Custom ISAGRI integration
ISAGRI has been making agricultural software since 1983, including Geofolia for field and crop records and Pig'Up for pig farming in the Benelux. What the farmer, contractor or pig farmer records there is also needed in invoicing, accounting, an adviser's system or your own reporting, and is often retyped there. Appfront builds the integration between ISAGRI software and those systems, so that a field operation or a litter in the barn is recorded once and is correct everywhere.
What is an integration with ISAGRI software?
An ISAGRI integration lets ISAGRI's agricultural software exchange data with the systems you use alongside it. In Geofolia, you record operations per field on your smartphone, with a map module, costs and yield per crop, variety and field, the digital crop protection register and the phytosanitary lists via the integration with Fytoweb. In Pig'Up, you record breeding, treatments, movements and losses in the barn, using the QR code on the sow card. ISAGRI itself already integrates with, among others, ear tag readers, feeding systems and genetics companies. A custom integration covers the rest: your invoicing, your accounting, your adviser or your own overview.
Without an integration, that data is retyped. A contractor records every operation in Geofolia Loonwerk and enters it by hand into their invoicing at the end of the month. An arable trading company asks every grower again for acreage and inputs. An adviser to a pig farm gets an Excel export every month and pastes it into their own model. Every copy costs time, and anyone who wants to know how a field or a group of pigs is doing has to look in two systems.
We build custom because every farm has different systems alongside ISAGRI. Which ISAGRI package you use, whether you are a grower, contractor or adviser, which data you need and which side is the source for which data determines how the integration works. Pig'Up can export data to Excel and XML, among other formats; ISAGRI does not publish public API documentation. In the first step, we look together with you and ISAGRI at which integration options your environment offers.

How we build your integration with ISAGRI software
We start with your business: which ISAGRI packages you use, which systems run alongside them, which data is currently retyped and by whom. Then we build the first integration, usually the flow that costs the most manual work, such as contract work to invoicing or barn data to the adviser's overview. You work with it for a season or a few rounds. Other flows and checks follow once that works well. After that, we maintain the integration when ISAGRI, the regulations or your other systems change.

What an integration with ISAGRI software actually does
The components below appear in almost every ISAGRI integration. Which ones you need depends on your package and on the systems you use alongside it.
Operations
From Geofolia, per field.
Contracting
Invoiced per customer and field.
Products
Usage sent to your accounts.
Housing data
From Pig'Up, per group.
Adviser
Data with the right permissions.
Reporting
To your own overview.
Who we build an ISAGRI software integration for
The integration is intended for businesses that use ISAGRI software every day and also have systems that do not talk to it as standard. The more fields, customers or animals you have, the more it delivers.
Arable farmers
Fields and crops.
Agricultural contractors
Operations to the invoice.
Pig farmers
From housing to overview.
Advisers and trade
Data from multiple farms.
Technology and integrations
This page is about integrations with ISAGRI software. If you want your own field-by-field record keeping, see our page on field records for arable farming; for the register of crop protection products, our page on spray records; for machine and terminal data, our page on the ISOBUS integration; and for the administration of the whole farm, our page on agricultural accounting software. You can read about our approach on building software.
Why Appfront for your ISAGRI software integration?
An operation that does not make it onto the invoice, a product that is recorded differently in two registers, or an adviser working with last month's figures costs a farm money and visibility. That is what we build on: record data once on the farm, a clear source for every item, and an integration that shows you when something went wrong.
Less retyping
Data comes along automatically.
Reliable
One source per data item.
Visible
Errors in the log.
Security and privacy for an ISAGRI software integration
The integration processes business data from growers, customers and animals. It sends only the fields that are needed and gives an adviser or trader access only to the farms and data the farmer has given permission for. Every exchange is logged with its time and content.
The integration runs in a European data centre, with encrypted connections. Keys and passwords are kept secure and are not visible to staff. The data remains the farmer's: if they withdraw their consent, the exchange stops.
Frequently asked questions about an ISAGRI software integration
Questions that growers, contractors and advisers ask before they get started.
A connection between ISAGRI software, such as Geofolia or Pig'Up, and another system you use, such as your invoicing, bookkeeping, advisory system or your own reporting. Operations, products and housing data then transfer automatically, without retyping.
A French company that has been making agricultural software since 1983. In the Benelux, ISAGRI supplies, among other things, Geofolia for field and crop records, Pig'Up for pig farming, weather stations, a soil sensor and Factomos for electronic invoices.
Yes. Geofolia retrieves the crop protection lists via Fytoweb, and Pig'Up integrates with ear tag readers and feeding systems and exchanges data with genetics companies such as Topigs Norsvin and Danbred. A custom integration is for the systems that are not on that list.
ISAGRI does not publish public API documentation. Pig'Up can export data to Excel and XML, among other formats. We agree with you and ISAGRI in the first step which integration options are available for your environment, and under what conditions.
Yes, this is one of the most requested integrations. The operations per customer and field go to your invoicing or bookkeeping, using the rates you have set up there. Cases of doubt end up in a list for your accounts team.
The integration retries, and puts an exchange that keeps failing into an error list with the reason attached. You see what went wrong and can resend it once it has been corrected.
For agricultural contractors with many clients, arable farmers and pig farmers with large operations, and advisers or traders who work with data from several farms. For a small farm with a few exports a year, retyping is often cheaper than an integration.
