Reducing the challenges faced by livestock producers & broadacre farmers
How it all began
A few years ago, while I was taking photos with my drone, my father looked over my shoulder and said;
“If that could check the stock for me, I could stay on the farm longer.”
He’s 83 and still runs a thriving mixed livestock farm in NSW.
That simple comment sparked an idea. I started exploring user-friendly tech solutions that could help farmers like him reduce risks and increase efficiency in their day-to-day operations.
Today, our autonomous drone software is designed to do just that—making farm life a little easier while helping to boost efficiency and returns.
Implementing real-world, on the land experience to address the challenges farmers face via an all-in-one total farm monitoring solution.
