Sourcing the best technology and solutions for you, is what gets me out of bed each day. Travelling regularly to China, and every second year to Hannover, Germany for Agritechnica keeps me abreast of what's ready and refined for Australian farming conditions. You might be surprised that there's Chinese options that are refined, cost effective and equal to any for Australian conditions. Having sourced tech internationally for 25 years, firstly from the USA back with gps-Ag and more recently the Netherlands with WEED-IT I feel confident in gauging the overseas market.
Originally a farm boy from the Wimmera, a lifetime in Ag has served me well, learning from the best farmers on the planet, right here in AUSTRALIA.
Educated at Melbourne Uni completing a bachelor and some years later a Masters of Ag engineering in the UK fostered my critical thinking around Ag machinery with my specialty being spraying.
But there’s no better teacher than grower feedback, honesty and good old Aussie know how. It’s my relationships with Australian growers over my lifetime in Ag going back to the first auto steer in the 1999 that I treasurer.
My goal's to bring you evidence based opinions to guide your choice of guidance and autonomous options. To be working with Jim Castles again and Joe, with the support of Robyn I’m looking forward to this exciting chapter embracing the current GPS landscape. When not working I’m chasing the big fish in Sea Pig!
