Agri-technology for Pakistan's agriculture

Every grower's field, on the map and under watch.

Zaraat Dost surveys each cane parcel on the ground, then follows it from space through the season. Sugar mills, banks and estates across Punjab and Sindh run their territory on it.

Products

Three products, one picture.

The mill's platform, the bank's financing pipeline and the field app share the same surveyed parcels, so every number on every screen points back to a field someone stood in.

E-SurveyThe field app

Stand in the field. Select the parcel. Record the grower.

The Android app survey teams use in the field. Parcels are digitised in advance; the surveyor selects the parcel they are standing on and records the grower, crop, planting period or ratoon, variety, photos and location. Every survey then goes through QC on the dashboard.

Crop Monitoring

Better or worse than last year? Answer first.

For any circle, per mauza and per parcel, the product gives a verdict and keeps the measurements one press away. Season-to-date canopy against the same ground a season ago, and against what surveyed cane in this circle normally shows by this fortnight.

Compared with last year and with what is normal for the circle
Zone maps for canopy shortfall, change on last year, moisture and gaps

The six steps in detail

Zaraat Dost AI

Ask the mill a question in plain language.

An operations analyst inside the product. It answers from the mill's own live data using read-only tools, strictly scoped to the mills the user is allowed to see, and shows the numbers it used.

Solutions

Built for the people who carry the season.

For sugar mills

Procurement certainty, from the first survey to the last truck.

Owners, CEOs and cane managers want an honest picture of their territory: where the cane is, who grows it, which variety, and how it is doing before crushing starts.

Sugar mills

For banks and financing

A verified field behind every loan.

Agri-finance teams want to know the land exists, the crop is standing and the borrower is who they say they are. Zaraat Dost draws financing over parcels that were surveyed on the ground, photographed and watched from space.

Banks and financing

For corporate farms and estates

Leased and owned land, crops and surveys in one place.

Estates run across many farms, lessors and crops. The corporate suite keeps the boundaries, the surveys and the season in one map and one dashboard.

Corporate farms and estates

For associations and government

Territory-wide crop intelligence, district by district.

Industry associations and public bodies need to know how much of a crop is standing across a province, not a mill. The same platform runs cotton and maize territory at district, tehsil and mauza scale.

Associations and government

How we work

Numbers over adjectives.

The product was built to be honest about what it knows. So is the company.

Answer first, then the measurement.

The product says Behind, 22% less canopy than last year, and keeps the numbers one press away. The website is written the same way.

It refuses to guess.

When cloud cover or too few clear views make a verdict unsafe, crop monitoring says so instead of colouring the field anyway.

Growers are people, not data points.

Each grower is a named person with a CNIC, a code and a field. Their data stays scoped to the mill and the roles allowed to see it.

Real ground, not built-up ground.

Houses and roads are masked out so they never count as poor crop.
