Development of new products and services

From the outset we have been aiming to develop new quality precision farming products, adapted to changing market requirements. This is achieved through collaborative agreements with national or multi-national suppliers of fertilisers, agrochemicals etc or independently.

More than ten years of trading

Sky-farm was formed in November 1998 by the current Directors. The founders always felt that there would be a role for a specialist service company sitting between the international companies (machinery, fertiliser, agchem / seed, electronic equipment and satellite owners) and the agronomists (independent and dealer / co-ops) who advise farmers.   Over the last decade all the work of the company and the experience of the market place has confirmed this key foundation for the basis of the company.

Imagery

Our initial expertise was the procurement and processing of airborne and satellite imagery.  Compared with other measurements (yield and soil) imagery has the advantage of enabling adjustments according to seasonal progress of the crop.

Expanding product range

Whilst imagery has been the point of differentiation of the company from other suppliers and the start point of our service offering, we continue to explore and develop our product range to include other components of precision farming service support as appropriate.
