What it is
Soilmentor is a soil health monitoring app and platform designed for farmers to track soil observations, test results, and regenerative management progress over time. Users record field observations (earthworm counts, root depth, infiltration rate, aggregate stability), photograph soil profiles, and log management practices. The platform generates trend reports showing how soil health indicators change in response to management.
Why we picked this
Regenerative management requires monitoring to verify that practices are working. Soilmentor provides the simple, structured framework for recording observations that most farmers do not maintain on their own. The longitudinal tracking turns individual observations into trends, revealing whether soil biology is actually improving over seasons and years.
Key takeaways
- Soilmentor creates structured monitoring records that can demonstrate regenerative outcomes to landlords, buyers, and certification bodies.
- The platform's visual dashboards show multi-year trends in soil health indicators, making progress visible even when year-to-year changes are small.
- Integration with common soil testing laboratories allows users to combine field observations with lab data in a single platform.
