On August 29, eAgronom organized its second Direct Drill Demo Day, held in the fields of Mäe Teravili OÜ in Kautjala village, Harju County. This year's event gathered many farmers and experts to discuss and experience the possibilities and challenges of direct drilling. While the previous demo day focused on simpler conditions, in 2024, drilling techniques were tested in complex soil conditions and on fields covered with higher biomass—challenges familiar to many farmers.

Growing Together: Farmer's Stories is a blog series dedicated to shedding light on the lives, challenges, and philosophies of farmers who keep our communities nourished and our resources abundant. In each story, we dive into the personal stories of farmers from all walks of life, bringing you closer to the fields, farms, and everyday realities of those who dedicate themselves to this vital work.

Our aim is twofold: to bridge the gap between consumers and the agricultural world, providing insight into the hard work and resilience that goes into producing the food and resources we rely on daily, and to foster a space for fellow farmers and agriculture enthusiasts to exchange ideas, share their unique approaches, and find inspiration in each other’s journeys.

Each story in Growing Together: Farmer's Stories explores the dedication, adaptability, and community-minded spirit that define modern farming. Join us as we celebrate those who grow, cultivate, and innovate to keep our world thriving.

Autumn has arrived, and with it, the time to take stock of last year's Direct Drill Demo Day. It was a valuable experience both for us and for all the participants, who were able to take a closer look at direct sowing technology and see how the different seeders work in real life.

The current funding round supports eAgronom's mission to help farmers make a profitable transition to sustainable food production.

eAgronom started as a digitized field diary, but we have grown over the years and will continue to grow. We succeed because we listen to our farmers and if we can help, we will. The reason we are adding telematics data to eAgronom is also that we listen.

Agriculture continues to evolve in practice and purpose. Carbon offset farming or the practice of sequestering carbon in agricultural soils is on the rise due to multiple factors related to the environment and farm profit.

Managing the soil is a big part of farming. In recent years there’s been a rapid shift to low-carbon agriculture. This is an opportunity for farmers to focus on practices and innovations that help soils become more sustainable for farmers and the environment, particularly in storing carbon to manage rising greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.

Well-managed farms maximize crop output. But what happens when soil health is also prioritized? Carbon farming methods are utilized to manage outputs by taking care of the soil to provide new forms of profit for farmers.

Estonian agritech startup eAgronom has signed a partnership agreement with Lithuania’s largest supplier of Western agricultural machinery, DOJUS agro, to jointly develop a certified carbon farming programme in Lithuania.

Farmers wanting to improve efficiency and income can benefit from having carbon consultation. This is a key tool for farmers looking to reduce carbon footprint of the farm with monetization through carbon farming.

Farmers everywhere look for ways to keep the farm productive for generations to come. As the reality of climate change and global instabilities shake the agriculture industry, alternative solutions are becoming more viable than ever before.

Farmers understand that the soil is the bedrock in which the crops they sow will grow. From both business and ecological perspectives, implementing practices that build soil health just makes sense.

Soil carbon credits for farming are becoming a hot topic these days. How does soil carbon affect climate change? What are the benefits of using soil carbon? And how can farmers earn carbon credits?

Changing practices to be more sustainable has to be profitable for farmers, too. eAgronom works to help farmers build long-term partnerships with nature.

We at eAgronom are thrilled to announce that we are awarded the Gold Medal at the prestigious Polagra Premiery 2022 in Poland for our Carbon Programme — the first award of its kind for any carbon farming service in the region.

Many farmers are becoming interested in carbon farming but struggle with what to do first. The process ordinarily begins by connecting with a carbon program that provides needed support to farmers.

The rising threat of climate change presents daunting challenges as well as growth opportunities for a sustainable transition.

To make the most out of the budget, most farmers adjust to the demands of changing production requirements and market swings.

Agriculture is changing fast. With rising annual global carbon emissions, carbon negative farming is a sustainable solution that benefits farmers’ income and farm conditions.

How do you farm carbon? Carbon farming practices are known to improve soil health while keeping carbon locked in soils. Under a carbon program, the right set of climate-smart agriculture methods can provide income-generating outcomes to the farm.

As food demands and farming methods develop, more farmers are understanding that crop production requires balancing resources to maintain productivity over the years to come.

While cultivating land for crops has always been dynamic, the wider agricultural landscape itself is evolving rapidly to accommodate changing demands and consumer mindsets on food and the environment.

Fertiliser prices have been skyrocketing for more than a year now and 2022 isn’t any better either. Add a tighter supply squeeze to the equation, and what we have now are farmers in the middle of a perfect storm for global food production.

As the global climate continues to warm, the severity and frequency of weather events it brings add increasing challenges to farmers. No one is spared from its effects and agriculture is especially susceptible to climate impacts while global food demand rises and profitability becomes volatile.

Agriculture is providing the world’s food, energy, and resources. Different land management strategies such as cover crops maximise farming capacity, providing soil, agronomic, and economic benefits to farmers.

Farmers and land managers are uniquely positioned to drive sustainable land stewardship with large scale removal of carbon in the atmosphere and storing it in the soil through carbon farming.

eAgronom, a startup that provides farm management software (FMS) and AI-backed consulting services for farmers, has announced it raised $8 million in funding.

Agricultural lands are dynamic, and farmers persistently adapt ways to environmental changes and economic pressures.

The European Union aims for net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, a target legally bound by the European Green Deal. This means removals and emissions of greenhouse gasses must be balanced, while also aiming to strengthen resilience to climate change impacts, by 2050 and beyond.

Farming is a business that’s strongly tied to managing natural resources. This makes harvest outcomes always tricky to forecast due to factors beyond the farmer’s control, including temperature and precipitation rates. The unpredictability is only getting worse with extreme shifts in climate patterns.

Carbon is a major component of soil organic matter yet it often goes unnoticed in farming. Meanwhile, managing nutrients like N:P:K and other micronutrients for crop production is standard agriculture knowledge.

If we were asked to describe farming, then predictable and stable would be the last words to use, rather volatile would be the adjective.

Farmers face unique challenges from the fields to the industry level. In recent years, sustainable agricultural practices have been put into focus as governments and consumers call for solutions to reach net-zero global carbon emissions. In agriculture, this is where carbon farming comes in.

eAgronom has entered into strategic cooperation with LHV, the largest domestic financial group and capital provider in Estonia, leveraging the eAgronom Carbon Program to further the bank’s path to climate neutrality, said in an announcement.

The most popular remote sensing measure used in agriculture is the NDVI index. NDVI stands for Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, which simply describes the plant’s development based on how a plant reflects different light waves.

Crop rotation is one of the oldest methods used in farming. Today combined with modern technologies, is capable of producing even more substantial yield
