As part of our social responsibility in addressing water scarcity and climate change, the free RAYSAT public platform provides crop water requirement estimates to support water conservation and serve farmers, with ongoing platform development and updates.
Use the public platformThe free RAYSAT sowing calendar enables farmers to monitor conditions for sowing rainfed wheat across Syria using satellite and weather analysis, reducing the risks of unsuitable sowing dates and supporting climate-resilient agriculture. Results are updated with new analysis runs. Soil moisture must be checked in the field before sowing.
Use the sowing calendarRAYSAT turns weather, satellite and field data into practical recommendations that answer four key questions:
The system also includes advanced remote sensing analysis to support review and follow-up.
Explore the scientific and operational frameworkTrack crop development and condition throughout the season.
Monitor stress indicators and changes within the field.
Assess spatial variability and irrigation uniformity.
Estimate expected yield indicators.
Identify problem areas and guide field inspections.
Trial applications have shown a strong ability to detect spatial and temporal changes and support field monitoring and decision-making.
Practical engineering support for agricultural projects and irrigation networks, alongside training and knowledge transfer.
Irrigation network design, hydraulic studies and selection of suitable pumps.
Assessment, troubleshooting and rehabilitation of existing irrigation networks.
Preparation of requirements and technical specifications for irrigation equipment.
Studies and advice on the transition to renewable energy in irrigation projects.
Supply of irrigation and solar energy equipment to suit project specifications.
Specialised training courses and programmes.
