After identifying a potential dairy, beef, or crop project that could benefit from Sweetwater technology and its knowledgeable team, the company will implement a suitable country and location-specific program. Farm management teams provide training and knowledge transfer to improve output, increase crop productivity, and develop a system of efficient agricultural operations. For effective operations, our teams assemble needed resources such as the suitable modern practices, the necessary infrastructure and local labor resources. There are a variety of tailored programs in which food production and land arability can be greatly improved by Sweetwater technology and its agriculture management teams, we call FAST.
Our FAST teams are comprised of agriculture experts that have considerable experience working in emerging market and post-conflict countries. These “development” teams have proven skill sets to facilitate knowledge transfer with a complete understanding about how to bridge cultural and language barriers. A high level of sensitivity is required as agriculture development is inextricably linked to economic growth and peace in many emerging nations. We recognize that in developing countries, farmers’ activities are a cornerstone of development and national pride.
Sweetwater collaborates with in-country partners who typically own the majority of the project and trains local management teams. When farms become known for producing quality crops, they are open for new opportunities and markets that emerge from interested corporate partners and sponsors. With the introduction of Sweetwater techniques, farmers have the opportunity to join new supply chains, which complete a more virtuous cycle of agriculture. A sustainable business model is delivered through a combination of green technology and experienced professionals helping farmers bridge the challenges of environment, development needs, and agribusiness best practices.
