ListenField applies scientific principles to analyse all relevant factors of rice production: 30 years of climate data, soil information, data on major rice varieties, and more than 100,000 observation points. They provide recommendations for improving productivity and reducing losses due to climate uncertainty.

ListenField also builds an ecosystem that empowers farmers and connects stakeholders. Farmers can sell their products on a digital platform, while digitised data also brings value to other stakeholders. Government agencies can use the aggregate data to better understand production and take action accordingly, while providing consumers with insight into where their food comes from and what planting methods were used.
