This is what a SMART farm could look like.
The next big thing at PARG is the launch of the SMART Farm concept. To demonstrate the concept a new website has been developed at www.une.edu.au/smart . The UNE SMART Farm is to be implemented on the UNE rural property “Kirby” and will involve sensor networks and autonomous data collection which all feed back to a central server throught the NBN. Consultants will be able to access and manipulate the data to provide feedback straight to the farm office enabling the farmer to implemment PA technology with minimal out of paddock downtime.
