less water than running the sprinklers every day, on a 190-acre wheat, barley, oats and alfalfa farm.

Satellite Crop Monitoring & AI Farm Advisory
975,000+ acres monitored. 107,000+ fields mapped by customers in 135 countries.
Satellite crop monitoring that sees every field, every few days.
Farmonaut turns satellite imagery into actionable insights for every field. It reads what satellites see and tells you, field by field, how much water your crops need, which nutrients are lacking, and where pests or diseases may be emerging. It is agriculture software for remote crop monitoring, a crop monitoring app and precision agriculture software in one: map your fields once, from a phone or a browser, and the advice arrives every few days.
- No sensors in the ground.
- No drones to fly.
- No field visits.
Just satellite data, turned into decisions.


The real product, redrawn for clarity from our demo field: the map you draw a field on with its farm advisory, and the Today page that turns it into what to do next.

One farmer. 25 blocks of blueberries. One consultancy. 10 crops across 3 countries.
Different farms need different answers. Here are two real examples of how Farmonaut is being used to make those decisions clearer. Both are published in full at farmonaut.com/case-study.

He could have watered every day. The report told him not to.
This 190-acre farm grows durum wheat, barley, oats and alfalfa. Each field was monitored separately, taking into account the crop, its stage of growth, soil conditions and weather. Over one week, the recommendations were different for every field. Some needed water. Others needed less as harvest approached. Fields that were already finished were told not to water at all.
The result was simple: instead of running the sprinklers every day, the farmer had a schedule showing exactly how much water each field needed โ and which days to leave the sprinklers off.
This is the case that reads across to anywhere water is pumped and expensive โ California, Spain, Australia, the Texas High Plains.
This is what field-level monitoring changes: you donโt get one irrigation recommendation for the farm. You get the right recommendation for each field, on each day.
He confirmed in our in-app feedback form (May 2026) that the report helped him water better. The 51% figure comes from his own seven-day schedule compared against watering every day.

Read the case studyBy the time a field looks unhealthy, yield loss may have already begun.
Healthy crops absorb red light for photosynthesis and reflect near-infrared light โ a part of the spectrum our eyes cannot see. When plants come under stress, their near-infrared response changes before visible signs appear.
Satellite crop health monitoring reads that change across every 10 meters of every field, on the same schedule, whether or not anyone had time to walk it this week โ when there is still time to act.
A healthy leaf
Soaks up red light to feed itself, and throws almost all the hidden light straight back.
A struggling leaf
Stops feeding, so it reflects more red and much less hidden light. This change shows first.
The fortnight you lose
A scout walks one line across a block. The satellite reads the whole field. The hidden-light reading falls about two weeks before the color changes โ that gap is where yield is saved or lost.
Schematic, to show the idea โ not measured data.
Watch the fortnight on a real field
What the hidden-light reading does in the two weeks before the color changes โ and why walking the field cannot close that gap on its own.
Crop monitoring software that tells you what to do โ for every field.
Every few days, Farmonaut turns satellite imagery, field history and local conditions into clear answers. You see whatโs changing, how much it matters and what needs your attention โ precision agriculture without precision-farming equipment. No GPS kit, soil probes or drones.
Add a field by searching its address, drawing the boundary yourself, or uploading an existing map file.

Analyze your farm โ16 satellite views of every field โ young crop, mature crop, water, the ground itself, through cloud โ plus nutrients and pests+
Young crop
See early crop growth clearly, even when exposed soil makes standard satellite readings misleading.
Mature crop
See differences within a dense canopy and spot early signs of stress, including potential nitrogen shortage.
Water
Know how much water your crop and soil hold, how quickly it is being used, and where the field needs attention.
The ground itself
Organic matter, elevation, slope and what is growing where โ the fundamentals of the field.
Through cloud
Keep monitoring through monsoon, fog and smoke with radar imagery, so the field record stays continuous.
Feed only what the crop needs
See where each nutrient stands against the cropโs requirement, with the dose for each one. On one Florida farm, 8 of 25 blocks were told to apply nothing; on a Nigerian groundnut field, the advice was to skip nitrogen completely โ the crop makes its own.
Protect what needs protecting
Know which pest, disease or weed puts the crop at risk, why it was flagged and two treatment options โ organic and chemical. On one account the apple field was flagged for one scab fungus and the pear field for a different one.


One platform. 166 crops. From oil palm to blueberries.
From broad-acre crops to specialized fruit and tree crops, the same satellite crop monitoring system works across 166 crops. The figures count only fields where the farmer has named the crop, so real coverage is likely higher โ and adding a new crop doesnโt mean building a new system.

Farms, plantations and agribusinesses โ plus universities that teach on it.
From farmers and plantations to co-operatives, agri-input companies, farm-management services and food buyers, businesses across the agricultural value chain use the platform as their farm management software. Businesses are counted by trading name; universities and colleges are shown separately, as their accounts are used for teaching and research.
Teaching crop intelligence in 20 countries
Students and faculty are already using Farmonaut to work with real fields and real satellite data โ giving the next generation of agricultural professionals hands-on experience with modern crop monitoring.
It matters commercially in one plain way: farm-science graduates who learned to read a crop-health map on this platform turn up at their first job already knowing how to use it.
Evidence beyond our own case studies
Independent researchers with no commercial relationship with Farmonaut have examined how farmers adopt the system, how the technology is built and its measured impact on water use.

Satellite crop monitoring: questions before you start
Short answers on how it works, what it costs and how it fits with the tools you already use.
What is satellite crop monitoring?
+
Satellite crop monitoring uses images taken from space every few days to measure crop health, water stress and growth on each of your fields. Farmonaut turns those readings into field-level advice: how much water in millimeters, how much fertilizer in kilograms and which pests or diseases are a risk, with a probability.
How often are my fields updated?
+
Every few days. New satellite passes are processed as they arrive, and radar data keeps readings coming when clouds block the optical images.
How much does satellite crop monitoring cost?
+
Farm monitoring is a subscription priced by the area of the fields you monitor, and you can choose and pay for a plan online at sat.farmonaut.com. See pricing for the plans.
Do I need sensors, drones or field visits?
+
No. Everything comes from satellite data, so there is nothing to install. You draw or upload your field boundaries and the monitoring starts from the next satellite pass.
Which crops and countries does it work for?
+
166 crops so far, from corn, wheat and soybeans to vineyards, orchards, blueberries and oil palm, on fields in 135 countries, including the United States, Canada, Australia and across Europe.
Is it precision agriculture software or a farm management system?
+
It is precision agriculture software for crop monitoring and field advice. It works alongside the farm management software you use for records and accounting, and the data can be pulled into those tools through the Agriculture Data API.
What is the best crop monitoring app?
+
The best crop monitoring app is the one that tells you what to do on each field, not just how green it looks. Check for field-by-field updates every few days, water and fertilizer advice in real units, pest and disease risk, mapping of your own field boundaries, coverage of your crops and an API if you run your own software. Farmonaut covers all six; the Crop monitoring software section above shows the screens.
Can I use the data in my own software?
+
Yes. The Agriculture Data API returns the same field views the platform draws (crop health, water stress and the other indices), the values behind each picture and the full field report, so agribusinesses, insurers and software teams can build it into their own products.
