Revolutionizing Crop Health Monitoring: Farmonaut Introduces EVI for Enhanced Precision Farming

Farmonaut has been at the forefront of providing satellite based crop health monitoring services to farmers. We keep upon adding useful features for farmers to make their farming practices much accurate. Today, we have integrated EVI results into our system which can be accessed through our android app.
Even though NDVI results are pretty accurate in estimating crop health status of a field, there are still a few shortcomings (atmospheric and ground level) which can influence the field results.
The Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) uses additional wavelengths of light to correct for the inaccuracies of NDVI. Variations in solar incidence angle, atmospheric conditions like distortions in the reflected light caused by the particles in the air, and signals from the ground cover below the vegetation are corrected for using EVI.
Select your field for satellite monitoring on the app and start receiving EVI results with the satellite data as well!

Unlocking Field Potential: Decoding NDWI for Smart Irrigation and Crop Health

PrecisionAg101 Post #2 : These posts are meant to make farmers aware of the basics of precision agriculture and how to interpret various satellite data provided by us.

The field image attached below is of the farmer Gullapalli Sujatha (Viswamatha farms, Andhra Pradesh, one of the pioneers in Natural Farming in India), (Field Area: 26 Hectares). The image displayed on the map is NDWI (Normalized Difference Water Index) captured by the satellite. NDWI images are used to quantify water stress in the vegetation in a field. NDWI index can help us control irrigation, significantly improving agriculture, especially in areas where meeting the need for water is difficult. The colors used to quantify this information is very easy to interpret.

Dark Green/ Green: water stress is good
Yellow: irrigation may need attention
Red: Barren land/ no vegetation

In the posted image, as we can see, the top portion of the field shows pretty good water stress in the vegetation, whereas the remaining field is in the yellowish or red region. This indicates that the farmer needs to pay attention to irrigation in these highlighted regions. To cross-verify these results farmers can simply open GPS on their smartphones and can navigate through the field using this image.

By using satellite data provided by us, farmers can:
1. Reduce Chemical/Fertilizer consumption by applying them only in the locations where crop
health is not good.
2. Reduce Labour costs by directing the labours only in those field areas where crop health is
critical.
3. Reduce irrigation water wastage by applying proper irrigation only in those locations where
plant water stress is low.
4. Increase overall yield.

The system is available for use on android, iOS as well as web.

Unlocking the Power of Precision Agriculture: A Beginner’s Guide to Satellite-Driven Farming

PrecisionAg101 Post #1 : Starting today, we will be releasing posts regularly to make farmers aware of the basics of precision agriculture and how to interpret various satellite data provided by us.

The field image attached below is of the farmer Harikrushn from Surendranagar, Gujarat (Field Area: 6 Hectares). The image displayed on the map is NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) captured by the satellite on 15 Feb 2020. NDVI images are used to quantify crop health status in a field. The colors used to quantify this information is very easy to interpret.

Dark Green/ Green: Crop is very healthy
Yellow: Crop needs attention
Red: Barren land

In the posted image, as we can see, the top left portion of the field is completely barren, whereas the remaining field is in the yellowish green or green region. This indicates that the crop health of the farmer’s field is pretty well. To cross-verify these results farmers can simply open GPS on their smartphones and can navigate through the field using this image.

By using satellite data provided by us, farmers can:
1. Reduce Chemical/Fertilizer consumption by applying them only in the locations where crop
health is not good.
2. Reduce Labour costs by directing the labours only in those field areas where crop health is
critical.
3. Reduce irrigation water wastage by applying proper irrigation only in those locations where

Revolutionizing Agriculture: Farmonaut’s Affordable Satellite Crop Monitoring for Every Farmer

Farmonaut’s Satellite Based Crop Health Monitoring System is built to put satellite technology in the hands of each and every farmer in the most economical way. Our objective is to break the cost barrier and help democratize remote sensing in the farming community by providing an on-the-go always ready platform for field monitoring through satellites. In an attempt to further our goal, we have introduced Farmonaut’s Satellite Based Crop Health Monitoring System for web usage as well. The system is also accessible through our android as well as iOS apps.

Unlocking Field Secrets: Decoding ETCI and VARI for Smarter Farming

PrecisionAg101 Post #3 : These posts are meant to make farmers aware of the basics of precision agriculture and how to interpret various satellite data provided by us.

The field image attached below is of the farmer Tafuma Fundira (Masvingo, Zimbabwe), (Field Area: 2 Hectares). The image displayed on the map is ETCI (Enhanced True Color Image) on the left and VARI (Visible Atmospherically Resistant Index) image on the right. ETCI stands for Enhanced True Color Image. It is basically a TCI image processed by our own systems to enhance the land features which were not so explicitly visible in the raw TCI Image. VARI stands for Visible Atmospherically Resistant Index. VARI is minimally resistant to atmospheric effects, allowing vegetation to be estimated in a wide variety of environment. Hence, it is ideally recommended to be used for farm level decision making if TCI and ETCI images show visible atmospheric distortion such as mild clouds or haze above the field. The colors used to quantify this information is very easy to interpret.
Dark Green/ Green: Crop is very healthy
Yellow: Crop needs attention
Red: Barren land
In the posted image, as we can see, the ETCI image seems to be distorted due to haze and clouds. In such cases vegetation indices like NDVI will not give correct observations. Thus, VARI is used in such cases. As we can see through the VARI image, a majority of the field is growing pretty well, with some barren regions shown in red. To cross-verify these results farmers can simply open GPS on their smartphones and can navigate through the field using this image.

By using satellite data provided by us, farmers can:
1. Reduce Chemical/Fertilizer consumption by applying them only in the locations where crop health is not good.
2. Reduce Labour costs by directing the labours only in those field areas where crop health is critical.
3. Reduce irrigation water wastage by applying proper irrigation only in those locations where plant water stress is low.
4. Increase overall yield.

Unlocking Crop Health Secrets: Mastering NDRE for Advanced Precision Agriculture

PrecisionAg101 Post #4 : These posts are meant to make farmers aware of the basics of precision agriculture and how to interpret various satellite data provided by us.

The field image attached below is of the farmer Paulo o (Ponta Pora – State of Mato Grosso do Sul, 79900-000, Brazil), (Field Area: 47 Hectares). The image displayed on the map is NDRE (Normalized Difference Red Edge) captured by the satellite. NDRE images are used to quantify crop health when the crop is in the later stage of growth. NDVI index is not ideal for the crops in their later stage of growth because in grasses, cereal crops, permanent crops and in certain row crops which are in their later growth stages, chlorophyll content reaches a point at which NDVI reaches a maximum value of 1.0 and hence saturates. Hence, any crop health issue is hard to detect with NDVI until any such problem becomes strong enough to reduce the NDVI value below 1.0. This may happen at a point at which damage has already occurred. By substituting NDVI’s red band with NDRE’s red edge band we can mitigate this issue of saturation discussed above. So, in conclusion, if the crops of observation are permanent or dense, you should use NDRE right away. The colors used to quantify this information is very easy to interpret.

Dark Green/ Green: Crop is very healthy
Yellow: Crop needs attention
Red: Barren land

To cross-verify these results farmers can simply open GPS on their smartphones and can navigate through the field using this image.

By using satellite data provided by us, farmers can:
1. Reduce Chemical/Fertilizer consumption by applying them only in the locations where crop
health is not good.
2. Reduce Labour costs by directing the labours only in those field areas where crop health is
critical.
3. Reduce irrigation water wastage by applying proper irrigation only in those locations where
plant water stress is low.
4. Increase overall yield.

Revolutionizing Soil Health: Farmonaut Unveils Soil Organic Carbon Estimation Feature

Today, we are releasing Soil Organic Carbon Content Estimation in beta stage with our already offered crop health and vegetation water stress satellite data through our platforms.
Organic matter contributes to nutrient retention and turnover, soil structure, moisture retention, degradation of pollutants, carbon sequestration and soil resilience. Majority of the agricultural fields lose substantial organic matter post-harvest and once the new crop-cycle starts, if the SOC levels have not recovered, the crop yield may not be same for all the parts of the field. Hence, once our data has identified some locations to be having less SOC levels, farmers can get the soil testing done on those regions and add required nutrients to those regions to rejuvenate the soil organic matter levels. This will ultimately lead to better yields.

Update your app now and start using this new feature!

Slash Fertilizer Costs by 30%: How Farmonaut’s Remote Sensing Tech Saves Indian Farmers Thousands

In 2016, fertilizer consumption for India was 165.8 kilograms per hectare. Fertilizer consumption of India increased from 100.3 kilograms per hectare in 2002 to 165.8 kilograms per hectare in 2016 growing at an average annual rate of 3.81 %.
The chemical price can vary from 250 rupees to 2000 rupees per kg depending upon the specific chemical being used. So on an average an Indian farmer spends between 41500 to 332000 rupees per year on each hectare of arable land.

Farmonaut identifies those areas of land where the crop growth is not normal. Farmer can apply fertilizers, chemicals, insecticides, pesticides, plant growth regulators etc. only in
those areas where the crop growth is not normal. By using
remote sensing results provided by Farmonaut, a farmer can save at least 30% on chemical consumption per year.

Satellite Insights: Tracking Maize Growth in Argentina with EVI Index

These are a few fields recently added to our platforms for satellite monitoring by one of the users from Argentina. Both of these fields (96 Ha and 27 Ha) have maize and are currently in the early stage of growth. The displayed images are of EVI index. This is a side-by-side comparison of crop growth during a gap of 10 days captured by the satellites from 4th August, 2020 to 14th August, 2020. The data reveals that crop is growing fine at the majority of the locations and at some locations wherein the EVI index is low, a field visit must be conducted at priority and recropping must be performed if the crop has failed to grow in those locations.

By having this data, farmers can maximize their yield.

1. Reduce Chemical/Fertilizer consumption by applying them only in the locations where crop health is not good.
2. Reduce Labour costs by directing the labours only in those field areas where crop health is critical.
3. Reduce irrigation water wastage by applying proper irrigation only in those locations where plant water stress is low.
4. Increase overall yield.
5. Maintain good nutrient composition post-harvest by getting the soil testing done on the locations where Farmonaut’s SOC model has identified the level of soil organic carbon to be low.

It can not only reduce and Infact end the use of chemicals on the field but also increase the overall crop yield as well prevent the deterioration of soil nutrient composition which may happen due to the prolonged usage of chemicals on land.

Revolutionary Satellite Fusion: One Image, Four Crucial Farm Insights

We are taking user experience to the next level. Now farmers can assess meaningful data of 7 different satellite images into a single image and take farm level actions at even faster rates. With this newly developed image type, farmers will get information about:

1. Locations with good crop health and water stress
2. Locations with bad crop health
3. Locations with bad water stress
4. Locations affected by clouds

all these information embedded within a single image. Stay tuned! This new update is releasing soon!

Happy Farming!

From Paddy to Pixels: Tracking Crop Health and Soil Vitality in Bihar’s Farming Hub

With Paddy season about to finish in the coming weeks, the short clip attached below provides an overview of how crop health varied from July (26-July-2020) till August (30-Aug-2020) in one of our extensive farming hubs (Rahua, Bihar). The displayed image is of NDRE (Normalized Difference Red Edge) used to assess crops in the stage of later growth.

The colormap shows majority of the area in good condition and suitable for harvesting in the next few weeks. Once the crop is harvested, we will capture the Soil organic carbon content of the bare land and identify locations where soc content may have gone down. Once these locations are identified, a priority soil testing will be done on those locations.

We will keep everyone posted.

Happy Farming!

Revolutionizing Crop Monitoring: Farmonaut’s Satellite-Powered Precision Farming App

The field displayed is one of our farmers from Rattanpura, Rajasthan having cotton, guar and moong currently under cultivation. The information in the image below can be interpreted as follows:

1. (Green) Locations with good crop health and water stress
2. (Orange) Locations with bad crop health
3. (Purple) Locations with bad water stress
4. (White) Locations affected by clouds
all these information embedded within a single image.

Users who want the high-level analysis (NDVI, NDRE, EVI, VARI, NDWI etc.) can switch to the advanced version of the app just by a tap on the screen.

With Farmonaut’s Satellite Based Crop Health Monitoring System, farmers can monitor their crops for health, manage irrigation water usage, assess variation of crop health with time, discuss with the community their issues and collaborate with each other and can do so much more!!

From Space to Harvest: How Israeli Cotton Farmers Use Satellite NDVI for Perfect Defoliation Timing

The field displayed below is of one of our farmers from Israel and is approximately of area 15 hectares. The satellite data is of 7-Sep-2020. He has been using Farmonaut app since last one year and has been monitoring cotton in the farm. The displayed image is of NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index).
As is visible from the image, the field has reached its maturity and is ready for defoliation. Identifying the right time for defoliation helps farmers in maximizing their yield. The app is available on Google Play Store, Apple App Store as well as a Web App on our website
