Syngenta is partnering with Al Dahra, an agribusiness stewarding 400,000 acres of irrigated farmland across six continents, to implement Syngenta’s digital farm management solutions across more than 220,000 acres of Al Dahra farms in Romania, Serbia, Egypt and Morocco.

In a statement from both companies, by implementing Syngenta’s Cropwise Operations, Al Dahra will be able to centralize farm data across its operations in multiple countries and production sites, and optimize its farm management decisions – from the individual field level to across its entire operations.

Through the collaboration, Al Dahra aims to improve the sustainability of its agricultural operations, ensure long-term productivity and secure its feed supply.

Syngenta’s Cropwise Operations is an all-in-one platform integrating modules for agronomic, financial and administrative farm management, which will be integrated with Al Dahra’s existing digital tools. Real-time data will enable Al Dahra’s farm managers to respond to emerging pest or disease situations, better manage water usage and irrigation efficiency, and to optimize and target their seed, fertilizer and agricultural input use.

“By partnering with Al Dahra, we’re demonstrating how data-driven insights can transform large-scale farming operations across diverse geographies,” said Feroz Sheikh, chief information and digital officer at Syngenta Group. “This partnership not only revolutionizes farm management and optimizes yields but also sets a new global standard for sustainable, data-driven farming.” Cropwise digitally connects 70 million hectares of farmland at present.

Arnoud van den Berg, Group CEO at Al Dahra, said the company is “always looking for ways to push the industry forward through innovation. Our vision for the future is clear: a smart, digital infrastructure that works for us, cutting down on manual data entry and giving our employees more time to focus on what really matters. One of our biggest goals is to automate reporting as much as possible, ensuring real-time insights into everything happening on our farms. To make that vision a reality we needed the right partner, and Cropwise Operations stood out as the perfect fit for taking our farm management to the next level.”
