Tailored Farm Plans and Management Guidance

Optimise your business using our online decision tools or get in touch and let one of our experienced team members do it for you.

The Farm Optimiser is our most advanced decision tool aimed at helping you understand your farm system and make informed decisions. For example, if you were thinking about including some Lucerne in your rotation on a waterlogged paddock. You could switch the Lucerne land use on and play with the various inputs to examine under what circumstances it is profitable, how profitable it is and what management changes can be made to maximise return (e.g. increasing stocking rate).

This is the most detailed farm planning tool available. Under the hood, Farm Optimiser is a whole-farm bio-economical optimisation model that encompasses biological and economic relationships for the entire farm system. Including components of soils, rotations, crops, pastures and novel feeds, livestock, stubble, supplementary feeding, machinery, labour and finance. Farm Optimiser is underpinned by decades of scientific work and has been widely applied and validated in the research sector (e.g., Young et al., 2022 and Young et al., 2023).
