Brian Sutton, Founder HindsightN
Who We Are
Hindsight Nitrogen is the brainchild of 5th generation Indiana farmer, pilot, and inventor, Brian Sutton. He understands the benefit of field scouting and the devastation crop disease can cause for a farm family and their operation’s profitability. Sutton noticed that when a corn crop is most vulnerable to problems, it’s also the toughest to ground scout. The intervention window is very small, and reactions must come quickly. Launched in 2010, HindsightN leverages imagery collected via fixed wing manned aircraft to build precision prescriptions to maximize profitability. Sutton’s work, of over a decade, has resulted in a stunning breakthrough in agricultural aerial imagery.
