When using the DataFarming platform make sure you check for cloud or shaddow before getting NDVI as it will affect readings significantly. Click the cloud icon on each date and it displays true colour image.
At @data_farming we have released our STACK tool. You should see it pop up when you log on. It allows you to STACK 5 years of satellite #NDVI data together to get long-term productivity zones, which you can then export out as a prescription shapefile. Only $0.60/ha. Check it out!
