Sales Force Automation for Agriculture & Agro Chemicals

Agriculture Sales Force Automation Software for South African Growers and Agri-Retail

Built around the way South Africa farms. Agronomists work trial blocks and grower days, technical reps carry the commercial-farm and agri-co-op pipeline, and agri-retail reps run province beats. Rand sell-out reads back by province, crop and SKU.

How It Works

One Platform, Three Agriculture Field Roles

Agronomists work district clusters. Technical reps carry commercial farms and agri-co-op accounts through to order. Agri-retail reps cover province beats. All three sit in one app, and sell-out comes back from the DMS to close the loop.

Agronomy Calls, Trial Blocks and Grower Days

Maize, wheat, sugar cane, citrus and deciduous fruit each set a different calendar. Visit planning sequences the calls, trial-block walks and scouting rounds against the planting and spray window, so advice lands while the grower can still act on it.

Commercial Farm and Agri-Co-op Pipeline

Technical reps log farm-manager meetings, agri-co-op procurement reviews, trial-block readings and quote stages in the field activity layer. Tonnage and rand value are forecast per account, and whichever stage is open decides who gets the next call.

Agri-Retail Beats and Emerging-Farmer Cover

Counter sell-out flows into the analytics layer by outlet, province and SKU. Ask 1Voice AI something like "which five farm supply stores grew fungicide fastest this season" and the answer comes straight back, with nobody building a report.

Complete Platform

Attendance, Pipeline, Grower Records and Claims

The whole agriculture field stack in one place: province-level attendance, commercial-farm pipeline, agri-retail beats, grower profiling, order capture, claims and leave.

Province-Level GPS Attendance

Face-checked selfies plus a geo-fence tuned to the role. Agronomists check in inside their district cluster, technical reps at the farm gate, agri-retail reps at the store front. Whatever lands there rolls into the workforce view.

Commercial Farm and Co-op Pipeline

Stages run from the first farm call through quote and award to delivery. Each one holds the farm manager and co-op procurement contacts, the trial-block readings and a rand forecast. Route planning re-cuts the week around whichever stage is live.

Grower Records and Order Capture

Log the crop, hectares under plough, the brand already in the shed, pest pressure and buying intent. Orders write straight into the DMS allocation layer so the rep sees live stock on fertiliser bags, seed packs and crop-protection containers. Rand totals are agreed before the rep leaves the counter.

Claims, Leave and Timesheets

File expense claims for long farm runs and grower days, with a card or instant-EFT slip attached. Leave management carries the South African public holiday calendar, and timesheets export ready for payroll.

Apps that Run the System

The Apps Your Agriculture Team Opens Every Morning

Two 1Channel apps carry the work from farm gate through to the channel. Both ship on Google Play and the App Store and share a single backend with the admin portal.
