Accelerating sustainable food systems through software

Producing enough healthy and sustainably grown food is one of the greatest challenges of our time – especially in the face of climate change, a growing global population, and declining soil quality.

Our AgriTech & Food Crew, led by Janna and Peter, sees it as their responsibility to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and quality across the entire agricultural and food value chain. Their mission: driving the industry's transformation with software. Are you on board?

Let’s turn your product vision into user-centered software that not only boosts the efficiency of your machines but also creates real value for farmer – and for our planet.

Staying ahead in the field with modern telemetry

GRIMME GSC Middleware

As a leading manufacturer of agricultural machinery for potato, beet, and vegetable cultivation, GRIMME is also a pioneer in digital agricultural technology. However, the development of the GRIMME Smart Connect (GSC) telemetry unit faced recurring challenges: There was no stable, maintainable middle layer between the supplier’s hardware and the customer-facing applications.

Reporting plant production

Conserve resources & operate in a future-oriented manner

From farm management, crop and herd management to precision farming - digitization and automation have long been part of modern agriculture. With its modular platform for digital farm management, 365FarmNet is a leader in the field of agricultural software. The system supports farmers not only in the planning and control of work processes and in documentation, but also in sustainable, resource-conserving and cost-optimized farming. Large volumes of data are generated in the process.

Efficient model maintenance at CLAAS

Manage code automatically

Whether combine harvesters, tractors or forage harvesters: As one of the global market leaders in the field of agricultural technology, the company CLAAS has stood equally for innovative strength and for the durability of its products for more than 100 years. This combination presents a complex challenge to software development for agricultural machinery: the parallelization of new developments and the model maintenance of different generations of series products.

Inquiry Management

All customer inquiries at a glance

With over 150 machine types, GRIMME, as the international market leader for potato, beet and vegetable technology, not only has a particularly broad product range, but also additionally offers numerous configuration options. This means that every machine is different and is built specifically for the individual customer. This leads to a high level of complexity and effort in processing customer inquiries.

Software that increases efficiency and reduces costs

Many starting points for a digital agriculture and food industry

Select a category and explore our use cases.

We develop custom software that enables the autonomous operation of agricultural machinery, making workflows more efficient and precise. This allows farmers to manage their fields around the clock and deploy labor more strategically.
Intuitive user interfaces for machine control are essential, enabling simple and efficient operation directly from the cockpit. This ensures that farmers always have full control over their machines and processes.
Analyze field data in real time to ensure precise seeding, fertilization, and pest control. Our custom software solutions maximize yields while helping farmers reduce resource use, such as water and chemicals.

With slashwhy, we have found a development partner at eye level for a long-term and sustainable collaboration, who lives the same agile mindest in software development as we do.

Henrieke Otte

Product Owner at 365FarmNet

Just as our company stands for individuality and customer focus in agricultural machinery, we have come to know slashwhy as equally tailored and user-centered in software development.

Kim-Nadine Meyer

PO & IT-Business Partner at GRIMME

Thanks to IRIS I can save money as a customer of Höfelmeyer: by reducing the loss of raw materials, by making processes easier because I digitize them and save time, but also because I get final evaluations from the software.

Viktor Rempe

Technical Leader at Höfelmeyer

slashwhy initially supported us in frontend development and gradually evolved into a full-stack partner, independently implementing subprojects for us.

Henrieke Otte

Product Owner at 365FarmNet

We have learned a lot from slashwhy, especially with regard to automated testing, and have also applied this knowledge to other software projects.

Tailor-made software solutions for your AgriTech or Food project

Deep understanding of your domain

Our dedicated AgriTech & Food team of 50 experts knows the agriculture and food industry from more than just textbooks. Some of us grew up on farms, while others come from the digital industry. Today, we combine deep agricultural roots with strong digital expertise—bridging both worlds effectively.

Innovative ideas from experienced teams

More than 250 digital talents at slashwhy work across industries such as logistics, manufacturing, energy, and medical technology. In addition to our strong agricultural and food expertise, we bring valuable insights from other sectors into your project. This allows us to offer fresh perspectives and think beyond the obvious.

Committed to long-term partnerships

Deeply rooted in the agricultural sector, we prioritize long-term collaboration. Instead of delivering one-time solutions, we continuously develop software alongside our partners to create lasting value. Our focus remains on the real needs of farmers and consumers.

slashwhy and we share the same mindset. From the very beginning, both the professional and personal exchange worked seamlessly. During the kick-off, we set the framework for our agile collaboration – and it has truly paid off.

Axel Schröder

Director Advanced Engineering at CLAAS E-Systems

slashwhy initially supported us in the front-end area and then gradually developed into a full-stack partner that implements sub-projects independently for us.

Henrieke Otte

Product Owner at 365FarmNet

Scrum or even other agile management methods that we learned about with the development of IRIS were completely new experiences for us. These are now applied even as far as to strategy development.

Ralf Schulz

CFO at Höfelmeyer

From the beginning, slashwhy communicated honestly and transparently about what was possible under the time and budget constraints.

Dennis Herzog

Team Leader IT Development at GRIMME

The major benefit of the solution developed with slashwhy is that we can run the further development of the series products in parallel with the new development projects.
