Improved Field Practices and Data Efficiency on Centralized Digital Platform
TELEHUZ AGRISERV
Introduction
Agriculture has historically been a central part of the economy of Romania’s Ialomita County. The region’s fertile lands have long been used to grow wheat, corn, sunflower, and other grain. Telehuz Agriserv SRL is one of the leading farming enterprises in the area. Founded in 1992 and based in the village of Marculesti, the company grows a number of arable crops. In order to upgrade its level of production, Telehuz implemented AGRIVI farm management software, simplifying its farm operations and improving decision-making based on real-time field insights.
Challenge
Approaching 20 years of continuous production, Telehuz Agriserv is one of the leading growers in their area, growing approximately 4000 tons of wheat, corn, sunflower, barley, and other cultures annually.
To secure quality and timely decision making, Telehuz Agriserv is tracking multiple aspects of its farm operations, from field records with applied agronomic practices, weather insights, pest insights, and historical data like crop rotation to farm sales and expenses. The company tried using different applications to store and manage data and used paper notebooks to manually track what was being done in the fields. In time, data management became an overwhelming and time-consuming task.
“I believe one of the biggest challenges, not only for Telehuz Agriserv but for a lot of farmers as well, is having all of the data in one place and to finally be rid of papers, diaries, and Excel” stated Andreas Telehuz, Farm Manager at Telehuz Agriserv.
“AGRIVI provided us with a valuable platform to improve our field practices and enabled us to switch from struggling with a lot of papers to making data work for us.”

Solution
To bring their farm management practices to the next level, Telehuz Agriserv decided to invest in a new tool to upgrade their farm management processes and have selected AGRIVI. “The implementation of AGRIVI farm management software went very smoothly and was done with great success. AGRIVI provided a training program and their software is user-friendly and truly easy to use”, stated Andreas Telehuz, Farm Manager at Telehuz Agriserv.
Not long after the implementation, the first improvements were already visible. AGRIVI farm management software contains a number of features designed to support growers to manage all farm activities and be as efficient as possible. When implemented, it provides a central platform through which farmers can easily enter, store, track and interpret all of their data, creating a digital twin of their farms.
That meant Telehuz Agriserv no longer had to edit extensive and ever-so-complicated spreadsheets, enter the same data twice or use multiple apps to manage different types of data inputs. With AGRIVI, all of their entries were stored safely, presented clearly, and accessible anytime, anywhere, and through any device.
Furthermore, apart from improving the way in which Telehuz Agriserv collected and stored its data, AGRIVI also provided a platform to analyze it and gain better and actionable insights. Real-time insights into crop progress, powerful farm analytics module, and finances were found to be especially useful, enabling Telehuz Agriserv to make better decisions with the support of AGRIVI software that ultimately improves the company’s bottom line.
