CASE STUDY Following to the successful pilot project that took place in TKPM Bukit Changgang in October 2017, Atilze has developed the smart fertigation system for a chilli farm, which had since produced 6 months worth of valuable data. In alignment with MDEC’S lead, Atilze has started rolling out smart farming in Teluk Mengkuang. This programme will prioritise on solution deliverables centred around chilli farming and similar crops in this 1st phase. The new satellite farm will be relocated from the existing PPK Langat Collection Centre to the eLadang Lab 1 which is located at Teluk Mengkuang, 2km away from TPKM Panglima Garang. This is a one and a half acres land which will be used to plant chillies. This satellite farm will improve production yields; lower and optimised usage of consumables and recurring cost; and provide an innovative supply chain which will create a reliable and continuous sales channel for farmers especially for the young ventures. Moreover, farmers will be able get to go on site for practical training on new technology. This pilot project will be funded by MDEC. The new satellite-powered agricultural management platform will empower all agriculture stakeholders to bring cutting-edge technology to their fields by increasing yield and quantity, together with competitive cost of production and application of digital economy solutions & business model to create innovative supply chain from farmers to market. Increasing Yield More than 20% With Fertigation System Teluk Mengkuang, Malaysia
