About FarmLab.

FarmLab was founded in 2016 with the ambitious goal of digitising the Earth’s environment. We’ve since developed a platform that empowers agronomists, consultants, and farmers to map, sample, and analyse the environment using cutting-edge remote sensing and digital mapping techniques.

Our Vision

Helping the world understand the environment

The environment, including soil, is one of the world’s largest human-managed carbon sinks and plays a crucial role in building global climate resilience. Despite extensive data collection, gaps still exist. We aim to digitise the Earth to fill these gaps, enabling informed decision-making and promoting better environmental outcomes.
