CONUCO · Nassau, The Bahamas
CONUCO brings proven, field-tested technology to The Bahamas — precision agriculture, water resilience, coastal monitoring, and workforce training. From farm soil to coral reefs, we turn what already works into shared local prosperity.
The better off we all are, the better off we all are.
The replication model
Rather than building new technology from the ground up, CONUCO takes capability and field methods already proven elsewhere and adapts each one for the Bahamian setting — island water, soils, coastlines, and the needs of local businesses and communities. The result is a replication map: proven, local, and built for The Bahamas.
Start with a tool that already delivers measurable results — in agriculture, water, research, or automation.
Tune it to local conditions — island water, soils, coastlines, and the realities of Bahamian businesses and communities.
CONUCO leads on the ground in The Bahamas, drawing on the proven methods and foundation of its sister company.
Every deployment is measured by what it raises locally — food, water, coastal health, jobs, and talent.
What we do
CONUCO runs four connected programs — small business, research, the blue economy, and people. Each pairs proven capability with local delivery to move a Bahamian national priority forward.
Helping Bahamian MSMEs adopt proven technology
A technology-adoption cohort: CONUCO and partner small businesses adopt proven technology to grow and operate more efficiently.
Field data and AI for university research
Partner with a university faculty lead on a localized study — drone-collected field data analyzed at scale by AI — producing rigorous findings on a real Bahamian challenge.
Drone survey and water monitoring for the coast
A coastal monitoring pilot using aerial survey and water sensing to build a repeatable record of shoreline and reef-adjacent conditions, with AI synthesizing the data into reports conservation teams can use.
Training the next generation of Bahamian technologists
A Bahamian leadership and workforce academy in technology and sustainable agriculture — hands-on training tied to real pathways, feeding graduates into the small-business, research, and conservation work.
The capability portfolio
Each capability has a track record that transfers cleanly to a Bahamian setting. The same sensing and analytics that protect a crop extend naturally into the coastal zone.
Smart irrigation & soil intelligence
Turns soil, irrigation, and field data into decisions — field-validated for up to 58% water savings and 23% higher yields. For an island where fresh water is scarce, this is foundational.
Aerial survey & environmental mapping
Captures aerial imagery and sensor data for crop health, land use, and environmental survey. The same flights that scan farmland can map mangroves, shorelines, and reef-adjacent zones.
Grounded retrieval & analysis
Agentic retrieval and reasoning that lets researchers and institutions query large bodies of documents and data and get grounded answers fast — the engine behind rigorous research.
Win public-sector work
Helps small businesses find and pursue government work, cutting manual research time by up to 70% so local firms can compete for public contracts on a level field.
Remove manual back-office work
Automates repetitive manual tasks across small-business operations — freeing owners to focus on growth instead of paperwork.
Training tied to real pathways
A proven workforce and education model that has served more than 300 families — hands-on training tied to real career pathways in technology and agriculture.
The blue economy play
The Bahamian maritime environment is unlike anywhere else — and the capability built for precision agriculture, sensing an environment and turning readings into decisions, extends naturally into the coastal zone.
CONUCO's coastal monitoring pilot uses aerial survey and water sensing to build a repeatable record of shoreline and reef-adjacent conditions, with AI synthesizing the data into reports conservation teams can act on. One resilience story, joining land and sea.

Replication roadmap
We start with the fastest path to a first pilot, then build out. Each phase builds proof and broadens reach.
Confirm CONUCO as the Bahamian anchor and deploy one proven capability inside CONUCO as the first reference adoption.
Document results from the CONUCO adoption as a local case study, recruit a first cohort of small businesses, and open a university faculty conversation for a research pilot.
Launch the coastal monitoring pilot, advance a university research collaboration, and stand up the leadership and workforce academy.
Link academy graduates into small-business, research, and conservation work; publish combined results under one Bahamian resilience story; expand into a second cohort and new sites.
Roles & partnership
The Bahamian anchor
An independent, Bahamian-owned enterprise. CONUCO holds local relationships and ground operations, runs the first reference deployment, coordinates field logistics, and recruits the business cohort and academy trainees.
Founder & local lead
Single point of contact for CONUCO's programs and partners — leading community recruitment, field-logistics coordination, and relationships across government, universities, and conservation partners.
Meet our founder →Sister company & foundation
An established agri-technology and AI firm — and CONUCO's sister company, not its parent. Avid gives CONUCO a strong technical foundation from day one: proven platforms, field methods, training, and operating playbooks that CONUCO adapts for The Bahamas.
