REDUCING FOOD LOSS
The Urgency of Modernizing
Philippine Agriculture
In 2020, the Philippine Fruit & Vegetable Industry produced approximately Php 402.634 Billion Pesos worth of crops. Still, we lose 10-40% of this before it even hits the markets and individual consumers.
Climate change and infrastructure problems aside, late actions, biased decisions, and resource mismanagement result in low yields and inconsistent quality. In today's competitive landscape, Philippine Agribusinesses must transcend from using instinct, traditional methods, and manual tracking in their operations.
Without an effective data collection and decision support system in place, the Philippines' agriculture sector risks losing 161 billion pesos worth of crops each year.
All of this is the very reason for AniTech’s existence.
The Food Loss Problem in the Philippines
Production
Storage
Distribution
Lack of visibility, monitoring and access to real-time data
Inconsistent farming processes due to human perceptual bias
Inconsistency in quality within and between harvest cycles
Spoilage due to the lack of maturity tracking and late response to system failure
Distributors spend more to account for spoilage
PRODUCTION TO DISTRIBUTION EXPERIENCES A 10 - 40% SPOILAGE RATE / FOOD LOSS
