Xpert Farmer is a farm management system that provides farm record keeping, labor and payroll management, accounting and finance and business analysis for data driven commercial production. It enables users to convert information from day-to-day farming practices into actionable business insights by facilitating collection, storage, and retrieval. The primary objective of the system is to solve problems related to manual farming business record keeping. Secondly, we aim to help farmers shift from un-business-like farming practices which include a total lack of proceeds records and shambled records that are unreadable and non-informative (does not make business sense). In addition, we intend to help farmers who have periodic-based records with end-of-cycle end-of-records and non-compliance.
As a record-keeping solution, we help farmers capture what goes on within the farm including:
• (Animals) Animal stocking, feeding, health, breeding and sales information
• (Crops) From crop selection, Land preparation, Planting, Fertilizer application, Irrigation, Pests and Disease Control, Weeding, Harvesting, Storage and Sales
• (Inventory) Utilities, Supplies & Equipment and Goods in Stock
Under labor and payroll management the system helps with:
• Employee records management
• Casual labor expenses
• Statutory deductions
Further, as a farm accounting solution, we provide automated:
• Chart of accounts
• Accounting journals
• General Ledger
• Trial balance
• Profit and Loss
• Cashflow
• Balance Sheet
In terms of business analytics, we help farmers visualize the proceeds within their farm with insights on:
• Production Input vs output
• Monetary Expenses vs Income
• Production progress vs business development
• Asset depreciation (Straight line vs Reducing Balance) vis a-vis production.
• Business value assessment
