“The D2V project started with a need from the chemists. We needed something better to cope with our data. With data volume growing and growing, we had to find a better way to work with that.”
- Dr Joachim Dickhaut, Senior Principal Scientist Agricultural Research, BASF
Research and development (R&D) are crucial to BASF’s Agricultural Solutions division, leading to innovations that are essential to finding the right balance – for farmers, agriculture and future generations.
To cope with increasingly more complex and comprehensive data in R&D for new crop protection products, Dotmatics and BASF Agricultural Solutions worked together to enhance the division’s R&D IT infrastructure.
With a 3-step phased approach, BASF Agricultural Solutions successfully reached the goals of the ‘Data to Value’ project. As a result, all steps of the data lifecycle – experiment planning, sample creation, testing, and scientific analysis – are handled by Dotmatics’ unified data-centric platform.
