Best Apps for Farm Management & Data
These platforms are the digital backbone of a modern farm — pulling your fields, machines, records and finances into one place.
1. Climate FieldView — Best for data-driven decisions
One of the most widely used digital-farming platforms in the world. FieldView (by Bayer) collects and visualises your field data — planting, yield, soil and satellite imagery — so you can see exactly what’s happening in each field and make data-driven decisions. It connects to most equipment and works on both web and mobile.
2. John Deere Operations Center — Best for equipment & field operations
A free platform — you don’t need green equipment to use it — that brings your machines, maps and field data into one place. Plan jobs, monitor equipment and agronomic data in real time, and share access with your team and trusted advisors, all from the mobile app or web.
3. Agworld — Best for planning & agronomy collaboration
A collaborative farm-management platform that connects growers, agronomists and advisors around one shared set of field data. Plan and record every operation — seeding, spraying, fertilising, harvest — track costs and budgets, and keep a complete, auditable history of every paddock.
4. Bushel Farm — Best for farm records & finances
The popular farm record-keeping app once known as FarmLogs is now Bushel Farm. It combines field records, satellite crop-health imagery, rainfall tracking and grain-marketing tools with financial features that tie your agronomic and money data together in a single place.
5. AGRIVI — Best global farm-management system
A farm-management system used by growers in 150+ countries. AGRIVI helps you plan and track all field activities, monitor crop health and weather, manage inventory and costs, and turn farm data into actionable insights — scaling from small farms to large agribusinesses.
Best Apps for Crop Scouting & Plant Health
Point your phone at a plant and let AI tell you what’s wrong — and what to do about it.
6. xarvio — Best for scouting & spray timing
A digital scouting and field-optimisation tool from BASF. Snap a photo of a leaf and xarvio identifies weeds, diseases and pests, gauges nitrogen status and leaf damage, and gives field-zone-specific recommendations for exactly when and how much to spray or fertilise.
7. Plantix — Best free crop-diagnosis app
The #1 free app for crop diagnosis. Photograph a damaged plant and Plantix’s AI identifies the pest, disease or nutrient deficiency and suggests a treatment. With support for dozens of crops and many languages, it’s especially popular with smallholder farmers worldwide.
Best App for Livestock Farmers
8. AgriWebb — Best for livestock management
A leading livestock-management app for cattle and sheep producers. Record animal health, movements, grazing, treatments and inventory straight from your phone — even offline in the paddock — and use that data for compliance, performance tracking and smarter grazing decisions.
Best Apps for Buying & Selling
From second-hand tractors to crop-protection chemicals, these apps help you buy smarter and sell better.
9. Tractor Zoom — Best for buying & valuing equipment
The place to research, value and buy farm equipment. Search auctions and dealer listings across the country, compare specs and prices, and use its ‘Iron Comparables’ data to see what tractors and implements are actually selling for — invaluable when you’re buying or selling machinery.
10. Agrellus — Best marketplace for farm inputs
An online marketplace for farm inputs and specialty products. Request quotes and compare prices from different dealers for chemicals, fertilisers, seed and additives, then order it all in one place with built-in payment and delivery — handy for farmers watching their input budget.
11. Farmers Business Network (FBN) — Best for input pricing & farmer network
A farmer-to-farmer network and input store rolled into one. FBN members get transparent pricing on seed, crop protection and other inputs (often with fast delivery), plus benchmarking data, analytics and financial services powered by anonymised data from millions of acres.
