Field Crop Monitoring
Field crops are shaped by complex interactions between pollinators, weather, landscape and management. AgriSound provides continuous monitoring throughout the flowering period to support agronomic decisions.
The Challenge
Pollination Is One of the Least Measured Yield Drivers
Occasional visual observations fail to explain how pollination changes across critical flowering windows and large fields.
Without continuous monitoring it is difficult to:
Relying on post-harvest calculations or occasional walks means identifying pollination failures only when it is too late to make adjustments.
- Understand pollinator activity throughout the critical flowering window.
- Compare the performance of different management strategies and biodiversity initiatives.
- Explain year-to-year yield variation and build future agronomic evidence.
Connected Data Sources
AgriSound combines multiple environmental and operational data sources into one structured, cloud-connected monitoring platform.
- Polly™ Acoustic Monitoring: Measures pollinator activity alongside environment 24/7 during flowering.
- Smart Tags™ Digital Records: Rapidly captures observations directly from the crop.
- Connected Infrastructure: Links every device, tag and field observation securely.
Structured Data
Building Long-Term Environmental Records
| Capability / Outcome | Traditional | AgriSound |
|---|---|---|
| Data Consistency | Disconnected spreadsheets and notes | Linked to a structured data model |
| Flowering Performance | Isolated surveys and observations | Continuous spatiotemporal metrics |
| Agronomic Benchmarking | Limited, non-comparable field reports | Multi-site seasonal comparisons |
| Decision Intelligence | Subjective or post-harvest inferences | Evidence-based crop management |
Typical Deployment Workflow
Step-by-Step Implementation
Our structured deployments build a clear, multi-season baseline without any disruption to your active land management.
Plan the Monitoring Programme
Define fields, monitoring locations, flowering windows and key project objectives before flowering begins.
Deploy Polly Monitoring
Install Polly monitoring devices across representative crop areas to capture continuous spatiotemporal activity.
Capture Field Records
Use Smart Tags throughout the season to record crop observations, biodiversity features, and habitat conditions.
Monitor & Improve Performance
Analyse seasonal performance, track pollinator activity alongside climate, and evaluate key land interventions.
Building Long-Term Pollination Intelligence
AgriSound combines continuous acoustic monitoring, structured digital field records and connected environmental infrastructure to create a complete understanding of pollination throughout the flowering period, enabling evidence-based decisions that strengthen crop performance.
