Kick Off the Season with Early-Stage AI Monitoring for Field Crops

A Smarter Start for Your Crops

Early-season crop monitoring with AI gives farmers a major advantage. At planting and early growth stages, decisions shape the entire season. By using Agremo’s crop analysis tools now, growers can identify issues early and act fast.

In late March and early April, most U.S. growers focus on corn, soybean, wheat, oats, and barley. These crops are either being seeded or entering early vegetative stages. It’s the perfect time to use Agremo’s early-season crop monitoring with AI.

Let’s explore how Agremo supports each crop at this stage.

Winter Wheat & Manage Stand and Stress Early

Winter wheat is now in tillering or early stem elongation. Strong, even growth at this stage builds yield potential later.

Use early-season crop monitoring with AI to check stand uniformity and detect stress. Agremo’s Stand Count confirms plant density after dormancy. Waterlogging Detection highlights excess moisture zones from snowmelt or rain. Elevation Analysis helps manage drainage in uneven fields. Plant Vigor shows where plants are weak and need attention.

Start the season with clear data and avoid surprises later.

Spring Wheat & Monitor Emergence and Weed Pressure

Spring wheat planting is underway in northern states. As seedlings emerge, even stands are key.

Early season crop monitoring with AI helps farmers confirm emergence with Stand Count. Agremo’s Weed Detection catches infestations early so farmers can target herbicide use. Waterlogging Detection shows where poor drainage may slow growth. Elevation Analysis supports better field prep and input planning.

With Agremo, you can act on problems while they’re still easy to fix.

Oats and Barley & Build Strong Stands Early

Oats and barley need a strong start to support productive tillering later.

Agremo’s Stand Count identifies weak zones right after emergence. Weed Detection enables early, efficient control. Waterlogging Detection protects roots from oxygen loss. Elevation Analysis supports smarter irrigation and drainage decisions.

Early season crop monitoring with AI gives small grains a better shot at high performance.

Soybean & Focus on Uniform Emergence and Weed Control

Soybean planting has started in warmer areas. The VE and VC stages are critical for healthy establishment.

Use Agremo to check uniformity with Stand Count. Weed Detection helps avoid early-season competition. Waterlogging Detection flags wet zones that can cause stunting. Elevation Analysis gives farmers a full view of how topography affects water flow.

Agremo’s tools make early season crop monitoring with AI easy and effective for soybean growers.

Corn& Detect Threats Before They Cost You

Corn is being seeded across much of the U.S. In southern states, it’s already emerging. This is the most important time to monitor field conditions.

Weed Detection (V0–V10) helps optimize herbicide use with precision spraying maps. Waterlogging Detection prevents root zone damage. Elevation Analysis shows where water collects or drains too fast. Once the crop reaches V3, Stand Count confirms population and highlights replant zones.

With early season crop monitoring with AI, corn farmers can act faster, apply inputs smarter, and prevent yield loss.

Why Early Season Crop Monitoring with AI Matters

The earlier you spot a problem, the easier it is to solve it. Agremo’s AI-powered tools deliver timely, field-specific insights. These help farmers and ag professionals to make better decisions, reduce waste, and improve crop performance. Whether you’re managing wheat in the Midwest or corn in the South, Agremo gives you real-time visibility and confidence.

    Smart Farming Team

  • As markets become more defined and customer expectations are increasingly specific, Black Gold believes that we must develop greater awareness of how our crops function. Agremo provides a new window into understanding what is happening in our fields at a more granular level and how to move the needle in the best direction.

    Bryan Bowen

    Director of Agronomy at Black Gold Farms

  • Agremo helps us better understand and adjust to changes throughout the growing season. The flexibility and agility the Agremo team has shown through their platform enable us to adjust and meet changing demands due to weather or pest developments as the season progresses. In addition, the Agremo team consistently listens to feedback to ensure that everything works as described for our specific use cases.

    Mapping Expert and President @ Caribe Drones // Puerto Rico

  • Agremo’s map is more specific. Competitors break their maps into half-acre grids, but Agremo colors the whole thing exactly how it is. Visually, it’s night and day. A lot of farmers are visual.

    Corey Nohl

    Drone Operator and Farmer @ Above All Aerial // MN, USA

  • With Agremo reports, farmers they can increase productivity, reduce major problems by having early warnings during the early stages of the crops preventing major losses. Bottom line, increase ROI while minimizing losses.

    Miguel Ángel Salgado

    General Manager & Mapping Expert @ Ansar Drone // Mexico

  • The best thing about the plant population reports is the accuracy, which is splendid and it is very important! Great service at eye level with the customer!

    Sune Enevoldsen

    Field Manager and Drone Operator @ Noble Nordmann // Denmark

  • The biggest benefit for farmers who use drones and Agremo reports is that they increase their yields, reduce costs or improve their productivity. In the end, all these benefits are lead to extra profits.

    General Manager @ La Orizont // Romania

  • We introduced new farming methods to farmers in Africa, who recognized that Agremo and drones can provide them with quicker, more convenient, efficient and accurate way of gathering decision making information.

    Derrick Annan

    CEO @ Aeroshutter // Ghana

  • With Agremo, we doubled our productivity, and our forestry clients are happy with the Agremo reports necessary for the inventory system as well as a stem map with tree distribution.

    Curt Rogers

    Co-owner @ TimberDrone // USA

  • Of the few vendors who advertised drone imagery analytics, Agremo provided a vastly superior capability. It is extremely important to base any remote sensing assessment in solid ground truth. Agremo clearly excelled over their competitors.

    Konrad Kern
