Digital agriculture in focus: KWS deepens the integration of Agvolution’s agmeo AI for myKWS

The digital platform myKWS accompanies farmers throughout all agronomic stages – from sowing to crop monitoring and harvesting. Available in around 30 countries, the platform is continuously being enhanced and enables data driven decision-making for every single field. With the integration of Agvolution’s satellite data, crop intelligence and modeling technology, myKWS becomes even more precise in delivering site‑specific recommendations tailored to crop, location, and growth stage.

“We are delighted to have found a strong partner in Agvolution, which started as a start-up here in our life sciences-region in the south of lower saxony in 2020,” says Stephan Krings, Head of Global Marketing and Communications at KWS. “myKWS recommendations, empowered by Agvolution’s data, will help farmers use agricultural inputs even more efficiently and sustainably while optimizing yields with our seeds.”

Andreas Heckmann, Managing Director of Agvolution, also highlights the added value of the extended agmeo AI integration: “We are proud to support KWS's digital services worldwide through our agmeo AI platform. We transform fragmented field data into actionable insights - delivering real value directly to farmers worldwide.”
