Practical and advanced innovation to the agriculture sector
We are committed to solve problems and make life better for farmers and the agriculture sector. They are our customers, and we have great respect for them. We want to do them good.
The tool we use to fulfil this aspiration is technology. Technology nowadays is snowballing in areas like big data analytics, internet of things, robotics, integration automation and the orchestration of processes. We are experts in these things for our customer’s sake.
With this singular focus, we know that we will add value and have a place.
WE ARE
Developing Brilliant Tech
We have developed a super efficient and high-quality solution for Pasture Measurement. How we do it is a trade secret, but we have achieved the following:
- Successful proof of concept trials that proves our software solution matches the accuracy of traditional methods of Pasture Measurement to prioritise pastures for feeding livestock.
- Performed trial runs in less time than that a ‘tow behind’ solution.
WE ARE
Committed to Superlative Service
When all is said and done, the only thing that matters in business is that you provide a service that the client value. That will open the door for repeat business. Once you have turnover, you can enhance your efficiency, but getting and retaining business is of utmost importance. We are held accountable for the promises we make and we recognise that our customer holds our future in their hands. We are committed to providing X-factor service.
WE ARE

Investment in the agricultural sector is at an all-time high and set to increase with the increase of demand for food. It is the lifeblood, almost literally, of today’s society. Internationally the agricultural sector has billions invested in it annually. The players in the industry are continually scrambling to achieve higher efficiency and are always on the lookout for new technology and developments that will help them improve their outcomes.

HOW WE DO WHAT WE DO
What to Expect When We
Measure Your
Pasture
STEP 1
Making a booking
Our partner websites offer related services that you may already be using. All you do is click on the link provided, fill out your details and make arrangements for us to visit you. With our first visit, our aim is to fully understand your needs. Once we know your needs, we agree on a good time for a setup meeting.
STEP 2
Setup Visit
During the setup visit, we work out with you where we can operate on your farm and which pastures you need us to measure. After this point, it becomes mostly automatic, and we do not require your time other than to let us know of changes in your requirements. Once we complete the setup, we are ready for the automated measurement of your pastures.
STEP 3
Pasture Measurements
The setup meeting and subsequent flight planning will ready us to be able to measure your pastures in record time and with little interference of your daily operations. From then on we drive on to your farm, fly the drone and load up the data as soon as. Scheduling and schedule changes get managed by AgriDrone.nz’s smart central job management system.
STEP 4
Receiving Your Reports
During Version 1 of our software, one will upload the data acquired by the drone to the cloud and then process it so that it is in your email inbox later that evening. Version 2 and later will shorten the turn around between measuring your pasture and you getting the up to date reports.
