Two New Technologies helping make Smarter Nitrogen & Fungicide Decisions

Every season farmers face the same expensive questions: Should I spray fungicide? Does this field really need more nitrogen? Which fields deserve my attention first? How do I know the recommendation is actually right? At Tech Hub LIVE, Farm4Profit sits down with Kristine White, CEO of Spornado, and Jackson Stansell, CEO of Sentinel Ag, to explore two innovative technologies designed to answer those questions with data. Kristine explains how Spornado captures airborne fungal spores before disease symptoms ever appear, allowing growers to make preventative fungicide decisions weeks earlier than traditional scouting. The conversation also dives into fungicide resistance testing, predictive disease modeling, and the future of automated disease alerts. Jackson discusses Sentinel Ag's satellite-powered nitrogen management platform, which combines imagery, weather, soil characteristics, and proprietary calibration plots to help growers determine where—and whether—additional nitrogen is actually needed. The discussion expands into water management, nutrient efficiency, manure applications, and how AI could reshape agronomic decision-making. The conversation also explores: Disease forecasting Satellite imagery AI in agriculture Crop scouting Fungicide timing Nitrogen management Water quality Retail agronomy ROI on new technology Data-driven farming Startup innovation The future of precision agriculture If your goal is making smarter decisions before writing another input check, this episode is packed with ideas worth considering.
