Field variability isn't the problem. It's what you do with it that matters. Every field has areas with different yield potential, soil characteristics, and input requirements. The opportunity? Turn those differences into an economic advantage. SWAT MAPS helps you understand where to invest more, where to pull back, and how to allocate inputs based on each zone's potential. Precision ag isn't just about managing variability. It's about turning field variability into a smarter, more profitable management strategy. Precision that pays, confidence that counts.

New service provider announcement! Founded in 2026 by Josefine Bartlett, NordÄng Agronomy is based near the Fairview, AB area. Bartlett’s decision to become a SWAT MAPS partner began on her family farm. After implementing SWAT MAPS, she saw firsthand how the technology helped explain field variability and uncover opportunities that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. "Using SWAT MAPS on our own farm was eye-opening. It helped put field variability into perspective in a way that was practical and actionable,” said Bartlett. “Having watched the technology evolve over the years, I saw the value it could bring to other growers as well. It's a tool that works, and it helps farmers make sense of the challenges they deal with every day." Welcome, NordÄng! READ MORE: bit.ly/4g13C0A #CdnAg #SWATMAPS

In our latest blog, Rachelle Farrell out of Alberta explains how wet conditions can affect your soil and nutrients, and what to look for this season.
