Digital agronomy data, together with climate insights and forecasted water demand, are key factors to making informed irrigation and fertigation decisions.
Irrigation is crucial for enhancing crop quality and yield, but growers encounter daily challenges such as unreliable water supply, extreme weather, high operational costs, inconsistent data, and labor-intensive processes. Precision irrigation and fertigation demands a considerable amount of time and attention from growers. The lack of detailed insights into microclimate and weather data makes it difficult to make timely, informed decisions.
We offer comprehensive irrigation insights through our integrated FarmRoad crop management software, eliminating the need for spreadsheets by unifying your farm data in one place. By providing real-time access to insights and the ability to analyze trends using climate and water demand forecasts, our software allows you to make more informed daily irrigation decisions. Additionally, by integrating microclimate and plant health data, the software enables you to identify early signs of stress and environmental variations across your farms. By harnessing advanced technology, you can achieve your optimal crop growth, water efficiency and resource management goals.
Access and visualize key agronomy data trends and insights across all your sites and irrigation stations. Streamline drip and drain monitoring to get an accurate and timely view of EC, pH and drainage percentage across each farm, enabling better informed decisions that reduce costs and lead to greater sustainability.
Reduce costs, improve operational efficiency, and profitability. Achieve optimal yields by using exactly what your crops need in terms of water and fertilizer. Leverage agronomy insights, climate and water forecasts to enhance daily irrigation decisions.
Make timely decisions by utilizing the right level of resources and inputs at the right time. Prevent plant stress and manage varying environmental conditions to maintain consistency in production. Gain a clear picture of your growing conditions.
Anticipate risks from weather events, dew formation, and pest or disease outbreaks. Take proactive actions and avoid crop losses. Receive real-time alerts for adverse climate conditions via email, SMS, or WhatsApp.
FarmRoad delivers the irrigation insights you need. Harness plant science and AI models developed by our in-house agronomy experts and data scientists.
Capture drip and drain data directly on your devices using our mobile app for faster irrigation feedback, enabling timely and accurate decisions. Easily combine, analyze, and export these measurements with the comprehensive climate and agronomy data in FarmRoad. Improve data consistency, reduce water waste, and enhance your crop health through irrigation insights.
The outside climate forecasts in FarmRoad utilize low-orbit satellites and radio occultation data to provide weather predictions with greater accuracy than generic weather apps. The 7-day forecast empowers growers to plan irrigation strategies, anticipate conditions, and implement climate-resilient practices, enabling proactive decisions that optimize water use and ensure crop health.
The inside climate prediction feature provides AI-driven forecasts for crops in protected environments, and reflects the unique conditions inside the greenhouse or tunnel. These hyper-local forecasts utilize FarmRoad’s climate sensors and AI models so that growers can make real-time decisions on water and fertilizer use, crop health and pest and disease control. Paired with outside forecasts, these predictions provide a comprehensive view for precise crop management.
