In California, The Climate Corporation, a subsidiary of Monsanto Company, and Koch Agronomic Services, LLC announced an agreement in which Koch will provide product research data to Climate to use in the development of the data science models underlying Climate’s FieldView digital agriculture platform. These advanced models feed Climate’s nitrogen monitoring tools that help farmers build customized management plans for each field to optimize their inputs and maximize productivity.
Koch produces and markets a global portfolio of plant performance technologies including AGROTAIN nitrogen stabilizer and SUPERU fertilizer. With the addition of Koch Agronomic Services’ product data, farmers will be able to select the Koch Agronomic Services’ product they applied in each field in their Climate FieldView account, along with the type of nitrogen fertilizer applied, making Climate’s nitrogen insights even more personalized.
Koch Agronomic Services product selection within a farmer’s Climate FieldView account is expected for the 2018 growing season.
