Smart Fertilizer Software Signs Deals with Syngenta, Others to Expand Globally
Smart Fertilizer Software is expanding its global outreach by signing several new, high-profile clients. The fertilization and irrigation sensor-less software, which is part of YB AgTech (Yellow Brick Capital’s group of precision ag companies) has recently signed deals with leading global agriculture company Syngenta and Mexican fertilizer distribution company ISAOSA, amongst others across the world.
The traction and uptake of their new offering Groplant, a combined irrigation and fertilization platform, reiterates the importance of the role of affordable, easy to use, precision data in sustainable agriculture. The spill-over has been that Smart Fertilizer Software has received increased interest in its precision fertilization services as well as its white label offering, where clients can purchase a virtual copy of the software but with their own company branding and products uploaded to the recommendation.
The recent interest is due to companies and businesses seeking an ESG offering, something which Smart Fertilizer Software provides through their strong role in the sustainable agriculture space. ESGs have become one of the biggest talking points in recent months. The ‘environmental’ deliverance provided by using Smart Fertilizer Software is attracting businesses who are seeking to enhance their ESG provisions to attract investors and boost their worth.
Smart Fertilizer Software’s customers benefit from precision fertilizer recipes affording increased yields and sustainable farming practices through accurate and in several cases lower fertilizer, pesticide, and phosphorus use. The environmental factor of reducing these chemicals within food production makes Smart Fertilizer an attractive ESG investment.

For example, Exeter Produce Ltd., based in Ontario Canada, revealed that by using the software system, it has been able to reduce pesticides by 25% whilst increasing yields of their crops (rutabagas and bell peppers) by 144% and 68%, respectively. Furthermore, via the Smart Fertilizer Software, a squash field in Tonga produced a 7% yield increased whilst reducing total applied fertilizer from 500 Kg to 468 Kg. Most notably, the Smart Fertilizer recommendation plan reduced 100% the phosphorous application due to naturally high content in the soil.
Johnathan Kol-Bar, CEO of Smart Fertilizer, commented: “In recent weeks Smart Fertilizer Software has signed a number of clients across the world who recognize the one-of-a-kind service our software is offering. These clients, which include Syngenta and ISAOSA, are some of the biggest and most-respected companies in the agriculture world. Interest in Smart Fertilizer, and the precision ag industry, is growing rapidly as global businesses are beginning to understand the importance of sustainability, environmentalism, and food security. From speaking with our customers and clients, ESG credibility has become hugely important for businesses, and we expect to see this grow in 2022.”
