Foresight for
the mixed farm.

Premonto sends small farms an early warning on frost, drought, heat and pests, in their own language, with a suggestion for each crop.

Every farm has its own history of land, weather and harvests. Premonto is built around it.

What Premonto does

Premonto watches the weather, the soil and the season for each field on your farm. When frost, heat, a dry spell or a pest is on its way, it sends an early warning and suggests what can be done. It keeps a record of your farm every season, continually learning and building from it, so its warnings can match your fields more closely over time.

Forewarnings

Every farm that uses Premonto gets warnings for the hazards that matter to its crops: late frost, heatwaves, dry spells, heavy rain and pests. Each one comes with a suggestion and an honest note of how sure we are.

Towards polyculture

For farmers who want it, Premonto shows what is known about growing more crops side by side: which mixes and rotations have been tried in conditions like yours, what they cost to set up and which EU schemes help pay for them. The choice is yours.

In your language

Premonto speaks your language. Messages arrive on WhatsApp or as a text message. Phone calls are there for any farmer who wants to listen and talk through their recommendations.

How we use evidence

Premonto makes no claim it cannot back up. Warnings are built on published methods and public data, including Copernicus satellite imagery and national weather services. Every claim about polyculture points to the trials behind it.

Foresight began in a field.

The Etruscans told of Tages, a child who rose from a furrow near Tarquinia and taught them to read the signs. Premonto takes its name from the Latin praemoneo, to forewarn, a word Pliny the Elder used when writing about farming and weather signs.
