Tomato farming is one of the critical agriculture sectors in many Southern European countries, including Italy, Spain, and Greece, known for producing some of the highest quality tomatoes in the world. Despite its importance, farmers in these regions often face problems in managing their farm operations efficiently, minimizing operations, and increasing crop yield. One such farmer approached us seeking help to overcome the challenges and operational inefficiencies they were facing. The process they were adopting for their operations was heavily manual, leading to wastage of time, food spoilage, and missed sales opportunities due to a lack of information.

Farm production was reduced by 30 to 40 % due to labor shortages and poor decision-making. Silent Infotech overcomes these challenges by implementing customized ERP solutions for tomato farming, especially.
