Success story of SAFRESCO and Hermisan, Innovation and Technology in Peruvian Agriculture

From the outset as Agrícola Hoja Redonda, SAFRESCO www.safrescoglobal.com has worked with Hermisan on the development of high-tech irrigation solutions.

This relationship, which began in 2006 with projects in Chincha focused on the cultivation of mandarins, has evolved over almost two decades, consolidating itself as an example of strategic collaboration in the Peruvian agricultural sector.

Today, SAFRESCO operates in Chepén and Chincha, two production centres dedicated to key crops like the table grape, mandarin and avocado. In these towns, the company has set up and improved advanced automated, control and fertigation systems on more than 1400 hectares of crops, distributed out into 20 independent irrigation projects.

SupraControl: Advanced Technology for Irrigation Management

One of the most outstanding achievements recently has been the implementation of the SupraControl advanced irrigation software in 20 irrigation huts. This system favours the:

  • Efficient control of irrigation and fertigation: It optimizes the distribution of water and nutrients in each hectare of crops.
  • Centralized visualization: It provides control panels that show data in real time.
  • Detailed statistics: It produces reports on the units of fertilizer (FU) applied per valve, hectare and plant.
  • Dynamic and versatile irrigation programming.
  • Informed decision-making: It includes temperature and moisture sensors, along with key indicators such as the vapour pressure deficit (VPD), which are essential for smart irrigation decisions.

Nutricompact: Innovation in Fertigation

The Nutricompact advanced fertigation system has also been incorporated into seven of the projects, which significantly improves the dissolution of nutrients in the irrigation water. The advantages of this include:
  • Efficiency in the use of nutrients: It favours a precise application of nutrients, which cuts down on the waste and the negative environmental impact.
  • Economic and ecological progress: Thanks to a more efficient use of the nutrients and the reduction of their impact on the environment.

Leadership in Peruvian Agriculture with Technology and Sustainability

Not only is SAFRESCO distinguished for its production capacity, but also for its commitment to technological innovation and sustainability. Thanks to the help from Hermisan, the company has managed to optimize its processes, to stay at the forefront of Peruvian agriculture.

The approach that is shared by both companies points to a promising future, where technology and sustainability continue to lead the way for the agricultural sector. Hermisan reasserts its commitment to supplying top quality solutions and added value, by consolidating its relationship with SAFRESCO and enhancing agricultural development in Peru.

A Promising Future

With innovative projects and a joint action approach in automated systems and control, Safresco and Hermisan continue to advocate the future of high-tech agriculture in Peru.

The SAFRESCO-Hermisan alliance is a clear example of how technology and innovation can transform the agricultural sector. Not only does this project stand for progress in automated systems and the control of irrigation, it is also a commitment to sustainability and the responsible use of resources, which positions SAFRESCO as the leader in the development of Peruvian agriculture.

This strategic alliance promises to carry on obtaining exceptional results, by combining the latest technology with a sustainable outlook that focuses on the future.
