Add Vultus as partner for Farmbeats
Vultus makes precision farming tools using satellite data. With these tools, farmers can reduce their nitrogen fertilizer use by up to 1/3rd and increase their crop yields. They can also download precision variable-rate nitrogen prescriptions, straight from our satellites to their tractors.
Please look into partnering with this excellent company.

Integrate with low cost ($15) Wireless Soil Moisture Sensors
I recently started deploying low cost soil moisture sensors on our farm in South Africa (Pecan orchards) found the Ecowitt WH51 on Amazon for ~$15 per sensor. (8 x sensors can connect to each of Ecowitt GW1000 Wifi Gateway which is ~$30)
The gateway can be configured to send data to a custom server "talking" Wundergroud protocol.
Would be really great if the Ecowitt moisture monitoring data can somehow be fed into FarmBeats.
Having 8 x moisture sensor monitoring points, within a 120 meter radius, for ~$150 feeding into FarmBeats would be really great.

Add " demo/test" devices
Many devices like MXchip, ESP2866, Raspberry etc. can be added to Azure. By providing manuals/scripts to add these to farmbeats it is easy to demonstrate how it works based on cheap demo-type hardware.
My MXchip communicates with Azure already but is impossible for me to find how to ingest the data into Farmbeats.
Most customers and resellers do not want to invest in "supported hardware" just to see how it works.

Include microwave imagery in farmbeats
Why microwave data is not included in farm beat? Satellite images are more costly, so every one is looking for less cost images like microwaves.

FarmBeats on Azure Stack Edge
Would love to see some of the Azure Services running FarmBeats avaialble as IoT Edge devices that can be ran on Azure Stack Edge. I could see some valid use cases for this now that the newer Azure Stack Edges are being released and the availablity of clustering and Kubernetes.
