Areca-Tech
Technology for the field and the forest

Data science at the service of genetic improvement and the domestication of native trees

Areca-Tech builds digital platforms that connect researchers, nursery growers and field teams around a shared goal: turning agronomic observation into structured data — and structured data into decisions. We are the creators of Areca-Sys.

Who we are

Software with agronomic roots

Areca-Tech was born from the need to organize — in the field and on the screen — a kind of knowledge that usually lives in notebooks, scattered spreadsheets and in the memory of those who plant. We build digital tools for research, genetic improvement and agroforestry management teams that need reliable data to decide — today and across decades.

We work side by side with specialists in plant genetics, soils and agroforestry systems so that every screen reflects how the work truly happens in the field, the nursery and the lab.

  • Genetic improvement

    Complete tracking of mother trees, crosses, pollen and fruit collection, with a recorded lineage of the origin and destination of every pollination.

  • Domestication of native trees

    Precise geolocation, phenotype and photographic history of each individual, from the wild mother tree to the plant selected in the field.

  • Agroforestry field management

    Plots, parcels and farms with soil, climate, management and yield data organized in a single, queryable hierarchy.

Our product

Areca-Sys: mapping and identification of palm trees

Areca-Sys is the platform that started Areca-Tech: a complete system to map, identify and track palm trees in the field — starting with macaúba and bocaiuva — and which today serves as the foundation for genetic improvement and domestication work.

  • Individual identification of every plant
  • GPS coordinates, plot, parcel and area
  • Phenotype, flowering, fruiting and health
  • Photographic history and field observations
  • Traceable genetic lineage

Technology that follows the entire research cycle

Beyond Areca-Sys, we build tailored digital solutions for teams that need to turn scientific knowledge and operational routine into reliable systems.

01

Genetic improvement

Genealogy, crosses, pollinations and individual selection with end-to-end traceability.

02

Domestication of native trees

From the wild individual to the cultivar: phenotype, adaptation, yield and history preserved.

03

Agroforestry field management

Spatial organization of farms, parcels and plots, connected to management and environmental data.

04

Applied artificial intelligence

Models that turn field data series into patterns, alerts and actionable recommendations.

How we work

From the field to the data, with people who know the field

01

We listen and map

We understand the field routine, the critical decisions and where knowledge is lost.

02

We model the data

We translate agronomic science into clear, secure and connectable structures.

03

We build and test

We build prototypes in short cycles and validate them with the people in the field.

04

We evolve with the data

The platform grows as the history becomes richer and new questions arise.
