I used to track the farm from memory and an Excel file nobody updated. Now I open the dashboard and know the area, the yield and the cost without asking anyone.
This project started inside a farm, not an office. The observation was simple: everyone on the farm knows what happened today, and nobody knows what it cost or whether the farm actually made money.
The available tools were Excel, a notebook and a chat group. Each one works, but none of them talk to the others. Expenses live in one file, inventory in another, attendance in a third — which means decisions get made on feelings rather than numbers.
Hasad was born to close that gap. We brought together what was scattered: farms, crops, operations, workforce, inventory and money. And the decision we wanted most for ourselves: that the system should work the way a farmer thinks, rather than asking the farmer to work the way the software thinks.
We chose to make the interface Arabic first, to work in the field where there is no signal, and to have every cost and profit figure come from data actually recorded by people on the ground — not typed into a pretty-looking spreadsheet.
