Intelligent irrigation & farm operations systems
We design and operate intelligent irrigation and farm monitoring systems that help growers, agribusinesses, and institutions reduce water waste, improve yields, and manage agricultural performance in real time.
Irrigation intelligente conçue pour les vraies opérations agricoles — prescriptions journalières FAO-56, validées par l'agronome, entièrement traçables.
The challenge we're solving.
Traditional agriculture is breaking under climate, economic, and geographic pressure. We rebuild it from the ground up.
Water Scarcity
MENA agriculture consumes 70% of regional freshwater — over $800M lost annually to desalination.
Limited Arable Land
Less than 30% of Algeria's land is farmable, costing $200M in lost productivity each year.
Import Dependency
Algeria imports the vast majority of its food — $1.2B exposed to global price volatility.
Toxic Input Costs
Spent annually on fertilizers and pesticides that degrade soil and contaminate water.
Three systems. One operating layer for agriculture.
Practical agricultural operating systems that help farms use less water, improve field performance, and manage production with clearer visibility and control.
Vertical Farming Systems
High-efficiency production with stable crop cycles and precision-controlled operations — better consistency, tighter environmental control, and more predictable output.
- 300m² facility = 1,400m² productive area (4.7× space efficiency)
- 70 production units, 4m multi-layer rack system
- NFT hydroponic systems with patented spectrum-tuned LED
- Smart HVAC with UV sterilization, recovers 400L/day from humidity
- Closed-loop fertigation — zero waste output
- Growth Towers in 6m, 9m, 12m configurations
- CAPEX: 9.5M DZD per 300m² unit — best-in-class entry point
GB GrowTune — AI Farm Operations Engine
The intelligent brain behind every farm. Pick a crop, and AI handles the rest — from seed to harvest, with live optimization across irrigation, climate, and yield.
- 120+ AI-enhanced farming recipes (plant-to-harvest automation)
- Real-time monitoring: lighting, nutrients, microclimate, growth
- Computer vision neural networks track per-plant health
- Predictive analytics for yield optimization
- IoT sensor integration with NVIDIA Jetson edge computing
- Cloud-based 24/7 remote monitoring & alerts
- Subscription: $2/m²/month recurring — no farming experience needed
Drone Monitoring & Crop Diagnostics
Drone-based field monitoring for crop health, disease detection, and operational tracking — faster visibility, better decisions across daily farm operations.
- Aerial crop health & disease detection across large fields
- Multispectral imagery and field diagnostics
- Operational tracking for daily farm decisions
- Faster visibility into stress, irrigation, and growth anomalies
- Reports designed for agronomists, operators, and institutions
Smart irrigation, built for real pivot operations.
A complete decision-support platform for center-pivot farms — daily prescriptions calculated with FAO-56 Penman-Monteith and real water-balance models, calibrated per pivot. The agronomist reviews and validates every prescription: no blind automation, only documented, science-backed irrigation decisions.
Une plateforme numérique intégrée pour la gestion de l'irrigation des fermes à pivots — prescriptions journalières calibrées par pivot, validées par l'agronome, et entièrement traçables.
10 calculation engines. 14 functional screens. 3 data layers.
Weather (ETo), spectral-thermal imagery (Sentinel-2 / MODIS), and soil-water balance — fused into a single operational dashboard so agronomists can act on every pivot with confidence.
Données météo, satellite et bilan hydrique fusionnées en un tableau de bord opérationnel unique.

Resource scarcity demands unprecedented efficiency.
Our systems turn environmental constraints into operational advantages — measured in the field across irrigation, controlled-environment agriculture, and diagnostics.

Built from the realities of drought, infrastructure limits, and agricultural pressure.
We develop practical agricultural systems for regions where water efficiency, climate control, and operational reliability are not optional — combining irrigation intelligence, controlled-environment agriculture, and field diagnostics into systems that institutions and operators deploy with confidence.
Applied agricultural intelligence
Field-ready systems that connect sensing, control, and decision-making to measurable performance — not lab demos.
Execution in constrained environments
Our work is shaped by arid conditions, infrastructure limits, and the need for resilient, low-waste production models.
Institutional collaboration
We speak the language institutions understand: reliability, efficiency, evidence, and public-impact relevance.
From first meeting to daily ops — in 5 clear steps.
No expensive hardware. No heavy infrastructure. We start with a free field visit, calibrate the models on your data, and open the platform — usually in under two weeks.
Aucune installation matérielle coûteuse. Une visite terrain gratuite, calibration des modèles, et plateforme opérationnelle — en moins de deux semaines.
Free field visit — no prior commitment.
Visite terrain gratuite — sans engagement préalable.
