FarmMind
We know it's been a few weeks since our last update, and there's a good reason for that.
The FarmMind team recently competed in the National Farm Bureau Ag Innovation Challenge, and we won! We're incredibly grateful for this recognition and excited about what it means for the future of FarmMind. If you're interested, you can check out the American Farm Bureau's press release or watch our pitch video from the conference on Youtube.
Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming! We've been hard at work on some major updates to the platform, and have been looking forward to sharing them with you.
As always, if you have questions, feature requests, or just want to chat about anything FarmMind-related, reach out to us at support@farmmind.org.
What was once the Data Visualizer has evolved into the Data Analyzer, your central hub for working with all forms of agricultural data about your fields. This powerful upgrade transforms how you interact with and understand your farm's data.
Layer different data sources on top of each other to derive powerful insights. Pull in satellite imagery to monitor field health over time. Import machinery data from your equipment including yield maps, application rates, and sensor readings. Track trends from your field notes over multiple seasons. Split fields by variety to understand which genetics perform best in specific areas. The Data Analyzer brings all your data together in one place, giving you the tools to make truly data-driven decisions with confidence about every acre you farm.
One of the most powerful features of the Data Analyzer is the ability to create sophisticated variable rate application maps that respond to the specific needs of different zones in your fields. Here's what you can do:
All prescription maps can be exported in industry-standard formats compatible with John Deere, Case IH, AGCO, and other major equipment brands. Load them directly into your equipment's display and start applying with precision.
We are working on producing tutorials for using this, but in the meantime please feel free to reach out with questions. Either email support@farmmind.org or book 30 minutes with our team where we would be happy to go over it with you live.
The Data Analyzer is now home to a complete soil testing workflow that guides you through the entire yearly soil testing cycle. Start by creating custom sampling grids tailored to your field layouts and management zones. Track your samples as they go off to the lab, then easily upload and manage the results when they come back.
