Journey of Farmonaut® in 2022 - A Bootstrapped - Profitable - Self Sustainable - High Growth - Agritech Startup

We have helped 100,000+ farmers and monitored 1 Million+ hectares of farmland worldwide! We are assisting companies like Godrej Agrovet Limited, ITC Limited, Coromandel International Limited, Troforte Innovations (Australia), Fashion For Biodiversity (Germany), Textile Technologies Group (Uzbekistan), LinxAg (Nigeria) and so many more!

Through Farmonaut platforms (android, iOS or web-app) farmers and businesses can select fields and identify the regions of the fields at which the crop condition (growth, water stress, soil health) is not normal. They can also use our API to provide satellite data to their user base.

They also receive vegetation water stress, evapotranspiration, and soil organic carbon data on top of the weather forecast data from the nearest weather station. We provide uninterrupted satellite data even during cloudy weather through radar sensors. (https://farmonaut.com)
