Two-way data connectivity between The Climate Corporation’s Climate FieldView platform and Taranis has been established through a global partnership between the 2 companies.

Taranis announced a new global platform partnership agreement with The Climate Corporation, a subsidiary of Bayer. The agreement will provide mutual farmer customers in the U.S., Brazil and Argentina, two-way data connectivity between The Climate Corporation’s Climate FieldView platform and Taranis.

Through this partnership, high-resolution aerial imagery data and field-level insights will seamlessly flow into a farmer’s FieldView account at their request to assist the farmer in mitigating risk of crop yield loss due to insects, crop disease, weeds and nutrient deficiencies.

Improve productivity and profitability

“Our combined technologies will enable farmers to view high-quality images of their operations, quickly helping them identify field and crop health threats and opportunities in-season,” Ofir Schlam, CEO and Co-founder of Taranis said. “These valuable insights can make it easier for farmers and their agronomic partners to develop further solutions to improve productivity and profitability.”
