Hi Dash community, this week part of our team was focus in make relationships with different partners for expand the Dash use in the agroindustry. The last friday UpDrone Company, who are our commercial partners for the photographic survey in the field, they welcomed us in their office, to coordinate the strategy and schedule to photograph the first crop to train in our platform. The good news for the community is that not only will they accept Dash on our AgroCognitive platform, they will also do so for any work contracted with their team.
Hello guys, keep building this good project and go for the best results. Keep it updated for anyone who wants to check it out. Best wishes for you all.
Hello, Dash Community! This was a very productive week for AgroCognitive! Past Tuesday we attended to an important meeting with Fundacaña to talk about our project and generate allies in the sugarcane field. Fundacaña carry out research, technology transfer and technical assistance aimed at the development of the Venezuelan sugar industry. For us it was fundamental to know Fundacaña team, because they work with some of the biggest sugarcane centrals of our country. We are already working together and soon we will have more important news with this alliance. Soon you will be able to see a video with the impressions of the Fundacaña team about AgroCognitive and the use of Dash as payment method!
Greetings to the Dash community We are pleased and excited to be part of this community. We thank the people of Agrocognitive, our commercial partner in precision agriculture, for introducing us to this community. We have started a path of positive things and we are sure that this alliance will be full of success. UPDRONE

May-17-2018 Project Updates AgroCognitive and @Cryptolifex 's team started the process of integrating their platforms to create a payment button that will allow AgroCognitive customers to buy DASH (using the Venezuelan local currency) to pay for the monitoring services of their crops. This will be part of the payment engine of AgroCognitive (in case the client doesn't have DASH and must buy them), this integration API will simplify the necessary steps to do it. We appreciate the will and congratulate the team of CriptoLifeX and we welcome them aboard!

May-21-2018 Project UpdatesHi everyone, Attached our budget controlling report Operacional Expenses Capital Expenditures
May-23-2018 Project UpdatesHello Dash Community, This week our team went to SOCARAGUA in Aragua State. There, different members from farmer sector, like "Centralización de Hacienda" and "Agrícola Santa Teresa", and PMC Group from the agroindustry sector, had the opportunity to learn more about how Dash makes a difference in the agricultural sector of the region. We answered their doubts and offered a new vision. A vision they want to start working with as soon as possible. As our next step, we’ll start with the information recollection to continue with the technical training of our solution. Tomorrow we’ll share a video with the testimonials of the farmer association "Centralización de Hacienda" and what they think about the use of this technology in their crops. We are very motivated to continue promoting Dash as the solution to the problems that the industry has today. UPDATE

May 28 - Project UpdatesHi community, as every monday. We post our project's budget controlling dashboard Operacional Expenses Capital Expenditures
May 29 - Project UpdatesHello community. We are finishing the business logic layer of AgroCognitive. For those who like databases (I personally don't really like them ). Here's a summarized entity-relationship model of how our database looks right now. Basically, we are saving the information associated to a client's plantation (Terreno) and its crops (Cultivos). Associated to those, we have the tables for the history of the weather (Clima), the measures of the crop's ground properties (Medicion), the information of production of the past harvests, and the activities done on every crop. All these stats will be used by AgroCognitive to make a diagnostic and give a prediction based on analytics models. Finally we have the diagnostic (Diagnostico) of what affections or diseases does the crop have, and the payment (Pago) where we store the information of all the payments with Dash done by a user.
May-30-2018 Project Updates Hi Dash community, this week we worked with UpDrone team for a information-collecting process of images, coming soon we will show you news in the field.
A very interesting meeting where some technical issues of great importance were detailed to successfully carry out the first tests of the project. In UPDRONE we are sure that it will be a contribution without presedentes for the agroindustrial sector.
May 31 - Project Updates We already have the AgroCognitive Web app UX map. Next monday UX Lead and Visual Designer will began to design UX templates & navigation model.
Jun 01 - Project Updates Hello community! This is part of our merchandising material for workshops, fairs and other events. We have already included the new DASH branding. We will be glad to hear your opinions
Jun 05 - Project Updates Hi community, As you know, AgroCognitive was unfunded for June month, however we post our last project's budget controlling dashboard. As you can see, some expense accounts have not been executed, particularly purchases related to Software and subscription to IBM Watson services. Software: We are waiting for the arrival at our offices of the equipment where the software will be installed. When they arrive they make the purchase online IBM Watson: we have completed the forms and signed the ESA contracts in order to subscribe the service under a modality that will allow us to resell the knowledge acquired by AgroCognitive. This process is slow and we depend on IBM to complete the process and make this purchase There are others Consulting Expenses that depends on some pending deliverables, Telephone & internet expenses that depends on office's new internet instalation works in progress. Any questions, we are ready to answer. Follow our pre-proposal post to know new AgroCognitive's roadmap announcement. Thank you!
Jun 11 - Project Updates Hello, everyone! Last Thursday we were talking about AgroCognitive with students of Computer Engineer of the Simón Bolívar University. We talked about how Artificial Intelligence can be integrated into agriculture with a project like ours, and how Dash can be an accelerator for the acceptance of the project in the sector. We are glad to receive not only feedback from our final clients, but also from the technical side. Our partners from UpDrone joined us that day. They even made an exhibition flight with a small drone! Here you can see some of the experience
Hi Dash community, At this opportunity i will share a World Economic Forum report where they talks about the important to technology role in accelerating food systems transformation.
