How to Use the Agro MCP in LlamaIndex
Index live agricultural data directly into your LlamaIndex RAG applications.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Agro MCP to LlamaIndex
Create your Vinkius account to connect Agro to LlamaIndex and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Index live soil and weather metrics
Agro exposes tools for gathering field-level climate and terrain data. Your LlamaIndex application calls `get_current_soil` and immediately embeds the resulting moisture and temperature readings into a vector store. Users query the index to find out exactly when a specific field last dried out. Adding historical context takes one more step. The agent runs `get_historical_weather` and stores decades of precipitation data alongside your internal agronomy PDFs. When someone asks about drought conditions, the system pulls from actual API records instead of guessing.
Build a searchable polygon database with MCP
Managing farm boundaries becomes a queryable knowledge base. You define areas using `create_polygon`, and LlamaIndex tracks these spatial definitions in its document store. Retrieving info for a specific plot happens automatically when the agent triggers `get_polygon`. Linking these geometries to imagery searches creates a powerful RAG setup. The `search_imagery` tool finds satellite passes over your indexed polygons. Those metadata results get chunked and indexed, allowing users to ask natural language questions about satellite coverage.
Track crop health indexes over time
Vegetation indexes tell you how well crops are growing. The `get_ndvi_history` tool pulls EVI and NDVI values for your fields, which LlamaIndex then synthesizes into searchable summaries. Agronomists ask the agent to compare last year's yield with the indexed NDVI charts. You control exactly what the agent can access. By applying an allowed tools filter, you restrict the system to only use `get_accumulated_precipitation` and `get_accumulated_temperature`. This keeps the index focused strictly on climate factors.
