Phytech brings end-to-end digital farming technology to Latin America

Phytech, a global leader in digital farming solutions, has announced its strategic expansion into key Latin American markets, including Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Chile, Uruguay, Guatemala, and Mexico.

 

 

This initiative underscores Phytech's commitment to empowering growers worldwide with agronomic and hydraulic monitoring and automation solutions. The company's presence in the region aims to address critical agricultural challenges, from water scarcity to optimizing fruit size and adapting to tropical weather conditions.

 

Phytech's Latin American operations include subsidiaries in Peru and Chile, with services already extended to growers in Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Guatemala, and Mexico. Leading these efforts is Ilan Liwski, a seasoned agritech industry leader with over 18 years of experience in global business development and sustainable agriculture, who will be based in Argentina.

 

"At Phytech, we deeply understand the unique needs of Latin American agriculture, and we are committed to empowering growers with technologies that enhance efficiency and sustainability," said Oren Kind, CEO of Phytech. "By leveraging our proprietary plant and field condition sensors, we deliver actionable agronomic insights that are executed through in-field automation controls, enabling optimized yields, water savings, and input efficiency. With service to over 1,000 producers globally, spanning 45 million trees and 18,000 sites, we are proud to support the farming community in maximizing both economic and environmental impact."

 

Phytech has developed a simplified, alert-driven mobile platform, combining predictive algorithms and data analysis tools that integrate continuous crop health and supportive environmental data, distilled into real-time recommendations. By providing clear visibility into tank level, pumps, filters and valves, Phytech's hydraulic monitoring capabilities enable real-time problem detection and predictive maintenance of a farmer's irrigation system, creating a speedy response to any issue. Without these "eyes" in the field, growers depend on manually checking key functions or detecting the problem only after the damage has occurred.

 

Ilan Liwski, Latin America Territory Manager at Phytech, commented: "Phytech's one-stop-shop approach provides growers with advanced in-house hardware and exceptional service, helping them achieve sustainable farming practices. By addressing critical issues such as water scarcity and precision irrigation, we are committed to supporting the agricultural community across Latin America with impactful solutions."
