At Discovery Farm Langham, we use multiple data layers and platforms to bring together precision agriculture, sound agronomy, and use of special products to support decision making on the farm. One of our preferred tools for data management in the Langham, Sask. Field of Excellence project is AgExpert. 

With AgExpert management software, Discovery Farm staff tracks economics, performance and more to ensure we make informed decisions on the farm. AgExpert provides an easy way to track farm activity – from managing field inventory to planning crop rotations and tracking production costs. We appreciate the ease with which we can review what crop inputs were applied, seed varieties and fertilizer application rates, and make adjustments in real time throughout the season.
