FarmBlick

What FarmBlick does

FarmBlick GmbH is a German precision-agriculture (smart farming) software and services company founded in 2017 by Oliver Martin and headquartered in Sulzfeld, Baden-Württemberg. The company operates the FarmBlick-Community platform, a cloud-based system that integrates multi-source agricultural data — including Sentinel and Landsat satellite imagery, EM38 soil scanning, ISARIA plant sensors (acquired in 2025), weather station feeds, drone-based computer vision, and machinery telemetry from John Deere, CLAAS, Fendt and Case systems via ISOXML and agrirouter — into a single dashboard for partial-area specific (teilflächenspezifische) crop management. Core products span the FarmBlick-Community subscription app, paid consulting and expert-support packages, fixed-price workshops on precision-farming topics, and project-based digital services including soil scanning, georeferenced soil sampling, application map creation, drone operations for fawn rescue and PV inspection, and construction-measure validation.

The company employs roughly a dozen staff at its Sulzfeld HQ and distributes through a bundesweites (nationwide) system-partner network in Germany — comprising contractors (Lohnunternehmer), machinery rings (Maschinenringe), cooperatives (Genossenschaften), dealers, and consultants — supplemented by direct sales, the self-serve Community app, and OEM co-marketing partnerships with RAUCH Landmaschinenfabrik (XactMap joint product, 2025) and Pessl Instruments (METOS sensor integration, 2025). Revenue is generated through a hybrid mix of professional services (one-off farm analyses at EUR 200, workshops at EUR 450-600, multi-hour expert support packages), recurring Community subscriptions bundled with consulting, and per-project digital service fees. Customers span an unusually wide size range — from 30-hectare family farms to 500,000-hectare operations — across arable, organic, mixed, and biogas-linked farming segments in Germany with claimed worldwide partner orders. The company is privately held, founder-controlled, and bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding rounds, and reports outcomes such as at-least-30% yield gains and up-to-70% resource optimization among farms practicing smart farming for 3+ years (survey of 75 farms).

Core offering

FarmBlick operates the FarmBlick-Community, a manufacturer-independent cloud-based smart farming platform that integrates satellite data, sensor telemetry, and AI-driven analytics for precision agriculture. The platform is complemented by independent agronomic consulting, training workshops, and digital field services including tractor-mounted soil scanning, georeferenced soil sampling, application map creation, and drone-based surveying for farmers and agricultural service providers.

Product overview

FarmBlick offers a platform-plus-services model centered on the FarmBlick-Community app and digital services for smart/precision farming. The core FarmBlick-Community platform provides farmers and system partners with a central dashboard integrating satellite imagery, weather station data, sensor readings, and field management tools. Supporting services include expert consulting, workshops, soil scanning, georeferenced soil sampling, application map creation, drone services (game rescue, construction inspection, PV inspection), and corn maze creation. The company has expanded through acquisitions (ISARIA plant sensors) and partnerships (XactMap with RAUCH, METOS data integration with Pessl Instruments) to create a comprehensive precision farming ecosystem.
