Smart Coffee · LoRaWAN · Precision Agriculture
A distributed sensor network spans our 26 hectares, quietly logging the variables that decide whether a Robusta cup is good, great, or worth talking about.
The System
Traditional coffee farming relies on intuition, calendar, and weather forecasts. We use all three, but we verify them with data, and we trust the data when they disagree.
Ambient temperature, humidity, leaf wetness, solar radiation, logged minute-by-minute across multiple zones of the farm.
Moisture and temperature at multiple depths to track water availability and inform shade and irrigation decisions.
Heat-unit accumulation and historical patterns let us predict harvest windows at the parcel level, not by guess, but by curve.
Continuous pH, temperature, and dissolved oxygen monitoring during our 16-day extended fermentations. Reproducibility, not luck.
Bean moisture, ambient humidity, and bed temperature inform when to turn, when to cover, and when a lot is finished.
Every kilo of green is tied to its parcel, harvest date, fermentation run, and drying curve. Available to every buyer.
The Parent
Oro Verde Coffee is the specialty coffee brand of Viva Planet, a Panama-based agricultural technology company developing the most advanced precision-farming platform for tropical crops in Central America.
The sensor stack, the data pipelines, the predictive models, we built them in-house. The coffee is what we use to prove they work.
Every signal from the field flows into a unified platform that informs cultivation decisions in real time and produces a verifiable record for every lot we ship.
Technology in coffee is not a marketing layer. For us, it is the operating system the farm runs on.
