Solutions for

Agriculture

Running a profitable farming and agriculture business depends on having timely, accurate, powerful information so you can make the right decisions. As an agriculture business leader you know there are a huge variety of external factors that impact your business success — crops and livestock commodities markets, global and regional supply and demand, local weather patterns, changing consumer tastes, expansion into other regions, import and export tariffs, and more.

Whether you’re running a medium-sized holding, a national enterprise, or a global agricultural conglomerate, you need to extract actionable intelligence from an incredibly challenging environment. You need to quickly see food trends, visualize future supply and demand, integrate your data with other systems, and use agricultural trading strategies to maximize your profits and forward contracts.

That’s where Zema Global comes in.

"Our driver for bringing in Zema Global was to replace our incumbent system. We evaluated several data management vendors to ensure that Energy New England (ENE) was implementing the solution that best balanced functionality, cost-effectiveness, and professional support. ENE manages over 700 MW of load, 500 MW of generation and $300 million in structured transactions annually. Not only has Zema Global helped ENE streamline a number of our work and reporting processes for our clients, we also have a versatile tool that will grow with our evolving needs and are working with a vendor that we can trust."
