Nayer Raymundo-Lagmay, Kubota Philippines Inc.’s ICT Manager, underscores the importance of internet connectivity in Kubota Philippines’ operations. “Internet connectivity has a big role in our operations because most of our communications and program applications are cloud-based. As the main tools of our daily operations, reliability and connectivity are a must. Because of Converge, our communication with our branches, satellite offices, and customers has become more effective and easier. We hope to continue this stable connectivity to maintain seamless and integrated operations,” adds Mr. Lagmay.
Converge and Kubota Philippines’ alliance has improved KPI’s digital readiness, allowing for more effective adoption of smart agriculture technology and open communication with local dealerships and customers. This cooperation exemplifies Kubota’s aim of a technologically advanced and digitalized agriculture industry in the Philippines.
Recent global developments, such as climate change, have reignited the debate over food security, as continuous reliance on conventional farming practices reduces the country’s output, making it imperative for Filipino farmers to embrace innovation through new farming methods.
Aware of this predicament, Kubota Philippines has made it its mission to help Filipino farmers progress and prosper in the products they provide. Their world-class agri-solution cloud-based app, ‘Kubota Intelligence Solutions (KiS),’ leads the way. This mobile app allows farmers to monitor the performance of their machine units, perform location tracking, battery monitoring, setting machine parameters, and theft detection—all from the convenience of their phone.
Erika Ligot, Digital Marketing Supervisor of Kubota Philippines Inc., notes, “At first, people just view it as simply reducing the need for manpower, but it greatly impacts the work efficiency and productivity cost and income of the farmers. Connectivity in the agricultural industry plays a vital role in modernizing agriculture as it fosters transformation in mechanizing the farming practices of the Filipino farmers.”
Looking ahead, Kubota Philippines is poised to play a crucial role in shaping the future of Philippine agriculture. The company’s commitment to addressing the challenges of climate change and food security is evident in its continuous efforts to contribute to agricultural development through technologically advanced products and excellent customer service.
Kubota Philippines Inc., driven by its unwavering dedication to supporting Filipino farmers, has positioned itself as the Philippines’ consistent agriculture provider for farmers. By continuing to provide state-of-the-art solutions and empowering local farmers, Kubota Philippines Inc. is not just selling machinery; it’s sowing seeds for a more prosperous and sustainable agricultural future in the Philippines.
