40–50%
of plantation production cost is fertilizer
And rising. Most of it never lands where it’s needed.
For oil palm plantations, orchards, and vineyards
Higher quality. Greater productivity. Every hectare on your dashboard.
We ran a two-year closed beta with one of the world’s largest sustainable palm oil producers. It is now open to everyone: Fertilizing-as-a-Service for oil palm, and smart-spray kits for orchard and vineyard growers.

- FaaS pilots for oil palm, smart-spray kits for orchards & vineyards
The problem
Plantation operations run without visibility, on margins that keep shrinking.
Every operation we visit manages four pressures at once: fertilizer, labor, weather, and visibility.
24% fewer
skilled field workers than ten years ago
Finding and keeping an experienced crew gets harder every season.
3–5 days
weather windows for critical operations
These windows get shorter every season. Miss the window and you miss the year.
None
of the work is visible to head office in real time
Once the equipment leaves the yard, the only records are paper notes and memory.
What changes for you
Three things change when EarthSense runs on your land.
More from the same order
Lower input cost
Per-tree dosing puts each kilo on an active root zone instead of on bare ground or a vacant point.
Consistent, pass after pass
Higher work quality
Your drivers stay the same. The dose gets more uniform, and the records match what happened in the field.
Every pass timestamped
Audit-ready by default
Your buyers, certifiers, and lenders ask for these records. SmartSpread writes them as you work.
How it works
One AI brain. Engineered for palm and vine.
Terra AI reaches your land in three ways. TerraMax drives itself on palm. SmartSpread retrofits onto the palm tractors you already run. SmartSpray bolts onto your own orchard or vineyard sprayer.
Layer 01 · The intelligence
Terra AI
Terra AI drives every EarthSense machine. It needs no RTK GPS and no internet, and it works in the dust, slope, and canopy where consumer AI fails. It has run on working plantations since 2018.
- Drives without RTK GPS
- Runs fully offline
- Knows your trees
- Adapts to terrain
- Reports every pass
- Hardware-agnostic stack
Layer 2 · Powered by Terra AI
What a pilot looks like
Three steps. Your land. Measured results.
Step 01
Map your blocks with us
We walk your most important land together and look at your inputs, costs, application windows, and labor. These are the numbers your finance team tracks.
Step 02
We run TerraMax or SmartSpread
TerraMax or SmartSpread runs on the blocks you choose, with drivers we train. We log every pass, so the before-and-after is clear.
Step 03
See it. Scale what works.
You see cost per ton, quality, throughput, and audit records on one dashboard. Then you scale what works.
