When the React library was introduced into the community some years back, it was accepted and soon gained lots of popularity as the choice for building out user interfaces in a composable way. The major idea was that each UI interface can be split into multiple different small components and at the end of the day, these components can be combined or composed to form the whole larger UI as intended.

class App extends React.Component { 
render() { 
return ( 
      <ColorContext.Provider value="white"> 
      <SampleComponent /> 
      </ColorContext.Provider> 
    ); 
  } 
} 

As a background to what we are trying to present, if we were building multiple UI components for example, we indeed have a component tree which includes the parent component, which becomes the source of truth for our data, and due to the interrelation dependence on the parent components and those underneath it known as the children or descendant descendant descendant descendant descendant component to share data, it comes a point where this becomes an issue.

As we stated earlier, for small to medium apps, sharing data across many different components could be easy, since all we need to do is pass this data or props across or down from the parent to every child that needs it. Now this is fine. What if we have a hugely nested or a large component tree and we intend to pass the data or prop down this tree?

React context, a core React API provides an easier interface for developers to share data or pass props down multiple levels deep in our React applications. From the React docs, with react context, we can easily pass data down to the very component that needs it at any level in the component tree, without having to explicitly pass this data down each component level in the tree. This is all there is to React context.

To drive this definition further for more clarity, say you have a particular theme color set at the parent component level of the app, and you only intend to pass it down to the thirtieth component down the tree, without having to pass it down every level until you get to that thirtieth level, but just pass it down to only the thirtiet

The Situation

After beginning its operations in October 2021, Green Farmers introduced a cannabis compliance software system to oversee its operations from compliance to inventory. However, deficiencies soon became apparent.

Matthew Turner, CFO of Green Farmers, states, "While the software met basic compliance needs, it failed in broader applications. As a B2B entity, we manage a diverse set of client requirements, ranging from different drying methods to handling multiple cannabis strains simultaneously."

"Our previous system struggled to track our operations pre-harvest, let alone post-harvest when it gets extremely complex. We had significant delays in paperwork, meaning we had to bring in external administrative hires just for data entry. Access to any kind of real-time information was impossible meaning we didn’t have a clear view of what was happening at the facility at any given time.”

Matthew emphasizes, "We were struggling - and the need for a more competent system was very evident."

The Solution

Matthew shares, "We were drawn to Elevated Signals due to its strong reputation in the cannabis industry and its adaptability. It not only supports our current processes but also aids in managing our growing complexity as we expand."

Elevated Signals' manufacturing software revolutionizes inventory, quality, and compliance management, enhancing cannabis production. By providing real-time operations data, it boosts productivity and profitability.

In October 2022, Green Farmers smoothly implemented Elevated Signals. "The team made the transition seamless," says Matthew.

"The software facilitates complex workflows tailored to each of our customers, as a result, all paperwork is completed instantly, we’re no longer drowning in admin tasks and we have transparent facility insights.”

Owing to optimized processes, Green Farmers' Victoria facility now produces sought-after premium products for its B2B clientele across Australia. Given that its products are pre-sold till the end of 2024, its new greenhouse in New South Wales is soon to enter production to help meet demand.

Matthew concludes, "With Australia's rising demand for premium medical cannabis products, our rapid growth relies heavily on efficient operational systems. Elevated Signals has significantly streamlined our operations, from inventory management to quality assurance. Naturally, we incorporated it into our second facility."
