POUYAFARM PROJECTS
Pouya Hoseini is the originator of the PouyaFarm concept. With the support and expertise of experienced agricultural specialists, he developed the idea into a practical platform and successfully brought it to implementation. Established under Pouyamehr Biome Company, PouyaFarm delivers advanced agricultural engineering services aimed at improving productivity, reducing production costs, and promoting sustainable farming practices. Through a smart and knowledge-based approach, the platform supports farmers, orchard managers, and greenhouse growers in achieving more efficient and environmentally responsible crop management.

Pouya has experience in the industrial sector in Environmental Management Plans (EMP) and ISO 14001-based environmental management systems.

This study focused on the design and evaluation of an intelligent drip irrigation system for cherry tomato production under different moisture levels and superabsorbent treatments. Conducted in the greenhouse of Shahid Bahonar University of Kerman, the research demonstrated that the system effectively controlled soil moisture and that the application of superabsorbents mitigated water stress effects, improved plant growth, increased yield, and enhanced water use efficiency. The highest yield (40.23 t/ha) and water productivity (10.36 kg/m³) were obtained under full irrigation with superabsorbent application. In addition, the use of superabsorbents significantly reduced water consumption. The study also developed water production functions and evaluated artificial neural network models for greenhouse evapotranspiration estimation, showing that the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) model provided higher prediction accuracy than the Radial Basis Function (RBF) model.
