Protecting Fields and Vineyards with Digital Tools
Kwizda Agro Provides Farmers and Winegrowers with Comprehensive Digital Support Through Kwizda Xperience (KX) for Targeted and Sustainable Plant Protection.
Vienna, February 21, 2025 — Agriculture faces significant challenges: climate change, new pests, and stricter regulatory requirements demand increasingly precise and efficient plant protection strategies. As a result, digital tools are becoming essential in agriculture, complementing traditional methods effectively. With its new platform, Kwizda Xperience (KX), Kwizda Agro introduces a digital solution that actively supports farmers and winegrowers in their daily work and helps protect their crops more effectively. The new platform will also be presented at informational events in all Raiffeisen Lagerhaus Wine Centers in Lower Austria (see details below).
One-Click Plant Protection – Tailored for Farmers and Winegrowers
Kwizda Xperience offers four innovative microservices specifically developed to meet the needs of farmers and winegrowers. These digital tools provide continuous monitoring of weather data and infection risks, allowing for better planning of plant protection measures—easily accessible via smartphone, tablet, or PC.
- KX Rain – High-precision precipitation analyses based on current weather data from renowned services.
- KX Field – Early detection of infection risks for field crops with accurate forecasts.
- KX Vine – Tailored pest forecasts for viticulture, aligned with specific growth phases.
- KX Planner – Digital support for efficient and cost-transparent spray planning.
“The demands on plant protection are becoming increasingly complex. Digital tools like Kwizda Xperience help farmers and winegrowers monitor pests more effectively, apply plant protection measures more precisely, and secure their yields,” explains Ronald Hamedl, Managing Director of Kwizda Agro.
The digital transformation is also impacting agriculture: those who aim for long-term success must embrace modern technologies and digital tools. Kwizda Xperience offers a practical solution that seamlessly integrates into daily farm operations, giving users greater control and confidence in plant protection planning.
