The story of Protura


While designing my own regenerative farming project, I realised that there was no single platform that could be used to design and manage the project. Many projects use a variety of different software tools, but none could provide the comprehensive support I needed. Instead of relying on a design tool that was unfamiliar with the plants I was growing, or putting all my data into an spreadsheet that quickly becomes a mess, I decided to create my own platform.

Protura connects users to an extensive database with over 500 plant species and their cultivars, and allows them to create detailed designs using map-based design tool. Users can access and select the best plants for their specific needs and get a peek of what their project could look like in the future.

Once the planting phase of your project is complete, the Protura platform takes care of the management processes. It includes a calendar and task list to help you keep track of what needs to be done and by whom. You can also store information about harvests and sales to get keep track of the progress of your project and identify areas for improvement.

The aim of Protura is to help you to become a better regenerative farmer by enabling you to achieve greater yields and resilience. Scroll down for a overview of the features that Protura offers.
