Tracit and the CMS data process

A centralised crop tracking and analysis database custom-built by Crop Monitoring Services to facilitate the speedy input of field data and prompt, accurate generation of reports for growers and their Fruitfed Supplies representatives.
 

CMS has developed an advanced database system capable of storing pest and disease monitoring data collected from all key crops grown in every significant growing region in New Zealand.
 

Brand-named Tracit, this software packages takes into account all industry monitoring protocols. Tracit’s reporting function is one of its key attributes, capable of returning information in a variety for formats to suit the specific requirements of growers, nominated third parties such as spray contractors, consultants and packhouses, as well as relevant industry bodies.
 

Written in conjunction with international agricultural software provider Muddy Boots Software, Fruitfed Supplies’ Tracit system is a key tool for doing business with international markets in the future as it demonstrates food safety, traceability and quality assurance.
 

Tracit makes it easier for growers and packhouses to analyse pest and disease trends on a local, regional or nationwide basis. It forms a valuable tool for helping growers maintain auditable spray diaries and demonstrate their engagement in sustainable management practices.
