14.01.2022 Using Platfarm to spread variable rate compost on our testing vineyard in McLaren Vale today. Optimising our $4k budget by targeting the weaker areas with 32m3/Ha and the better areas just getting a maintenance rate of 8m3/Ha

13.01.2022 Drought, water shortages, well meaning but misguided technologists, unwelcome government intervention, and bushfires. Sounds like an article about #agtech in Australia right? Not this time. Late last year Platfarm's CEO Oli Madgett hired a pink Cadillac and hit the road to visit San Francisco and Napa, California. His reflections have just been published in Febs edition of The Australian and New Zealand Grapegrower & Winemaker magazine.... https://winetitles.com.au/wildfires-water-insecurity-and-g/

06.01.2022 Platfarm is having a slight case of tractor envy at Wine Tech 2019! Please drop in to see us at stand V8 to help turn aerial insights into practical action

04.01.2022 Congratulations to SproutX friends Provenir on the launch of their crowdfunding campaign. An excellent way to get out in the market, and you get to support a new business and buy their great product! Processing is a weak link in the Australian supply and export chain, localised processors increase competition and give specialist and artisan producers choice and better market options. ... The Platfarm team wishes them success!

04.01.2022 We now have high resolution imagery for the Langhorne Creek region Both the standard imagery and vigour imagery can be accessed via Platfarm, which is an app that helps growers to direct and track the work they carry out https://vimeo.com/311736027 Platfarm has been designed to assist growers to:... - View vigour imagery and have simple to use drawing tools to create prescription maps (for example to direct where to spread mulch, or for variable rate composting) - Track work that's carried out so that growers paint in their vineyard as they spray them, to ensure full coverage - Drop pins to identify where there are things that need attention (broken wires / posts / irrigation) - Out in the vineyard Platfarm acts like a sat nav directing when to start or stop work or change rate. The link to the Langhorne Creek micro site to initially draw in your blocks and decide whether you want to purchase additional vigour imagery is at: https://tools.platfarm.com/ Growers can access the standard imagery for free, and can choose to purchase high resolution vigour imagery at $24/Ha. Platfarm is available to use for free for growers in Langhorne Creek during the 2019/20 season

02.01.2022 Great Sunday read on the future of humanity + the poss futures we can create. Imagine a future of agriculture where costs fall by 10x / production processes an order of magnitude more efficient / using 90% fewer natural resources with 10x-100x less waste! https://static1.squarespace.com//RethinkX+Humanity+Report.
