IN-FIELD SERVICES

Identify underperforming blocks in your farm operations.

FarmX monitoring solutions offer higher resolution information at a lower cost than others on the market today.

Identify anomalies:

We show crop health issues 1-2 weeks ahead of when you’d see them in the field. So you have time to respond before impacting your bottom line. 

• Watch your crop’s health change through the growing season
• Compare across fields
• See crop health issues, plant vigor, over/under irrigation, irrigation uniformity, leaks and clogs, grape cluster density, pest and disease

You can clearly see problems in your fields, make decisions and take action.

View problem areas delineated on images of your fields:

• See the change over time
• Show your staff where to go and what to do
• Track their work

We offer three levels of information:

• At a sub block level
• High resolution down to inches
• Ultra high resolution down to millimeters

Save $20-$35 per hour in labor and equipment costs spent on staff driving ATVs by using FarmX crop threat monitoring.

Monitor plant parameters remotely from root tip to leaf tip. 

Proprietary sensors from FarmX combined with commercially available sensors let us monitor factors such as:

• leaf temperature
• stem contraction
• daily growth
• water uptake
• and more

You'll know your crop water stress level, soil moisture deficit and other factors. 

FarmX developed an innovative soil moisture probe, the Osmo, that measures up to 4ft in diameter, 200x that of its closest competitor. We provide you a more complete view of what your roots are experiencing.

We also deploy IR, RH, temperature sensors, and dendrometers to provide the most complete picture of your plants’ health.

You'll see on your smartphone recommendations as to what action to take. And you can drill down on graphs to understand the why.

SGMA is coming. Water will be harder to access. 

We provide water usage reporting:

• For each irrigation event
• Flow rate
• Historic water usage 

We provide online and downloadable reports so you can share with your team and provide to regulatory agencies.

It’s secure and safe. Only you can see and access your water usage.

We fly your fields looking for problems that you want identified. Our scouting service gives you a customized view of your field at ultra high resolution. 

We’ve flown and found leaks and clogs, signs of pests and disease, grape cluster density, frost damage, red blotch, and more. We can find problems down to the millimeter level – letting you see the bugs, broken emitters, damage, and discolored foliage. 

Best of all, we then recommend where to look. We analyze the imagery for you. 

Growers can save the $20-$35 per hour in labor and ATV costs with our scouting service.

We offer simple, powerful tools to remotely control your irrigation infrastructure. 

Get the hardware and software to irrigate, not just recommendations. 

• Irrigation schedules based on your preferences
• Configurable to the season and different irrigation approaches such as deficit irrigation
• Run short set irrigation without the labor cost

We enable you to maximize your control:

• Valve operation tied to your irrigation schedule
• Flow rate monitoring including historic data. Suitable for regulatory requirements
• Real-time pressure monitoring. Receive alerts when pressure is out of range
• Automatic, remote pump start and stop. VFD integration to regulate RPM, flow and pressure to your needs
• Get notifications and alerts when equipment operates and when problems arise.

We offer the hardware and software to monitor and control:

Valves

• Pumps via VFDs and soft starters
• Flow meters
• Pressure sensors
• Tanks and reservoir levels

Save driving to that distant pump. Know when and for how long your staff really irrigated. Get the convenience and labor savings of remote control. We enable short sets to use the least water to keep your plants thriving.

Maximize the ROI from your assets. Get more out of your trees and water more appropriately your grape varietals. Now you can respond to varying water needs of your crop or differences in soil types across your land. 

Using our imagery and working with our agronomists:

• Divide your drip lines into any number of segments with our micro-valves to optimize your plant growth. 
• Micro valves splice your drip lines or plug into your drip risers
• Irrigate down to a ¼ acre or less. 
• Schedule each micro-valve separately
• No need to change existing valves or pumps

Unlock more profitability from your field.

With high chemical prices and lack of skilled labor, fertigation control is even more important today.

FarmX provides simple, effective fertigation control so you can manage your investment in your crops. 

You can:

• Schedule your fertigation pumps and valves to run and provide nutrients and chemicals per your PCA’s prescription
• Inject based on combinations of flow, pressure, timing and location
• Control acid injection
• Receive alerts when problems arise
• View reporting on how much you are using and spending.

Customize your fertigation system today. FarmX customizes its offering to work with your existing fertigation system.

There’s a proven alternative to ground spraying and crop dusters – drone spraying. 

Drone spraying offers a host of benefits:  

• More precise spraying. Fly within 10" - 12" of canopy
• Spray less. Can spray as low as 0.5 gpa reducing chemical usage and cost
• Apply where other methods are challenged:  in steep terrain, with limited head space, and in small fields
• Reduce overspray compared to ground and aerial spray
• Dramatically save on  water such when applying at 50-100 gpa.
• Reduce groundwater contamination
• Limit exposure to applicator. No risk to pilot. Not so with crop dusters.
• Unaffected by terrain uneveness, slope 
• Best of all, reduce the possibilities of complaints from neighbors

FarmX provides:

• Spray  as low as 5 gpa.
• Drone-based full field spraying
• Spray in uneven terrain and near powerlines and obstructions
• Targeted spraying 
• Spraying of pesticides, beneficials, biologic control
• Field mapping 

No sticky fingers, driving to the lab, clipboards and pencils.

The FarmX Fruit Quality service provides:

• Non-destructive and instantaneous reading of Brix, pH and total acidity
• Measurements in less than 2 seconds
• Readings for many crops, including grapes, tomatoes, melons, stone fruit, citrus

We offer the Fruit Analyzer and mobile app. You get complete information capture:

• Records every measurement
• Provides cluster, bin, and field averages
• Tracks the GPS location of every measurement (when GPS available)

For use in:

• Vineyards and fields
• Processing plants
