Pinoy startup uses Al to prevent crop damage
Business World Philippines
|March 26, 2025
AGRICONNECT PH, an artificial intel- ligence (AD-powered mobile app being developed by a student, aims to prevent crop loss and damage using farm risk management.
“This is very intuitive and straight- forward,” Aldrin “Soj” R. Gamayon, the 22-year-old founder and chief executive officer at AgriConnect PH, told Business- World in an interview. “It makes it more efficient for farmers and agribusinesses to act on things before it’s too late.”
Mr. Gamayon, who comes from a family of farmers, said his internship in Singapore and the challenges that his uncles encoun- tered in the farm inspired him to create an app that could help with crop loss.
After doing his research, the fourth-year Communications Technology Management student from the Ateneo de Manila Uni- versity noted that most farmers only rely on intuition and the naked eye when faced with production risks such as pests and soil moisture.
