Why Monitoring Matters More Than Ever

Crop conditions change quickly. Weather events, pest pressure, and disease outbreaks can impact quality and yield in days. Without real-time monitoring, you discover problems too late to fix them.

ExtendAg gives you eyes in every field. When growers plant, spray, or harvest, you know immediately. When scouts identify potential issues, alerts reach you instantly. This early warning system helps you protect quality and prevent losses before they happen.

Growing Season Intelligence

Comprehensive Activity Tracking

Monitor planting activities as they happen across all your contracted fields. Track cultural practices like cultivation, irrigation, and pest management. Record crop milestones that are important for your processing requirements. Capture scouting observations for proactive decision-making.
