What is the On Farm
Connectivity Program?
The On Farm Connectivity Program helps Australian primary producers in agricultural, forestry and fisheries improve on-farm connectivity and adopt connected agricultural technology.
Round 3 has $10 million available nationally, with rebates of up to 50% of eligible expenditure. Rebates range from $1,000 to $20,000 per eligible Primary Producer ABN.
So, if there’s technology, monitoring or automation you’ve been wanting to introduce on your property, now is the time to put that wish list together and see what may be eligible. We’ll do the hard work. Register your details below and we can get started!
If everything looks good, we’ll get the ball rolling, talk through what you want to monitor, connect or control, and help work out the best solution for your farm.
Important: Rounds 1 and 2 utilised the funding quickly. If you're looking at installing telemetry on your farm, register now and get your quote ready for approval. OFCP Grant Opportunity Guidelines and eligibility

See live tank levels, bore status, pump operation, flow, pressure, battery voltage and other important information without having to drive out and check each site.
Control Equipment from Anywhere
Start or stop pumps, switch equipment on or off, change operating modes and send commands back to site remotely.
One View Across Your Property
Bring tanks, bores, pumps, irrigation systems and other remote assets into one easy-to-use dashboard, so you can see what is happening across multiple locations from one place.
Know When Something Goes Wrong
Receive alarms and notifications for low tank levels, pump faults, communication loss, abnormal pressures or other conditions that need attention.
See What Happened While You Were Away
