Use the free Connected Farm™ Scout app on your smartphone or tablet to map field boundaries, flag points of interest, and enter scouting information. Select from an extensive list of weeds, insects and diseases while entering the severity of a problem, crop condition, and more. Photos can also be captured and integrated with your scouting information.

The app is compatible with the PurePixel™ precision vegetation health solution. PurePixel allows you to analyze the crop health at various stages of the growing season. These vegetation maps can display in the background to help navigate you to struggling areas of the field, saving you precious time with targeted scouting.

Data collected with the app can be downloaded into Farm Works Software® but requires version 2015.06 or higher. If you need to order the most current version of Farm Works, please contact our sales team at 1-800-225-2848.
