Sinafis designs and markets connected sensors and objects to improve resource management for small farms. Their SinaSens system uses low-cost sensors to monitor soil/air temperature, humidity, and other factors. Data is transmitted via low-power networks to their cloud platform, which analyzes data and provides a web interface for farmers to monitor their land and receive decision recommendations. Sinafis aims to democratize technology for farms under 20 hectares and help improve yields and sustainability.

Market - Summary
• Resource management is one of the main concerns of farmers over the next 10
years
• 65% of the farms have fewer than 20 hectares (INSEE + Agreste 2010), but these
total over 1M hectares of fruit, vegetable and wine-producing farms.
• 200 agricultural cooperatives associated with fruit and vegetable farms (Coop de
France)
• Organic farms now represent 114 000 hectares (Agence Bio 2015)
• In Midi-Pyrénées, for example, the utilized agricultural land for greenhouse and
open field vegetables is 41 hectares with an average of 4 cultivated hectares
(Chambre d'agriculture Midi-Pyrénées.)
• The current cost of products available on the market is incompatible with optimal
exploitation of plots of less than 40 hectares (purchase cost: 700 to 1200 Euros per
unit + annual fee from 350 to 1000 Euros).
