Farmers turning to satellite data to improve yields

Article by: Darren Griffin
Date: 3 Dec 2015

A new service from German company Vista is providing farmers with custom map data that they can use with GPS to optimise the use of fertiliser, weedkiller and improve cultivation and yields.

Data from mapping satellites provides information on fertility, biomass and yields and provide the farmer with an overview of their land. Field specific analysis of crops is possible allowing for the best use of land, placement of crops and resources.

The data available is impressive and would previously only have been available by deploying in-field sensors.
