AgTech fact sheets

The following fact sheets have been created to help Victorian farmers who are not overly familiar with AgTech, to better understand:

• what various AgTech solutions are designed to do
• how the AgTech solutions achieve this
• why farmers might utilise these solutions
• the benefits the AgTech solution can offer farmers, and next steps in getting started.

While some of the technologies like weather stations, dashboards and agriculture drones are applicable to multiple farming types, others are more farm type specific (eg. activity collars, fruit penetrometers, mastitis test kits and milk vat monitoring).
