Farmdar

Farmdar is an agritech company founded in 2021 in Lahore, Pakistan, that applies artificial intelligence and satellite imagery to agricultural crop monitoring. It was created to give agribusinesses and lenders reliable, field-level crop data across regions where ground surveys are slow and costly, and has since expanded operations into Singapore and Thailand.

The platform maps crop location, acreage and variety from satellite data, then layers on yield prediction, disease and pest risk, and soil moisture analysis. Sugar mills, seed and fertilizer companies, and financial institutions use Farmdar’s modules to plan sourcing, price contracts and score lending risk, with coverage reported across more than 500 million acres to date.
