Efficiency, control and profitability for the agri-food industry

We work closely with cooperatives, producers and processing plants to digitalise their operations end to end. We design solutions that optimise the supply chain, ensure food traceability, automate key processes and improve your business profitability.

Plant Automation and Management (WMS/MES)

We optimise plant operations through industrial process automation. We implement manufacturing execution systems (MES) and warehouse management systems (WMS) to monitor packaging lines in real time, reducing waste and bottlenecks.

Computer Vision and Automated Quality Control

We automate real-time food inspection. Using advanced computer vision and AI systems, we classify your products on processing lines by size, colour, maturity or imperfections, guaranteeing consistent quality standards.

IoT Sensorisation and Precision Agriculture

We connect the field with decision-making. We develop and implement IoT sensor networks to monitor crops in real time: soil moisture, climate variables and water consumption, optimising resources and improving agricultural performance.

End-to-End Traceability "From Farm to Table"

Guarantee food safety and consumer trust. We design digital traceability systems that immutably record every phase (origin, processing, logistics), facilitating compliance with European and global health regulations.

Predictive Analytics for Crops and Demand

Anticipate crop and market behaviour. We apply Big Data and Artificial Intelligence models to predict crop volumes based on climate, plan plant production and optimise stock to avoid food waste.

Smart Logistics and Cold Chain Control

We optimise the transport and distribution of perishable products. We develop logistics software that monitors delivery routes and performs automated cold chain control, alerting temperature deviations before they affect the product.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs) about technology and digitalisation in the agri-food sector

We answer the most common questions about agri-food digitalisation, farm-to-fork traceability, precision agriculture, IoT, computer vision for quality control, SCADA/MES and the cold chain for cooperatives, producers and food industries in Tarragona, Catalonia and across Spain.

What technology services does Macaque Consulting offer for the agri-food sector?

We develop custom technology solutions for cooperatives, producers and food industries that optimise production processes, ensure full product traceability and improve the operational performance of the business. We work on plant automation with SCADA and MES, computer vision for quality control, IoT sensorisation and precision agriculture, end-to-end farm-to-fork traceability, predictive analytics for harvests and demand, and smart logistics with cold chain control. We serve clients in Tarragona and across Spain.

How is a farm-to-fork food traceability system implemented?

An end-to-end traceability system records every stage of the product: origin, plot or supplier, treatments, reception, processing, batches, packaging, storage and distribution. We integrate it with the ERP, plant systems and logistics, and use batch codes, smart labelling and automatic reading to eliminate manual records. This way you comply with food safety regulations and the requirements of certifications such as IFS or BRC, and in the event of an alert you can locate and withdraw the affected batch in minutes.

What is precision agriculture and what benefits does it bring?

Precision agriculture uses IoT sensors, weather stations, satellite or drone imagery and data analytics to manage each plot according to its real needs. It makes it possible to adjust irrigation, fertilisation and treatments locally, detect pests and water stress early and forecast crop yields. The result is more production with less water, fewer inputs and less environmental impact.

How does computer vision improve quality control in the food industry?

Computer vision systems inspect the product on the production line at high speed: they detect defects, foreign bodies, packaging and labelling errors, and sort by size, colour or grade. Unlike manual inspection, they check 100% of production with consistent criteria and without fatigue. The industry reduces complaints and returns, cuts waste and guarantees consistent quality in every batch.

What are SCADA and MES and why digitalise a food plant?

A SCADA system monitors and controls the plant's machines and processes in real time: temperatures, pressures, flow rates and equipment status. An MES manages production execution: work orders, raw material consumption, performance, stoppages and quality. Integrated with the ERP, they give full visibility of the factory, make it possible to measure efficiency (OEE), reduce stoppages and waste, and make decisions with real production data.

How is the cold chain controlled and food logistics optimised?

With IoT temperature and humidity sensors in cold rooms, warehouses and refrigerated vehicles, we monitor the cold chain in real time, with automatic alerts for any deviation and a record that guarantees food safety during audits. We combine this with predictive demand analytics and route optimisation to plan production and distribution. Losses and food waste are reduced, and the product arrives in perfect condition.
