GAMAYA is a new company formed by the merger of Gamaya and Terraview. We offer a suite of unique AI-powered solutions to improve the productivity and sustainability of tropical crops based on technology developed at Swiss powerhouse EPFL and proven on millions of hectares globally.

In this series of blogs, we’re sharing more details about our three core products: CanaSight™, CanaTrace™ and AquaView™.

Let’s start with CanaSight™, our Smart Harvesting Solution for Sugar Mills! 

Sugarcane it’s the world’s most widely grown crop. It’s a globally-traded commodity. It is used not only for food, but also for biofuels and biomaterials – helping to unleash incredible possibilities for the future bioeconomy. When grown sustainably, it can be a powerful ally for carbon sequestration and in the fight against deforestation. Yet, it is a crop that remains underserved when it comes to innovation. We’re here to solve that. 

Introducing CanaSight™—GAMAYA’s AI-driven Smart Harvesting solution designed to tackle the unique challenges facing the sugar mills around the world. CanaSight™ has been designed to ensure that the sugarcane value chain can benefit from increased yields, reduced waste, and enhanced sustainability.

The Challenge: Complex Sugarcane Harvesting 

Sugarcane farming is inherently complex and resource-intensive. The harvesting process is a multifaceted endeavour, spanning approximately eight months in most regions, though in some locales, it may persist year-round. A myriad of considerations must be meticulously addressed to optimise harvesting operations – from harvest timing, to use of plant growth regulators, and logistics planning. Unfortunately, traditional methods leave too much to chance. This results in costly inefficiencies. 

The Solution: AI-Powered Smart Harvesting with CanaSight™

CanaSight™ is the world’s first and only AI-driven Smart Harvesting solution for sugarcane. Our patented technology platform brings precision and foresight to the sugarcane harvesting process, eliminating the guesswork of when, where, and what to harvest and enabling sugar mills to achieve sustainable and cost-effective operations. 

By empowering sugar mills to react to crop changes literally ‘on-line’ and in real time, CanaSight™ ensures that they can always execute the most effective harvesting scenario. The precision we bring ensures that every field is harvested at the optimal time, maximising sugar content, reducing waste, and improving logistics. 

Our product is already deployed around the world with leading sugar mills, with customers that include US Sugar Corporate, Florida Crystals and ATVOS. 

The mills we work with can increase sugar yields by tens of thousands of tons (up to a 5% sugar content increase) and drive millions of dollars in additional income, while also reducing their costs and meeting the highest standards for sustainability. 

Here’s how it works: 

Empowering Your Team with Advanced Tools

While CanaSight™ is at the cutting edge of technology, it’s designed to complement—rather than replace—the expertise of your agricultural teams. Our intuitive interface allows experts to fine-tune harvesting plans based on field conditions and strategic goals, enhancing decision-making capabilities. This collaboration between technology and human expertise ensures that operations are not only efficient but also adaptable to real-time challenges and changing needs.

In the words of US Sugar’s Mike Irey: “Gamaya’s forecasting results were significantly closer to real outcomes than our own estimates.”

A Call to Action for Sugar Mills!

For sugar mills – and any player involved in the production and sourcing sugar –  CanaSight™ represents a new era of reliability and efficiency. When sugar mills are equipped with cutting-edge tools like CanaSight™, everyone in the supply chain reaps the benefits.

If you are a decision-maker at a sugar mill, you know firsthand the importance of sourcing ingredients that are both sustainable and cost-effective.
