GIA along with Applied Horticultural Research, Hitachi, Freshcare, Growcom, AUSVEG, Australian Banana Growers Council and the Australian Macadamia Society have teamed up to deliver this project.

To help growers drive benefits from the latest smart technologies, this project will spotlight a series of on-site digital data monitoring points where the collected information is fed to and stored in a central computer and demonstrate how it can be utilised.

Facilitated by Smart Farming Project Officer, David Hunt, the webinar will also include video from the pilot ‘smart farm’ production nursery where the technology is currently being successfully trialled.

Register today to find out how this project could help enhance proactive decision making, improved production efficiencies, optimal labour uses and environmental performance within production nurseries.
