The Product
Throughout our history we’ve been known to develop award-winning solutions, and now we’re working on the next. Named eShepherd, this future farm technology is all about wearable tech for livestock, enabling them to be tracked and monitored. From the comfort of the homestead, farmers can use the eShepherd web and mobile app to draw virtual paddocks and automatically move their animals. This allows farmers to automate advanced grazing techniques, improving productivity and profitability.
One of our values is a commitment to a better tomorrow. Farmers have the responsibility to feed the world, and we’re right there with them, helping them to do so more sustainably. Our goal is to lead farm automation and management and we’re delighted to have received recognition by winning our category in the 2020 IoT Awards.
This is a solution to be proud of, and we’re confident joining our team will be a career highlight.
