What are SWAT MAPS?

Soil, Water, and Topography (SWAT) MAPS are high-resolution soil foundation maps used to execute variable rate fertilizer, seed, soil amendment, pesticide, or precision water management. They are created using our patented process.

Soil

Factors such as soil texture, organic matter, topsoil depth, and salinity can all impact yield and fertilizer response.

Water

Water has the biggest influence on yield and fertilizer response. SWAT MAPS categorizes dry and wet areas in your field into ten different management zones.

Topography

Topography is described by landscape positions in a field (hilltops, mid-slopes, and depressions). Topography can influence soil moisture, erosion, organic matter levels, pH, and soil fertility levels.

The SWAT Zones

All SWAT MAPS are made up of ten zones. Having 10 different zones accommodates variability in your field.

The Swat Ecosystem

Here's How It Works

The Foundation

The foundation of the SWAT ECOSYSTEM is our SWAT RECORDS software. SWAT ACADEMY is our online learning platform providing service providers with the training needed to become SWAT CERTIFIED. Finally, the SWAT SUPPORT portal serves as a resource with access to our team of experts.

Soil Potential

Everything starts in the soil. SWAT MAPS service providers execute this 6-step process to unlock their farmers’ soil potential.

Yield Potential

Crop variability is influenced by the stable soil properties captured by a SWAT MAP. The Soil Potential portion of the process must be completed before the yield potential process can begin.
The SWAT ECOSYSTEM provides everything you need to fully take advantage of SWAT MAPS

The Foundation

The foundation of the SWAT ECOSYSTEM is built on SWAT RECORDS, with the help of SWAT SUPPORT and SWAT ACADEMY.

Soil Potential

Everything starts in the soil. SWAT MAPS service providers execute this 6-step process to unlock their farmers’ soil potential.

Yield Potential

The 6-step yield potential process can be completed once soil potential is unlocked.
