The abbreviation API is more and more common in gardening . The terminal figure is not raw , the technique has been around for a while . Because of economies of scale and ever - increase data indigence in gardening , the program Programming Interface comes in ready to hand . " But it is not a goal in itself , just a technique , " emphasise Dirk Prins on behalf of Priva . " With just an API you are not per se helping a client . "
Being a Strategic Business Manager with 35 years of experience in horticulture , Dirk has witness important changes in the diligence . " Developments are always ongoing . The sphere never stand still . Thanks to genus Apis , development can go even faster . An API is the flying and easiest way to cognitive operation and partake datum . "
Dirk describes it as a putz to " get at a library of data " . Priva itself already generates a lot of data , but in a horticultural public with more and more sensing element and also other technique , more and more datum is available .
datum integrating for a fellowship - wide perspectivePriva One integrates data for a company - wide view . The system , officially launched this summertime , is the " ultimate integrated answer for prognosticative and scalable culture , " according to the De Lier - base climate computing specialists . CEO Hans Peters summarize it upduring GreenTech Amsterdam 2024 :
" Things are increasingly fluctuating in and around the glasshouse . Think about vigor , climate , and sustainability . Moreover , more and more party bring additional intelligence to finish with their technologies . With Priva One , we integrate solutions from pardner such as Blue Radix , IUNU , and Source.ag . "
The first step in the digitization of gardening was the move to Excel . Dirk : " Growers get look at data to make decision . You could exchange data from Priva , with a CSV Indian file . " But that ’s a technology of the past . It still works , but that ’s no path to keep up with the late digitization of horticulture . " Thanks to data point exchange via genus Apis , Priva One is able to support cultivator in develop crops profitably at scale . "
Their software system developers are more and more ask for genus Apis . Dirk : " They no longer want CSV files . " Priva ’s Open Platform and API links open a mountain of doors , he note . " This make the full potential drop of data available to the market . "
Feedback from the plantThe growth of Priva One goes step by footstep . Within Priva One , there is datum for the entire polish cycle per second and datum for the 24 - 60 minutes cycle . Dirk notices an increase need for sensors that tell what the plant life has done . These kind of sensors provide datum on how the craw has responded .
How did a specific variety perform ? What was causing the disturbance ? Why is production down ? Accurate , up - to - appointment datum which provides harvest perceptiveness is going to avail growers with sympathise what needs attention , and to make in effect , data - driven option . "
at last , customers do n’t notice much from using APIs . " It is mainly the result of an integration that the agriculturist sees , " Dirk knows . He does observe that parties make with genus Apis enjoy work with a fixate dataset , with datasets that are as complete as potential , and which allow them to take new gradation .
Screen Priva One . get through here to magnify .
grower lick with many parties at the same time . Priva is one of them . " Through Priva , Priva One admit growers to choose the party that works for them . That can also be a local party . After all , in the United States or Scandinavia , these are different parties than in the Netherlands . We enrol into integrations and concord with such party . In this way , we alleviate customers , also internationally , so that they can opt the solution that suit them . " include those from startups . " Thanks to genus Apis they can quicker provide added - value to the market . "
It ’s no longer just data from Priva , as it once was , but it still remain data that is render through Priva with the customer retaining possession of the data . " We want to become the App Store of horticulture , " say ambitious CEO Hans this summertime .
Or in Dirk ’s words : Priva connect data libraries , giving freedom to growers . " Advancing the market is our obligation . With Priva One , we layed the creation . Now , more party can get involved . But what ’s important is that every solution , big or small , provides summate value . The food market is not looking for convenience . "
