Field monitoring and forecasts
Precise field information, successful activity planning
With NEXT Farming, you're relying on location-specific weather data recording and documentation for your fields, incl. forecasts, plant growth and pest infestation monitoring, as well as monitoring for your irrigation equipment. Your fields are exposed to a multitude of external factors, including rain, ground moisture, frost and pests. Deploying weather stations, to obtain precise weather data, as well as other field monitoring tools enables you to gather and make use of all the essential information. This enables you to obtain intelligent forecast models, which you can then use to manage your farming activities in a more targeted way and further optimise your routines. Because knowledge is your most important tool.
