Changed blocks
Find the blocks that moved enough to justify attention before the crew starts walking.
Orchard stress detection
Detect orchard stress zones before the first walk.
Farmbit helps orchard, berry, and vineyard teams flag changed blocks, likely irrigation follow-up, canopy stress patterns, and first-walk priorities from a satellite first pass.
What the crew receives
One short handoff instead of another dashboard
Ranked zones
Likely first check
Field brief
Priority map
What Farmbit can flag
What shows up in the first pass
Likely irrigation follow-up
Separate the blocks that deserve a water check from the ones that can wait.
Canopy stress patterns
Highlight the zones where canopy change is concentrated enough to inspect in the field.
Scouting priority zones
Rank the first places to stand instead of handing over another full-block map.
What Farmbit does not claim
Keep the first pass honest
Farmbit is not a final disease diagnosis.
Farmbit is not a replacement for the agronomist or advisor visit.
Field validation is required before agronomic intervention.
What the first check uses
Satellite first, closer proof only if needed
Sentinel-2 first pass
The public check starts with the latest usable satellite scene and a block-level comparison against recent history.
Mapped boundary and ranked zones
Farmbit turns the first pass into a smaller field sequence: where to start, what looks changed, and what still needs caution.
Paid closer check only when earned
Move into a paid closer report only when the first read still leaves real doubt after the preview.
When this is useful
Best fit for constrained field time
Small crews choosing the first blocks before lunch.
Uncertain block condition after irrigation, heat, or a recent shift in canopy response.
Advisor handoff when the first pass needs to be readable before anyone drives out.
Growers who want to test one block before paying for closer proof.
Next step
Use the stress page as a filter, not a promise.
Run the free block check first. If the sample output looks like the kind of note your team can use, move one real block through the same path.
