Access to timely plant health data is key to detecting early signs of crop stress.
Ensuring the health of your plants is paramount in protected environments. Over a growing cycle, plants can be exposed to various factors that induce stress. Managing the resulting effects helps keep plant development on target and meet production goals. However, for low-tech or mid-tech growers, it’s often difficult to monitor plant health, the exact level of stress experienced, and the degree to which that is affecting production quality and quantity.
Our advanced digital agronomy solutions enable real-time plant health monitoring, ensuring your crops thrive. FarmRoad, our crop management software, gives you comprehensive visualization and analysis of your microclimates and plant health status and allows you to detect early signs of stress and environmental variation at a farm, compartment and sector level. Manage your crop risk in a timely fashion, optimize your resources and inputs, and ensure your commercial success.
Plant stress and varying environmental conditions prevent consistency in production quantity and quality. Having a clear picture of your plant health is key to ensure your commercial success. Take timely actions to adjust your growing environment, decide when and where to use your resources and inputs, or make investment decisions.
Stressed plants reduce production capacity and have long-term consequences. Measure and compare climate and agronomy data to find relationships, for example, between plant temperature and ambient temperature - so you can improve production quality.
Visualize key agronomy data trends and insights across all your sites. Understanding light patterns helps you identify peak growth periods and optimize resources, such as staffing for picking. For crop protection, this also helps you choose the most effective time to spray.
Digital agronomy is useful to support investment planning and budgeting decisions. Fine-tune the timing of whitewash application or removal based on air temperature, inside radiation, and plant temperature data to reduce plant stress and improve fruit size.
FarmRoad delivers the insights you need. Harness plant science and AI models for high-value crops developed by our in-house agronomy experts and data scientists.
Automatically capture and visualize temperature, relative humidity, CO2, PAR, RAD, EC and barometric pressure readings, as well as plant temperature or soil moisture thanks to FarmRoad’s wireless sensor network. Efficient and consistent plant health monitoring provides the information you need to improve crop yield.
Complete crop registration in half the time and easily log pest and disease threats by entering data directly into FarmRoad. This eliminates double handling and ensures your workforce spends more time on the farm. Take prompt action to manage pests, nutrient deficiencies and risks of disease by allocating resources and inputs where needed.
Widely communicate observations, photos and actions in FarmRoad’s activity feed. Get a centralized, custom visualization of all your digital agronomy data, on desktop and mobile, in our data studio. Set up custom alerts by email, SMS or WhatsApp to identify risks of disease or problematic microclimates as they happen.
