Ag-Analytics, a farm management platform, has integrated its PROFITLAYERS tool into the Climate Corporation’s FieldView digital farming platform.
The partnership is expected to be beneficial for growers, as they can now connect their FieldView account with Ag-Analytics to create customisable profit maps from their own ag data and perform advanced sub-field analytics to understand sources of profits and losses, along with a variety of input performance.
Ag-Analytics claims that the integration comes at a time when it is opportunistic for farmers. As planning for this year’s growing season well underway, the PROFITLAYERS 4 CLIMATE integration can add essential value for farmers who are looking to better understand their profits and losses and prepare for a profitable year.
Ag-Analytics CEO Josh Woodard said: “The Ag-Analytics PROFITLAYERS 4 CLIMATE integration will allow growers to seamlessly link advanced profit mapping to the FieldView platform to fully leverage their precision ag data in an easy-to-use interface.”
The Climate Corporation chief commercial officer John Raines said: “We are committed to delivering digital farming tools that reduce farmers’ risk and provide them with a return on their investment.
“This partnership helps farmers translate crop and input performance into dollars and cents, and it’s an excellent example of how two technology providers can work together to meet our customers’ needs.”
Farmers can avail the benefits of the integration through a monthly subscription basis for $0.01/acre with a free 30-day trial, Ag-Analytics stated.
In January this year, Ag-Analytics partnered with the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture for the collection of precision ag data.
Under the partnership, agriculture data will be collected and analysed in large volumes with an eye for creating better decision-making tools for farmers, which can in-turn help in improving yields. The partnership will use artificial intelligence to create tools.
The university, through County extension agents, is asking farmers in Arkansas to participate in the data analytics. Such collected data will be integrated with hundreds of terabytes of the satellite, soil, weather and other data.
The data will also remain confidential and personally identifiable information will be stripped from the data sets, Ag-Analytics and the university stated.
