BACK PADDOCK
Australia
Back Paddock is a mobile app based monitoring solution which allows Aussie farmers to keep track of their fields and log their daily activities. The app provides a map of the farm, with the ability to keep diary notes for each field, as well as tracking spray recommendations and weather conditions. Farmers can also take photos or videos of fields to record conditions and monitor changes over time. This makes organising work for the growing season much more convenient, and allows businesses to keep track of all activity on the farm. Back Paddock also works without cell service, storing all data until users are back on wifi. It reduces the need for unnecessary paperwork, and ensures all information is kept conveniently in a single place.
