SASIME

The climate change affects Europe harder than other parts of the world, and the Mediterranean region harder than the rest of Europe. Unfortunately, rural Portugal is exemplary for this. What if...We could grow food in a true regenerative and healthy way? And we could help restore biodiversity at the same time? Mixing crops instead of monocultures and without the use of fertilizers or pesticides? Without having to use a lot of water, building extensive infrastructure or manual labour?

For this, we are developing SASIME: System for Autonomous and Smart Irrigation in Mixed-crop Environments. The key features are:

• Precision Irrigation: Flexible nozzles deliver water directly to each section, ensuring optimal hydration for every plant, in a mixed crop biodiverse environment.

• Adaptive Intelligence: Algorithm adjusts irrigation to the unique and changing water needs of mixed crops.

• Smart Data Integration: Combines real-time soil humidity and live weather data to optimize timing and efficiency.

• Solar-Powered Autonomy: Solar panels generate energy for the system while providing protective shade for crops.

• Self-Sustaining Water Supply: Advanced harvesting unit captures rain and air moisture, securing full water independence.

We are looking for seed-investors and technology-partners to build our proto-type.
