Precision Agriculture · Smart Farming

The future of agriculture, today

We conceive bespoke solutions for each operation — from data analysis to the development of dedicated technology — with the aim of reducing risk and increasing efficiency.

About us

We turn data into agronomic decisions

Precision Agriculture generates an ever-growing volume of data that, in its raw form, adds no value to the operation or to decision-making. Agro Analítica is the independent consultancy that converts it into well-founded agronomic decisions, grounded in a thorough understanding of each plot and the variability of the operation.

Our approach is, by principle, bespoke. Like a technological tailor, each solution is conceived around the specific challenges and objectives of each client — from collecting field data to decisions grounded in facts and performance indicators. We support the operation's digital transition with a clear purpose: its agronomic, economic and environmental sustainability. As we are independent of brands and equipment, we recommend solely what best serves the client's interests.

Our ecosystem

  • Agricultural companies
  • Machinery service providers
  • Producer organisations
  • Equipment suppliers
  • Agricultural funds and investors

Precision · Knowledge · Results

Our services

We support agricultural production at three essential stages.

We help to think and plan

We collect and study in detail all the critical data of your plot before the investment. We evaluate the detail and promote discussion with the aim of minimising the impact of factors that may become limiting.

We organise the installation

We plan the crop installation in the plots based on a detailed study of soils, nutrition, digital terrain modelling and water availability. We design the operational calendar based on specifications. We coordinate and intermediate all field operations.

We follow the maintenance

We identify and assess limiting factors and their economic consequences, enabling rapid and effective intervention. We act at the level of phytosanitary protection, enabling targeted intervention in specific zones allowing cost mitigation and promoting greater environmental sustainability. We create a bridge between agronomic data collected in the field and pre-defined objectives (KPIs), promoting the quantitative and qualitative results of the final product.

Some of our tools

We provide a tailored service based on some of the following tools:

Geographic Data Collection

  • Apparent electrical conductivity of the soil (ECa)
  • Yield data
  • Drone imagery
  • Remote sensing
  • Altimetry and Digital Terrain Model
  • Soil nutrients
  • Soil profile opening and analysis

Crop Management

  • Data analysis
  • Micro-zoning
  • Failure detection (permanent crops)
  • Prescription maps (VRT)
  • Support in the calibration of agricultural machinery

Support for New Investments

  • Cultural aptitude
  • Edapho-climatic studies
  • Water availability
  • Environmental limitations analysis
  • Support in the acquisition of agricultural machinery

Technology & AI

Technology built to your measure

Like a technological tailor, we combine agronomic knowledge, data and artificial intelligence to conceive the solution appropriate to each case — including platforms and systems developed to measure.

  1. 01

    Predictive analytics

    We anticipate production and irrigation and nutrition needs through models that learn from the operation's historical data.

  2. 02

    Computer vision

    We analyse drone and satellite imagery to detect gaps, vigour, pests and water stress, plot by plot.

  3. 03

    Optimisation and planning

    We devise planting plans, management zones and prescription maps tailored to each field.

  4. 04

    Bespoke systems

    We develop bespoke digital platforms and tools — from GIS to automation — to convert data into decisions.

The team

Agronomic expertise, technological vision

Gustavo Caetano

Gustavo Caetano

Founder & Senior Consultant

A graduate in Agronomic Engineering since 1993, he worked for companies such as Triplanta, Bonduelle and Sociedade Agrícola da Alorna as production manager and director. Over more than 25 years working in the field, he acquired skills as a project manager, overseeing equipment, processes, budgets and people. Since 2016, he has also worked as an agronomic consultant, providing independent support to farmers. This is how the dream of creating an agricultural consultancy came about — which materialised as Agro Analítica.

António Coimbra

Agro-Management Consultant

He graduated in Business Management and Administration from Universidade Católica Portuguesa, but soon felt that his path had to go through agriculture. He obtained a master's in Agronomic Engineering specialising in Agro-Livestock from the Instituto Superior de Agronomia, and began managing, on a private basis, a super-intensive olive grove in the Ribatejo region. He is specialised not only in precision agriculture technologies but also in business management support.
