Soiltech Beacons travel with the crop from soil to storage — monitoring conditions throughout. Insights generates the complete documentation chain buyers, auditors, and food safety teams require, built automatically as the season unfolds.
Food buyers, processors, and regulators increasingly require documented evidence of what happened in the field — not assertions. Building that documentation retrospectively at season end is slow, incomplete, and expensive. Soiltech builds it in real time as the season happens.
Modern food buyers and processors require verified, documented records of growing practices — not self-certified checklists assembled at audit time.
A food safety event requires instant traceability back to source — which fields, which inputs, which conditions. Reconstructed records never have the detail needed.
What happened in the field is only half the traceability story. Storage temperature, humidity, and transit conditions affect final quality — and most operations have no objective record of them.
Consumer and retail demands for verified sustainability data — water use, input applications, soil management — require documented evidence that narrative claims can't satisfy.
Beacons start monitoring at planting and travel with the crop through harvest and storage. Insights captures every activity throughout. The traceability record is complete before the auditor asks for it.
From the moment Beacons are deployed, soil moisture, temperature, and canopy conditions are continuously recorded — with timestamps and GPS location. The field record starts at planting, not at audit time.
Every spray, every input, every field observation — logged via AIVA voice input in real time throughout the season. The management record builds as work happens, not at the season's end.
At harvest, Beacon units continue monitoring temperature, humidity, and condition — through transport and into storage. The environmental record doesn't end at the farm gate.
When the processor, auditor, or buyer requests documentation, Insights generates the complete traceability record — from soil conditions at planting to storage conditions at delivery — in minutes.
The only traceability record that satisfies an auditor, resolves a dispute, or supports a sustainability claim is one built continuously — not assembled retrospectively.
When a food safety audit, buyer due diligence, or regulatory inspection arrives, the complete traceability record is already in Insights — every activity, every condition, every timestamp. Ready in minutes.
Beacons monitoring temperature and humidity during transport and storage extend the verified record beyond the field — giving processors and buyers an objective account of post-harvest conditions.
Every spray record carries the product, rate, application method, operator, weather conditions, and field location — logged at time of application, not reconstructed later. That's a record that survives scrutiny.
Water usage, pesticide applications, soil management practices — documented continuously throughout the season and available as verified data for sustainability reports, retail audits, and ESG commitments.
When a quality problem emerges at intake, Beacon data from transport and storage identifies whether the issue was field-origin or post-harvest — protecting grower relationships and enabling accurate diagnosis.
Processors who receive verified traceability documentation from their grower suppliers don't just reduce audit risk — they build the kind of supply relationships that survive disruptions and command premium access.
Traceability is the product of continuous monitoring and continuous record-keeping. Beacons handle the first. Insights handles the second. Together they produce a documentation chain no retrospective process can replicate.
From planting through transport and storage — soil moisture, temperature, humidity, CO₂, and GPS location recorded continuously and objectively. The environmental record that travels with the crop.
Explore BeaconsEvery input, spray, and field observation — logged in real time via AIVA voice input and auto-associated with field, date, and conditions. GAP, food safety, and processor documentation generated on demand.
Explore InsightsGrowthLab links growing conditions to quality outcomes — identifying which farms, conditions, and practices consistently produce the quality your processing operation requires.
Explore GrowthLabA processor's annual food safety audit requires complete input application records for every grower supplier. Each supplier's Insights record generates the full documentation package automatically — delivered before the auditor's arrival.
A quality problem emerges at intake. Beacon data from transport shows a temperature excursion during a 14-hour transit period — not a growing condition or storage issue. The processor can locate the problem accurately, protect the grower relationship, and address the logistics failure.
A major retail buyer requests verified sustainability data — water usage, pesticide applications, and soil management practices — for their supplier audit. Insights generates the complete verified report from the grower's documented season record. No manual assembly.
An early frost event triggers a crop insurance claim. Beacon environmental records show exactly when soil surface temperature dropped below threshold, for how long, and across which fields. The adjuster has objective evidence — not a grower's account.
