Press Release: Integration of AGvisorPRO and xarvio™ SCOUTING Apps Now Launching

SCOUTING users will now be able to connect with agronomic advisors after taking a picture of an in-field problem, such as unknown weeds, diseases or insects, using their smartphone. Once they receive an instant result and high-level recommendations from xarvio SCOUTING, they can connect directly to agricultural experts on the AGvisorPRO platform by tapping the AGvisorPRO button embedded in the xarvio SCOUTING app. AGvisorPRO can provide an instant or scheduled connection to the expert via audio or video chat. Conversations are archived in the AGvisorPRO app for farmers to reference anytime.

“We are excited to see this integration between SCOUTING and AGvisorPRO launch, which gives our users additional help to address issues with weeds, disease or insects effecting their crops”, says Marek Schikora, Global Product Owner for xarvio SCOUTING, BASF Digital Farming. “Being able to seamlessly connect to experienced, local agronomic advisors at AGVisorPRO further complements BASF’s customer support team and local retailer network across Canada, ensuring farmers are able to access the best agronomic advice possible.”
