Key Takeaways:
- New Digital Platform: Doriane’s Bloomeo Biosolutions is designed to help researchers and developers optimize bioproduct performance by turning trial data into actionable insights.
- Data Integration: Centralizes data from trials across different locations and types of crops, integrating advanced analytical tools like AI and meta-analysis.
- Real-Time Monitoring: Enables real-time data collection and analysis through mobile apps, improving the accuracy of product testing and field trials.
- Sustainability Focus: Aims to enhance the development of biocontrol, biostimulants, and biofertilizers, contributing to sustainable agricultural practices.
Doriane, a global leader in agricultural innovation software, has announced the launch of Bloomeo Biosolutions, a digital platform aimed at helping researchers and developers optimize the performance of bioproducts such as biocontrol agents, biostimulants, and biofertilizers. The platform will be unveiled at the ABIM Congress in Basel, highlighting how Bloomeo can revolutionize the evaluation process by integrating AI-powered meta-analysis of trial data.
“Bloomeo helps consolidate all our data—whether from trials on our own sites or managed by external agencies globally—allowing us to perform in-depth analysis on metadata,” said Valentin Pitiot, Head of Market Development at KelpBlue.
Tackling the Complexity of Bioproduct Testing
Testing the efficiency of bioproducts like biocontrol agents is challenging due to the varying environmental factors that influence their performance. Bloomeo Biosolutions addresses this by organizing and analyzing trial data, offering insights into which environmental conditions optimize or hinder product performance. The platform’s ability to standardize reports and perform meta-analyses enables companies to monitor key factors over time, providing a clearer understanding of when and where bioproducts perform best.
“By standardizing information, adding extra data layers, and analyzing multiple factors, Bloomeo should boost the success rate of these products,” said Louis Gauthier, Co-owner and Managing Director of Doriane.
Streamlined Data Integration and Real-Time Monitoring
One of the platform’s key features is its ability to integrate data from various trials and field experiments. This centralization helps eliminate duplication and ensures that all stakeholders, including contract research organizations (CROs), agri-partners, and distributors, have access to the same data. Real-time data recording through the Bloomeo mobile app allows field teams to capture observations, upload photos, and centralize trial data.
The software also incorporates sensor, drone, and satellite data, providing a comprehensive view of field conditions and allowing for more accurate trial analyses.
Advanced Analytics for Better Decision-Making
Doriane’s Bloomeo Biosolutions includes advanced analytics tools that save time by standardizing data collection, creating historical records, and allowing users to conduct multi-factorial meta-analyses. By using machine learning to detect outliers and applying statistical models, Bloomeo helps companies make informed decisions based on the trial data. This is especially useful when evaluating products across multiple environments and agricultural practices.
Boosting Sustainability in Agriculture
By allowing bioproduct developers to gather insights on the best conditions for product performance, Bloomeo Biosolutions supports the development of more sustainable agricultural practices. These bioproducts enable farmers to reduce or even eliminate chemical inputs, helping to improve both economic outcomes and environmental impact.
“Biostimulant and biocontrol companies invest significant time and money in trials, but often lack the tools to fully utilize the data collected,” said Louis Gauthier. “Bloomeo’s integration of data and analytics changes that, offering actionable recommendations for farmers, including the best dosage, application methods, and return on investment.”
