About the Customer:
Corteva Agriscience, one of the Fortune 500 corporations, is a global agricultural, chemical, and seed company based in the USA. To help farmers increase productivity and crop quality, the company offers an extensive portfolio of products and services that combine genetics, chemistry, and precision agriculture.
Business Challenge
The company approached Infopulse to get help with their digital transformation strategy and digitize the paper-based process of silage analysis conducted by promoters and sales agents. An essential process of attracting prospects and providing them with useful and personalized offerings regarding the Corteva products and services. It allows sales agents to propose farmers tailored products and services based on the review of their silage (feed for livestock).
The manual process of collecting data, including various measurements of the farmer’s silage, was getting challenging as organizing final data samples manually was time-consuming and could lead to data inconsistencies and duplicates.
Considering their current technical resources and future business plans, Corteva opted for a native mobile iOS application with the potential for further extensions to organize the data collection and optimize promoters’ workflow.
Solution
In the course of 12 weeks and under a strict deadline, Infopulse experts designed and developed the mobile application from scratch. We started our project with the UX/UI phase by analyzing the existing business processes and specifying the deliverables. We interviewed SMEs and other stakeholders to identify key user experience metrics and requirements. With the scope confirmed and the UX concept approved, we proceeded to the development stage. Since Corteva Agriscience operates in multiple countries, we ensured the adaptability of the solution to various markets and geographies as well as further modifications.
A React Native mobile application has the following features and functionalities:
- User-friendly data collection forms available for iOS (iPhones and iPads)
- An offline mode allowing data collection without Internet access and subsequent sync with the backend after getting back online
- A list of preplanned farms with routes and maps
- Predefined field values for silage data (density, temperature, pH levels, etc.)
- Separate field options for contact information and photo attachment
- The possibility to create an Android application in the future with the existing codebase

Business Value
The solution delivered by Infopulse met the requirements and expectations of Corteva Agriscience. A React Native mobile application aims to simplify the user experience, remove human error and increase the data accuracy of the silage analysis process. Automating and digitizing such an important and complex process is integral to the Corteva Agriscience business development and scaling.
The successful collaboration prompted our client to extend the cooperation with Infopulse for new projects. Furthermore, we are preparing the next stage of the mobile application project to incorporate product development for other regions and various integrations.
