The Alert That Changes How You Manage Margins

This is the core of what Agri Margin Watch does.

Margin Alert — Paddy Processing

“Your paddy procurement cost is up 8% this week. Finished goods margin is now 12% vs your 18% target.”

Previous margin

18%

Current margin

12%

·

Your target

18%

This alert fires automatically when commodity prices shift your margin below your target. You know immediately — not at month-end when it’s too late to act.

Built for Agro-Processing Manufacturers

Where commodity price volatility is the biggest variable in your margin equation.

🌾

Rice Mills

Paddy price swings directly compress husking margins. A 10% paddy cost spike can wipe out monthly profitability if you're not watching.

🫘

Dal Processors

Chana, tur, moong — procurement prices are volatile. Your selling price is fixed by market, but your cost isn't.

🌶

Spice Manufacturers

Turmeric, chilli, coriander prices can move 20–30% in a single month. BOM costs become outdated overnight.

🥜

Groundnut / Oilseed Processors

Groundnut and tamarind prices follow seasonal and weather cycles. Margin Watch tracks the patterns so you can plan procurement.

What You Get

Five capabilities that keep your margin visible, not just your costs.

Real-Time Commodity Price Tracking

Groundnut, paddy, dal varieties, tamarind, turmeric, onion, tomato — Hosur-belt markets and pan-India coverage.

Margin Impact Alerts

When procurement cost crosses your alert threshold, you get a notification immediately — before the month closes.

7-Day ML Price Forecasts

Prophet model trained on 33,000+ historical price records. Forecasts help you decide when to buy forward.

Production Cost Recalculation

When commodity prices shift, Margin Watch recalculates your FactoStack BOM costs automatically. No manual updates.

Alert History & Pattern View

See every alert that fired, what the price was, what the margin impact was, and how long the pressure lasted.

How It Works

Three steps from BOM to margin alert — automated.

01

FactoStack Knows Your BOM Costs

Your production BOM in FactoStack already lists raw material quantities and costs per unit of finished goods.

02

We Track Commodity Prices Daily

Margin Watch pulls prices from 564 markets across India daily. Your key commodities are mapped to your BOM ingredients.

03

You're Alerted When Margin Drops Below Target

Set your margin target. When commodity price movements push your calculated margin below that threshold, you're notified instantly.
