Agriculture & Farming Automations

5 done-for-you automations built for the roles that keep this industry running. Book a consultation and we'll tailor any of these to your exact tools.

Farm Manager

Planting & Harvest Schedule Builder & Field Activity Log

Based on crop selection, field acreage, seed population rates, and the planned planting window, this automation generates a field-by-field planting schedule with equipment requirements and operator assignments. As planting progresses, operators submit brief daily field logs via mobile form, and the farm manager sees a live map of completed versus remaining acreage in real time. When harvest begins, the same system tracks field-by-field yield data as the combine reports it, compares actual yield against projected bushels, and flags underperforming fields for agronomic review, turning a spreadsheet that lives on one person's laptop into a shared, always-current operational picture.

Tools Required
Airtable or Google Sheets (field schedule and activity log)Jotform (daily field log)Zapier or Make.comTwilio (operator task notifications)Google Maps or farm mapping tool (field visualization)
Crop Scout

Pest & Disease Alert & Treatment Dispatch System

When a crop scout submits a scouting report identifying pest pressure or disease above economic threshold (whether aphids, corn rootworm, white mold, or any flagged issue) this automation immediately notifies the farm manager and the designated agronomist, calculates the field acreage requiring treatment, generates a pre-filled pesticide application record, and schedules the application crew. The entire chain from "I found a problem" to "the sprayer is scheduled" happens automatically, rather than through a series of calls and texts that eat hours out of a narrow spray window when every hour of delay matters.

Tools Required
Jotform (scouting report form)Zapier or Make.comAirtable (pest pressure log by field)Twilio (farm manager and agronomist alert)Google Sheets (pesticide application record)
Agricultural Sales Representative

Seed & Input Reorder Campaign & Pre-Season Booking System

Each fall, this automation sends every grower in the rep's territory a personalized pre-season booking offer for seed, crop protection, and fertilizer, populated with last year's purchase history and any current early-pay incentives. Growers who book early receive automatic order confirmations and are added to a delivery scheduling sequence for spring. Growers who haven't responded by a set date receive a follow-up from the rep. The result is a pre-season order book that is substantially locked in before the competition can make their pitch, rather than chasing individual orders in the chaos of spring planting.

Tools Required
CRM (e.g., AgVend or Salesforce)Zapier or Make.comMailchimp or ActiveCampaign (pre-season booking sequence)Twilio (grower text reminders)Google Sheets (pre-season order tracker)
Farm Accountant

Crop Insurance Documentation & Deadline Tracker

This automation maintains a calendar of every crop insurance reporting deadline (acreage reporting, production reporting, prevented planting claims, loss notifications) for every policy and every covered field. Reminders are sent to the farm accountant and the farm manager at 30 and 7 days before each deadline. When a loss event occurs, the system generates a checklist of required documentation, assigns tasks for field verification and yield sampling, and tracks completion until the claim package is submitted, ensuring that a covered loss doesn't become an unpaid claim because a deadline was missed or a document was missing.

Tools Required
Airtable (policy and deadline database)Zapier or Make.comGoogle Calendar (deadline entries)Email or Slack (escalating reminders)Jotform (loss event documentation form)
Livestock Manager

Animal Health Record & Vaccination Schedule Automation

Each animal in the herd is tracked by ID with a complete health record (vaccination dates, treatment history, weight gain, and breeding status) maintained automatically as events are logged via a mobile form in the field. When an animal is due for a scheduled vaccination or health event based on age or last treatment date, the livestock manager receives a task alert with the animal IDs, the protocol, and the required product. Withdrawal periods for treated animals are automatically flagged to prevent any medicated animal from being marketed before the withholding period has expired, a compliance issue with serious financial and legal consequences.

Tools Required
Livestock management software (e.g., CattleMax or Herdsman) or AirtableJotform (field health event log)Zapier or Make.comTwilio (vaccination due and withdrawal period alerts)Google Sheets (herd health summary)
