KaruCanne: IPEOS digitises the sugarcane sector in Guadeloupe

Laurent Vergerolle — 2026-06-23T21:55:52Z

The digital transformation of Guadeloupe's sugarcane sector takes a concrete step forward. For the IguaCanne interprofession, the IPEOS teams have built KaruCanne, a business platform that aggregates the sector's data and delivers it, in real time, to every grower.

Guadeloupe la 1ère report on KaruCanne…

Guadeloupe la 1ère

A historic sector moves to a business platform

Officially unveiled on 29 May 2026, KaruCanne is the digital portal of Guadeloupe's sugarcane industry. Born from a tender issued by the DEETS Guadeloupe and led by the IguaCanne interprofession, the project has a clear goal: make the sector more transparent and give every grower direct, real-time access to the data that concerns them.

Behind the tool lie several months of engineering led by the IPEOS I-Solutions teams, working closely with the millers, the SICAs and all the sector's stakeholders.

Consolidated, historised campaign data

KaruCanne centralises the information growers need: sector news, subsidies, delivery data, sucrose richness, tonnages and campaign history. For the 2026 campaign alone, the platform already tracks 991 active growers and more than 261,000 tonnes of cane delivered to the sugar mills, with ten campaigns of historical depth.

The challenge is not only technical, it is also human: in a sector where the average grower's age is close to fifty, the dashboard was designed to remain simple, legible and usable in the field.

An API-centric architecture

KaruCanne's reliability rests on its architecture. The platform relies on APIs that automate data exchanges with the systems of the sector's various stakeholders. It is built on the IPEOS I-Administration application core, with a PostgreSQL database and development in Python via the Django REST framework. The result: data updated automatically, traceable and exportable, rather than files re-keyed by hand.

This is precisely IPEOS's core business: turning a complex business challenge into a robust, automated and durable digital platform.

Custom business platforms

A digitization, automation or data valorization project?

From raw data to the application that changes daily operations

KaruCanne illustrates IPEOS's ability to design custom business applications and platforms, from needs analysis to production: data valorization and automation, API interoperability, accessible interfaces and user support.

KaruCanne: building a custom business platform in Guadeloupe

Laurent Vergerolle — 2026-06-23T21:55:48Z

Giving every grower simple, reliable access to their campaign data: that was the challenge the IguaCanne interprofession entrusted to IPEOS. A look back at the development of a custom business application in Guadeloupe, combining APIs, data valorisation and user support.

The context: a sector to structure around data

Sugarcane is Guadeloupe's leading agricultural sector. To secure its future, the IguaCanne interprofession wanted to strengthen transparency and trust between growers, millers and SICAs. As part of a tender issued by the DEETS Guadeloupe, IPEOS was selected to design a reference digital portal: KaruCanne.

The technical challenge

Three constraints shaped the project:

Scattered data across several stakeholders (millers, SICAs, interprofession), in heterogeneous formats.
Real-time delivery of reliable indicators: tonnages, sucrose richness, subsidies, with ten campaigns of history.
An accessible interface for users with little digital familiarity, usable from the field.

The solution: an API-driven business platform

IPEOS

IPEOS developed KaruCanne, a custom business application. The architecture rests on three principles:

Automated API ingestion — programmable interfaces dialogue with the systems of the millers and the sector's stakeholders to collect delivery data without re-keying, and guarantee its freshness.
IPEOS I-Administration application core — the platform is built on the IPEOS I-Administration framework, ensuring code control, security and long-term maintainability.
Restitution and export — a web dashboard consolidates the current campaign and the ten-year trend; the data is exportable for the sector's steering needs.

This choice of an open architecture, centred on interoperability, is what distinguishes a business platform from a static tool: it can evolve, interconnect and absorb new flows campaign after campaign.

« [...] on travaille avec des outils très innovants, avec ce qu'on appelle des API [...] » [We work with highly innovative tools, with what are called APIs.]
