farms of the future

Connected farms are smart farms

In 2023 Pairtree was selected to be an official Farms of the Future (FotF) Agtech Program Partner by the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) in a program designed to educate farmers and increase the uptake of agriculture technologies (agtech) to improve efficiencies and productivity.

In 2025 we’re proud to be selected by the NSW DPI one again, as part of the FotF Agtech Toolbox, an online resource designed to assist farmers along on their agtech journey.

We’re also proud of the fact that we were there from the very beginning, playing a key role in the Farms of the Future pilot project back in 2020.

Pilot Project stories...

Three farms tested a wide range of agtech so other producers could do on-site and virtual tours, and the farmers could provide invaluable insights and feedback about their experiences to help shape the program.

Pairtree was called on to centralise data from 20 different types of devices, from eight different suppliers, on four different networks (LoRaWAN, Wi-Fi, cellular and satellite) at the three different farms.

By using Pairtree dashboards the farmers could access, view and understand data feeds from all the devices more easily.

This included water tank, trough, bore level and irrigation monitors, soil moisture probes, in crop senors, remote weather stations, video surveillance, in paddock cattle weighing & monitoring and more.

Since then, we’ve worked tirelessly to enhance and refine our service. Our farm data dashboard, Pairtree Plus is the result. We now offer connections to 100+ agtech device and service supplier’s data.

Watch the three FotF pilot farmers discuss their experiences using different agtech, with all the data integrated on a Pairtree dashboard.
