Drought Resilience: Empowering Australian Farmers with Cutting-Edge Technology with TEKFARM® |
|
|
Welcome to the first Farmers2Founders TEKFARM® newsletter!
TEKFARM® is all about making agtech work for producers and over the past year, we’ve been busy doing just that. From drones in the scrub to soil sensors in vineyards, we’re helping producers across Australia adopt smart, practical technologies that boost drought resilience and improve everyday efficiency. Our network of trusted advisors plays a critical role in this process. They understand local conditions and work closely with producers to ensure each technology is well matched, properly supported during setup, and followed up with feedback - because true adoption is about long-term impact. Through this newsletter, we’ll be sharing articles, case studies, and real-story highlights from our work across the country including updates on the agtech solutions we’re trialling, stories from the paddock, and upcoming events where you can connect with us. |
