Treefera Brings Field-Level Agricultural Intelligence to Smartkarma
Treefera has announced that its Market Intelligence products are now available through Smartkarma, a global investment intelligence platform serving more than 250 institutional investors and trading desks. The distribution partnership enables Smartkarma subscribers to access field- and plantation-level yield forecasts, production area estimates, and risk assessments with quantified uncertainty ahead of official reporting cycles.
Treefera’s intelligence is powered by satellite data, growth-stage scientific modelling, and deep learning. According to the company, this approach addresses longstanding gaps in agricultural and soft commodity markets, where data is often fragmented, delayed, and based on national averages that may not reflect real-world supply conditions.
Raghav Kapoor, CEO of Smartkarma, said: “Smartkarma is focused on delivering differentiated, actionable intelligence to over 250 institutional investors and trading desks globally. As we expand our commodities coverage, Treefera’s first-mile agricultural forecasts add a powerful layer of forward-looking, probabilistic insight to our platform. For market participants active in US agricultural and global soft commodity markets, earlier visibility into supply conditions and quantified uncertainty enhances positioning, volatility assessment and risk management, while further strengthening the depth and expertise of our Insight Provider community.”
