Over the years we have gathered expertise in crop planning from our experience working with various growers and crops in the field. HottiServe recognizes the importance of planning production, to mitigate against losses in income, yield and quality of crop associated with seasons and poor planning. There are three types of Field planning services we offer our clients and growers.
Crop Planning Guides
We prepare crop planning guides where needed to help growers estimate their costs of producing various crops. Due to variation in costs and yield on each farm, more accurate crop planning guides are provided upon request taking into consideration the growers’ amount of equipment, inputs and agronomic practices used. These planning guides help farmers estimate incomes and costs of production for the different crops they intend to plant.
Crop Rotation Guides
We prepare seasonal and annual crop rotation plans for growers that guide them on where to plant their crops. This helps the growers avoid major problems related to pests, diseases, weeds and nutrition that is associated with haphazard planting.
Crop Scheduling
We assists farmers in scheduling their plantings in line with market demands, thus preventing seasons of over/under supply whilst ensuring year round supply of produce. We study existing market trends as well as consult with the growers regarding their markets in order to achieve seamless supply of produce.
