Your go-to API source for building with simplified field irrigation data
A unified source of agricultural irrigation data
Water is a precious and vital resource for growing crops, which makes irrigation an important metric for growers to track. However, like many other types of farm data, field irrigation data has traditionally been challenging to build with due to the diversity of proprietary formats and providers of irrigation data. That’s where Leaf comes in. We’ve partnered with leading providers in this space like Lindsay Fieldnet and Valley Agronomics to deliver standardized agricultural irrigation data. With a consistent source now at your fingertips, you can create new tools for growers/users to monitor water usage, optimize water use efficiency, and make informed decisions about managing water resources.
