FieldX review
A focused agronomy toolkit for scouting, GPS sampling, and equation-based fertilizer prescriptions.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
FieldX brings crop scouting, field records, GPS-guided soil sampling, and variable-rate fertilizer prescriptions into a toolkit for agronomists and growers. Its capabilities span field observations, crop activities, customizable scouting templates, and reporting, with historical records, weather information, and satellite imagery available for observations. Grower subaccounts let growers view and enter field records. The product is a fit for agronomy teams that need these field workflows; it is less suited to buyers seeking a broad farm-management platform.
Plan choice determines which applications are included. Technician costs $275 per user per year and includes mobile, Journal, Sampling, and GeoNotes. Essentials is $600 per user per year, with Office, Dashboard, and a choice of Scouting, Sampling, or GeoNotes. Agronomist costs $900 per user per year and includes Office, Mobile, Journal, Sampling, GeoNotes, and Dashboard. Grower Sub-Account and Agronomist + FieldX VRT are priced by quote. An Enhanced Weather add-on is $200 per user per year for FieldX Office on Windows PC, displaying GDUs, HSUs, rainfall, and daily historical field weather. A 30-day trial is available; no refunds are provided.
The mix of web, Windows PC, iPhone, and iPad applications supports office and field work, while deployment spans cloud, desktop, and mobile. FieldX VRT is the distinctive option for agronomists turning soil or management-zone data into equation-based prescription maps. Before choosing Essentials, consider whether its single selected module covers the required work; teams needing the full set may prefer Agronomist. Buyers looking for expansive farm-platform coverage should compare alternatives, while teams centered on scouting, sampling, and VRA prescriptions have a clearer match here.
