PasturePulse

PasturePulse is a web + mobile app that uses satellite imagery and basic field data to help livestock producers plan rotational grazing and avoid overgrazing. Farmers connect their fields via simple map drawing, then the app pulls in vegetation indices and local weather to estimate forage availability and regrowth rates. Instead of eyeballing grass height or relying on outdated rules of thumb, users get weekly, field-level stocking recommendations and rest-period suggestions. The app focuses on being brutally practical: simple dashboards, clear color-coded maps, and concrete numbers (e.g., days of grazing left for each paddock at current stocking). It also tracks historical performance, so producers can see which paddocks are degrading and where they’re leaving money on the table by under-utilizing forage. This is not a magic button; it still requires farmer judgment and local knowledge, but it drastically reduces guesswork and helps avoid expensive feed purchases caused by mismanaged pasture. The app is a traditional app with some AI components (e.g., anomaly detection, basic forecasting), but leans heavily on proven remote-sensing pipelines rather than flashy black-box models.
