MatruOS for a vegetable seedling nursery
Set up the way a vegetable seedling nursery runs: seedling sale per plant (nursery's own seed), raising charge per plant when the farmer brings seed, grafted seedlings at a premium, small sales of trays and inputs. Routines, workflows, registers, licences and an AI team that knows the work are ready when you sign up.

What this solves
What a vegetable seedling nursery deals with today, and what MatruOS sets up for it
Today
Bookings taken on the phone and in a notebook, so sowing dates are missed and farmers arrive before the seedlings are ready. Farmer blames the nursery for a failed crop and there is no record of seed lot and germination.
In MatruOS
MatruOS sets up 9 routines, 1 workflow, 3 registers and 4 licences for a vegetable seedling nursery, with an AI team that reads your own records and prepares the work.
What changes
The right person is reminded at the right time, approvals wait for whoever decides, and every licence has a renewal reminder. Anything that sends, pays, signs, files or deletes waits for a person's approval.
Where you sit
MatruOS starts from how your business earns
Who you sell to, who you buy from, how credit moves and where you sit in the chain decide how your screens, reminders and reports are set up.

- vegetable grower

Your suppliers
- Seed companies and seed dealers
- Cocopeat suppliers
- Tray and shade-net dealers
- Agri-input shop (fungicide, water-soluble fertiliser)
Credit and cash
Farmer pays about a third as advance at booking and the balance at lifting; regular big buyers and FPOs get 15-30 days; cocopeat and trays bought cash or 15 days; seed company gives 30-60 days to a nursery that also sells seed
Cocopeat, trays and seed are paid 3-5 weeks before the seedlings are sold; cash comes in at lifting; the June-August and October-December peaks bring 60-70% of the year's sales; unsold seedlings past 40 days are a write-off

Drafts lifting-date messages to farmers whose seedlings are ready in 4 days, balance and tray reminders, and pre-season booking messages to last season's farmers
Asks you before sending
