When you think of apps, you probably think of social media apps, but there are apps designed specifically for agriculture to help you streamline your farming processes. As a farmer, you can benefit from these apps that are tailored to your specific needs and challenges, such as managing crops, livestock, weather, markets, and more. By using these apps, you can optimize your farming operations and increase your efficiency and profitability.
Here are five apps you can use to help digitise your farm.
Xero
When you’re out and about on the farm, it’s helpful to be able to manage accounts on the move. Xero helps you to invoice and reconcile accounts on your phone and keep track of key financial information in a simple format.
Figured
Can help farmers navigate crucial tasks such as forecasting, financial management, wage budgeting, repairs, and maintenance.
Cloud Farmer
Allows you to ditch the notebooks and mountains of paper. Stay organised with everything you need in one place. Save time by entering farm records such as paddock records, stock records, agrichemical inventory, repairs and maintenance and a jobs list.
PaySauce
Simplify business calculations and let employees file their timesheets digitally. PaySauce also helps with record keeping and automates staff payments.
BrightHR
Helps farm owners and managers take care of staff administration, worker contracts, sick leave, holiday requests, and enables farmers to track staff hours.
If you’re not a fan of tech, remember you don’t need to be a tech expert to use the apps – they have simple and easy to use interfaces and have been designed for people working on a farm. Digitisation can help you save time, money and reduce stress!
