Vinícola Guaspari, located in Espírito Santo do Pinhal, São Paulo, is a shining example of agricultural innovation, transforming an old coffee farm into a dynamic estate known for producing exceptional wines, olives, and coffee. Established in 2006, the winery has adopted a distinctive method of winter grape harvesting, known as double pruning, to mirror the conditions of the world’s leading wine regions.
By vinifying each vineyard plot separately and selecting only the finest hand-picked grapes, Guaspari has successfully elevated Brazil’s presence in the global wine market. However, as the winery expanded, the growing complexity of managing multiple plots highlighted the need for a more efficient, technology-driven solution.
This is where AGRIVI Farm Management Software (FMS) became a game-changer, enabling Guaspari to streamline operations, optimize decision-making, and further enhance its reputation for quality and innovation.

Managing Complexity Without Real-Time Insights
As Vinícola Guaspari grew, the lack of integrated digital tools became a significant roadblock, hampering both productivity and decision-making. Without real-time data access, the winery struggled to make informed decisions quickly, especially when managing essential tasks such as irrigation, fertilization, and pest control. This reactive approach, reliant on historical data rather than up-to-the-minute information, led to missed opportunities for optimization—ultimately impacting both yield and product quality.
“The biggest challenge for us is to have a management tool that goes beyond traceability and helps us make faster and more accurate decisions,” said Aline Coquieri, Agricultural Research Supervisor at Vinícola Guaspari. “AGRIVI offers intelligent data management with alerts and risk notifications, satellite image monitoring, and cost indicators through detailed harvest planning. This is why we chose AGRIVI FMS—to unite the traceability of our agricultural areas with financial routines in one efficient platform.”
Implementing AGRIVI FMS for Optimized Farm Management
Vinícola Guaspari selected AGRIVI Farm Management Software (FMS) to address its operational challenges and bring real-time data insights into the heart of its agricultural processes. The FMS provided a satellite-based mapping system that consolidates all vineyard plots into a single, easy-to-navigate interface. This visual tool allows managers to oversee the entire estate at a glance, ensuring that each plot receives the necessary attention.
The real-time capabilities of AGRIVI FMS were transformative. Guaspari’s management team can now monitor each plot’s progress, track work performed, and ensure that all areas are properly maintained, from irrigation to pest control. The software’s integration into daily operations also improved decision-making speed and accuracy, enhancing productivity while reducing operational bottlenecks.
The smooth transition to AGRIVI FMS was made possible through close collaboration with AGRIVI’s implementation team. Guaspari’s staff quickly adapted to the new system, thanks to comprehensive training and ongoing support. “Our implementation experience has been very good and fruitful,” Coquieri remarked. “There were no major challenges, as the AGRIVI team supported us fully. We are especially satisfied with the training, and we’re learning how to better manage our data. Our expectations have been exceeded, thanks to AGRIVI’s dynamic and interactive approach to monitoring, resource management, and harvest planning.”
A Strategic Partnership for Innovation and Growth
Vinícola Guaspari’s successful integration of AGRIVI FMS marks a significant milestone in its pursuit of operational excellence. With AGRIVI, the winery has already begun overcoming key challenges like fragmented plot management and the absence of real-time data. Over time, as more data is collected and analyzed through AGRIVI’s system, Guaspari will unlock even deeper insights into vineyard performance. These insights will enable the winery to fine-tune its processes, enhancing product consistency and potentially boosting yields.
By integrating AGRIVI Farm Management Software into its operations, Vinícola Guaspari is laying the groundwork for a future of sustained growth and innovation. The winery’s blend of traditional farming practices with cutting-edge technology highlights its commitment to quality and operational efficiency. As Guaspari continues to leverage the full capabilities of AGRIVI FMS, it stands poised to further elevate its status as a leader in Brazil’s wine industry.
AGRIVI’s FMS not only helps Guaspari manage its diverse agricultural operations more effectively but also enables the winery to plan for the future with greater confidence, ensuring long-term success in a competitive global market.
