FAQs
AgTech Finder is a free and independent online platform that helps Australian farmers find the right agtech solution for their business. Farmers have access to educational resources, such as practical advice and a podcast, a company directory, product catalogue, and comparison tool to ensure they can make confident technology decisions.
AgTech Finder is an initiative led by Food Agility CRC, a trusted agrifood innovation hub that’s helping Australia’s agrifood industry to become more globally competitive and sustainable.
AgTech Finder was made possible through the support provided by IAG, KPMG, National Farmers Federation, MLA and AgriFutures.
We have just commenced the AgTech Finder journey and will be looking at a range of ways to enhance the site and provide users with more and more value over time. If you have any great suggestions to help us on this journey, we would love to hear from you. Please feel free to send through any comments to the AgTech Finder team directly via agtechfinder@foodagility.com
AgTech Finder will be a continuously evolving service for the Australian agricultural community. The first website (2019-2024) offered farmers the ability to search, sort and compare commercially available agtech solutions.
The latest version of the website was launched in 2024. New additions to this site included:
- Completely refreshed search functionality, giving farmers a better chance of finding the right technology. This process saw a change in focus areas and solution types.
- A full review of the companies and products listed on the website. This process saw approximately 35 companies and products removed from AgTech Finder, due to a range of factors including the company no longer existing, or the product being superceded.
- A ‘Vendor Portal’, allowing technology companies listed on the site to self-manage their profile. As per above, the team recognised the need to provide companies the ability to update their listings independently.
- An events calendar to promote upcoming agricultural events in Australia and abroad. All events are compatible with Google Calendar, Outlook, and Apple iCal.
- The ability to download the comparison list of similar technology solutions. This is accessed via a printable pdf download.
- The ability for companies to list customer reviews, and to showcase any verifications, including ACMA certification and compliance with the Australian Farm Data Code.
At its core, AgTech Finder is a collaborative platform. If you would like to get involved in its development and expansion, please email the team at info@agtechfinder.com
