FarmAgent (powered by FarmAT infrastructure) manages your farm from your palm.
On most farms, irrigation still means a person: travel to the pump, switch it on, and stay there watching until the field is done. Miss the window and crops stress; run too long and bores drain and money evaporates. The tools that promise to help assume apps, dashboards, English and always-on internet that rural farms rarely have.
Pumps sit far from homes. Every irrigation cycle costs a trip, often at odd hours when grid power arrives.
Without scheduling against weather and tank levels, bores run dry, tanks overflow, and money evaporates.
Existing agri-tech ships apps and dashboards. Most farms have WhatsApp, patchy signal, and no patience for logins.
The farmer instructs; the agent does the rest. Here is one simple example: a short WhatsApp message, and the field gets watered. The same pattern will carry every job on the farm.
Tell the farm what you need in plain WhatsApp: water a zone, check the tank, plan the week. Nothing to install or learn.
FarmAT reads your message knowing your farm: its zones, its pumps, its tank levels and the weather ahead.
It switches equipment, watches the results, and tells you in the same chat what it did.
Every action respects your approvals, and physical safety switches always outrank software.
Pumps are the first job we gave the agent, not the whole job. The same agent will watch crops, manage inputs and keep farm records as it grows.
Before FarmAT manages anyone else’s crops, it manages ours. Every command it sends and every mistake it makes lands on our own fields and our own water bill. We will share what we learn as the first season completes.
Farmers already use WhatsApp every day. There is nothing to install, learn or log into.
The agent keeps its state and safety rules on the farm itself. If the connection drops, the farm keeps running.
Built from standard smart switches and float switches. Any local technician can source, service and replace them.
Satellite and forecast data shape when the agent waters. The schedule comes from the sky, not a guess.
The agent works from a map of the farm’s real zones, so it waters the field you meant, not somewhere.
Float switches and manual overrides are wired into the hardware. They always have the final say.
The agent manages daily watering over WhatsApp, guided by live weather and field data. We learn on our own fields before anyone else’s.
A setup any farm can adopt, and an agent that plans watering on its own from weather, tank levels and crop stage, then asks the farmer to approve.
Fertigation, crop-health watch, labour and input logs, and market links: the whole farm in one chat, with the farmer in charge.
We’re talking to funders, impact investors, agricultural extension programs and hardware partners. Your capital turns one proven, founder-operated pilot into a kit any farm can adopt, and a head start no dashboard-first competitor can replicate.
