Satellite-based smart farming

Overview

Digital Farming with Real Field Insights

Agribid Intelligence is a digital farming product. This platform provides crop cultivation schedules, timely farming tasks and field monitoring generated from agronomy templates reviewed by agronomists and supported by satellite and weather information. It is presented as part of Agribid’s wider digital agriculture offering, which also serves farmers, FPOs and other agricultural organizations.

Satellite Monitoring and Field Insights

A satellite-monitoring workflow generally starts with a farmer or organization adding a field boundary and identifying the crop and planting date. Satellite observations can then be matched to the field over time, with imagery and derived indicators used to highlight areas that appear to be developing differently.

A field report could include:

  • A mapped field boundary and recent satellite image.
  • A vegetation-condition layer, where the service supports it.
  • A trend over available observation dates.
  • A field-level summary and locations that may warrant a ground check.
  • Relevant weather context and scheduled farm activities.

Crop Health and Vegetation Indices —

NDVI(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index)

NDVI = (NIR − Red) / (NIR + Red)

Compares red and near-infrared reflectance. It is commonly used as an indicator of vegetation greenness and density. A drop or uneven pattern over time can help flag a change that may merit inspection.

NDRE(Normalized Difference Red Edge)

Uses near-infrared and red-edge reflectance. Red-edge bands can be useful for examining canopy and chlorophyll-related variation, particularly in denser vegetation. Its availability depends on the imagery source and processing used.

For example, if one field has lower vegetation readings than an average reading, a farmer can inspect for poor germination, water stress, weeds, pests, disease or soil differences. The index helps identify where to look; it cannot determine the exact cause by itself.

These indices are indicators, not a diagnosis. Crop type, growth stage, soil background, cloud cover and other conditions can affect the reading.

Weather, Growth and Possible Stress

Satellite observations can be combined with weather information and a crop calendar to give context to field changes. Potential applications include:

  • Noting rainfall or temperature conditions that may affect upcoming activities.
  • Tracking whether crop development appears consistent across a field.
  • Flagging plots with unusual vegetation trends for scouting.
  • Helping prioritize visits after adverse weather or during sensitive crop stages.

Advisory, Cultivation Schedules and Tasks

The cultivation schedules and farmer tasks are generated from approved agronomy templates reviewed by agronomists. A practical schedule may organize work by crop stage—for example, land preparation, sowing, irrigation, nutrient application, scouting and harvest—then show the relevant task and timing to the farmer.

Recommendations are localized to crop, variety, planting date, and current field conditions.

Cultivation stage timeline: land preparation through harvest

Designed for agricultural teams

Useful insights for every stakeholder

Farmers

  • A clearer schedule of upcoming tasks.
  • Field monitoring support and signals to investigate possible changes.

FPOs and Field Teams

  • A way to organize crop-stage activities.
  • Prioritize follow-up across member farms, subject to the organization’s configured coverage.

Agronomists and Service Providers

  • Satellite and weather context to help focus field visits.
  • Tailor advice based on field insights.

Agribusinesses and Institutional Stakeholders

  • Potentially more consistent visibility into crop progress across participating fields.

Practical applications

Put field insights to work

Field Scouting

Use a change in vegetation condition to decide where a farmer should inspect first.

Crop-Stage Planning

Use the cultivation schedule to coordinate field visits or farmer reminders around expected activities.

Weather-Aware Operations

Review weather evidence when planning field work, while confirming local conditions before acting.

FPO Coordination

Group member fields by crop and activity period to organize extension support.

Season Review

Compare available field observations and task records to inform planning for a later crop cycle.

Crops and Geographic Coverage

Agribid Intelligence covers major crops currently grown across India. Coverage will expand progressively to include minor crops.
