Manage Every Farm.
Track Every Harvest.
Stop Disease Early.

Peladang is built for all tropical crop types common in Malaysia and Indonesia — padi, chili, vegetables, oil palm, rubber, durian, and more. Whether you manage a 2-acre smallholding or a 50-acre commercial operation, the platform adapts to your scale. You can create separate plots for each crop variety and track them independently through planting, growth, and harvest. The disease alert engine covers the most common regional threats including Rice Blast, Chili Anthracnose, and Sheath Blight. Farmers from Cameron Highlands vegetable operations to Pahang chili farms actively use Peladang. The weather forecast and field scouting tools are crop-agnostic, so they work equally well for fruit orchards, paddy lots, or mixed smallholdings. You are not locked into one crop type per account. New disease models are added regularly as our research coverage expands across more crops and regions.

Our disease risk engine monitors 7 high-risk diseases: Rice Blast, Sheath Blight, Chili Anthracnose, Aphid Infestation, Powdery Mildew, Leaf Curl Virus, and Leaf Folder. It works by combining your field scouting records with live 14-day weather forecast data to calculate a risk score for each disease. When weather conditions align with known outbreak patterns, you receive an alert before the disease spreads. Early warnings typically give you a 3-to-7-day window to apply preventive measures — significantly reducing crop losses compared to reactive treatment after symptoms appear. Risk scores are recalculated daily as new weather data arrives. You can also log disease sightings manually from the field, which feeds back into the risk model and helps other farmers in the same region through the anonymized national network. Alert thresholds are calibrated for Malaysian tropical conditions, not temperate-climate assumptions.

Not at all. Peladang is designed for farmers first, not tech professionals. If you can use WhatsApp, you can use Peladang. Setup takes under 30 seconds — enter your name, email, and farm details and you are ready. The entire interface is available in Bahasa Melayu, Bahasa Indonesia, Chinese, and English, written in plain everyday language with no jargon. Built for mobile — the same smartphone you already carry to the field. Our support team responds within one business day for any questions. There is no manual to read and no training required. Most farmers complete their first field scouting log within 5 minutes of signing up. Guided prompts walk you through each step, and you can start with just one plot and expand as your confidence grows. If you ever get stuck, the in-app help and email support are both free.

Your farm data is encrypted in transit and at rest, stored securely on reputable cloud infrastructure based in the region, and never sold to third parties. You own your data — Peladang never shares individual farm records with government agencies, fertilizer companies, or research institutions without your consent. We use only anonymized aggregated data to generate national benchmarks. You can export your full data at any time in a readable format, or request permanent deletion. Our practices comply with Malaysia's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). Access is controlled by login credentials and role-based permissions. We conduct regular security reviews and do not share individual farm activity, yields, or financial records with any outside party under any circumstances. Your privacy is a non-negotiable part of the Peladang model — protecting it costs us nothing and means everything to our farmers.

Yes. Peladang is fully web-based and runs directly in any smartphone browser — Chrome, Safari, or Firefox — with no app download or installation needed. Malaysian farmers typically use it on Android phones through Chrome, but it works equally well on iPhone. The interface is optimized for small screens with a mobile-first design. You can record field scouting observations, check disease alerts, view 14-day weather forecasts, and manage your team entirely through your phone's browser. No storage space is consumed on your device. Just open peladang.tech, log in, and start. Adding it to your home screen takes one tap and gives you an app-like experience without visiting any app store. This means updates reach you instantly without requiring you to update anything. Low-bandwidth connections common in rural areas are handled gracefully by the lightweight interface.

Yes. Peladang includes a built-in expense and revenue tracking module designed for Malaysian smallholder farms. Log costs by category — seeds, fertilizer, pesticides, hired labour — and assign them to individual plots or crop cycles. At harvest, record your revenue to calculate actual profit per cycle and per acre. The platform shows your cost-per-kg and compares your margins against anonymized benchmarks from other Peladang farms nationwide. This gives a clear picture of which crops and plots generate real returns. No accounting knowledge required. Reports can be filtered by date range or plot so you can compare seasons or identify which block of land is underperforming. All financial data stays private and is never shared with banks, government bodies, or any third party. The expense ledger also makes it straightforward to prepare documentation for government scheme applications or subsidy audits.
