Farm & ranch technology
Technology that grows with the land.
CMR Technologies helps working farms and ranches put modern technology to work, from smart barns and on-site weather monitoring to two platforms in development: Connected Rancher for livestock management and FertigAIte for precision conservation.
Rooted in a working cattle and horse ranch in Delta County, Texas.
Connected Rancher · In development
Every head, from calving to the sale barn.
Connected Rancher is a complete livestock management system for cow-calf operations. It brings records, costs, and local market insight together, so every decision about your herd starts with real numbers.
Calving
Every birth recorded the day it happens: dam, sire, date, and the details you’ll want later.
Herd records
One history per animal that follows it from the pasture to the pens to the trailer.
Cost per head
Feed, vet, and other expenses tied back to each animal, so you know what it really costs to raise.
Sale barn insight
Local market trends next to your own numbers, so you can decide when to sell with confidence.
FertigAIte · In development
Precision conservation, from rain cloud to root zone.
FertigAIte is designed to bring water, nutrients, energy, and pasture insight together in one system, so every input goes where the land actually needs it.
Make every gallon count
Capture and use water more efficiently, so the operation holds up through dry spells and depends less on outside supply.
Irrigate by need, not by timer
Water goes where and when each part of the pasture needs it, based on conditions on the ground.
Targeted nutrients
Fertility applied by need instead of by habit, for less waste, less runoff, and better forage.
See the whole pasture
Remote sensing that shows forage health across the property, so problems surface before you can see them from the truck.
Energy-independent by design
Built to run on on-site renewable power, including in places the grid doesn’t reach.
Built to replicate
Designed as a deployable platform, not a one-off, so it can scale to other ranches, farms, and conservation projects.
Where we are
The road to the first pilot.
FertigAIte is in active development. Here’s where things stand, updated as each milestone is reached.
01
Concept & system design
Architecture, conservation goals, and the security model are defined.
Complete
02
Conservation funding
Pursuing conservation program support to fund the pilot build.
In progress
03
Pilot build
Installation on The Connected M Ranch in Delta County, Texas.
Planned
04
Field validation
Real seasons and real cattle, measured against a clear baseline.
Planned
05
Early access
Opening to a small group of partner operations.
Planned
Proving ground
Built for where the work actually happens.
Every CMR tool will run on our own ground first. The Connected M Ranch is our planned proving site, with real cattle, real horses, and real Texas summers. If it doesn’t hold up there, it doesn’t ship.
- Designed to align with NRCS conservation practices
- Sensors, controls, and data secured from day one
- Built to be read from the tailgate, not a control room

Technology consulting
Put your barns, fields, and data to work.
Hands-on help planning, installing, and connecting the technology that makes a working operation run smoother, from smart barns to on-site weather monitoring.
Smart barn automation
Lights, fans, switches, and plugs that run on schedules and conditions instead of someone walking out to flip them.
Weather-driven control
On-site weather stations and sensors that feed real conditions into how your equipment runs.
Connected across the property
Reliable connections from the house to the barns and beyond, so devices stay online where you need them.
Secure & dependable
Set up right from the start, with protected accounts and devices, sensible backups, and systems that keep working.
Let’s put your land — and your data — to work.
Whether you want your barns to run themselves or you’re curious about Connected Rancher and FertigAIte, a 30-minute conversation is the best place to start.
