closed a partnership agreement in precision agriculture.
Over the years, Pessl Instruments has managed to reach out to every corner of the world, whereas Solentum was primarily focusing on Europe and India. Together they will explore new possibilities and market opportunities to support the potato chain by delivering tools which give more information and integration so the clients will be able to make better decisions and have a better ROI.
Commenting on the partnership with Pessl Instruments, Mr. Egbert Bakker, the managing director of Solentum, says: “We believe that the partnership agreement which Pessl Instruments and Solentum have closed, adds value to our customers. Being a part of the Pessl Instruments ecosystem opens up a global network for Solentum. We also share the vision that combined tools and services of both companies will improve decision making and support the potato value chain. With this partnership we will be able to improve the cooperation with our clients.”
Gottfried Pessl, CEO and Founder of Pessl Instruments, adds: “For over 25 years we have been working with leading potato growers and vertically integrated companies. Not only to assist them in better irrigation management, but also to help them manage the diseases and insects better. The partnership with Solentum opens up a new horizon for us where we will be able to estimate and monitor yield before the harvest, and control the entire food chain, including storage conditions, better.”
