Re-thinking agriculture for a sustainable future

CropScale are a farm management group with deep expertise in cost-efficient broadacre cropping, crop monitoring and paddock mapping technology, infrastructure development, software platform development, and value-add supply chains.

CropScale’s unique approach leverages NT Top-End ‘boots in the dirt’ experience with climate-proven technologies and significant asset and infrastructure investment.

What is Regenerative Agriculture?

Regenerative agriculture prioritises cropping strategies that add organic matter and biodiversity to soil, leading to a more resilient ecosystem. This practice involves techniques including crop rotation, cover cropping, reduced tillage, and integrating livestock manures. Regenerative methodologies structured for the Northern Territory result in a self-sustaining agricultural system that not only produces more nutritious food but also sequesters carbon in the soil, and when combined with our technology platform reduces reliance on external fertiliser inputs.

A more profitable model for agriculture at-scale

CropScale has developed a broadacre farming methodology specifically for large-scale (>2,000 hectare) operations designed to increase crop margins, farm profitability, and reduce input costs.

Regenerative agriculture and maximising shareholder value are not opposites!

Our Approach

  • We employ a data-driven “monitor, measure, report, learn” strategy to ensure crop health and yield management down to individual plant level monitoring.

  • Applying centimetre-level 4D mapping technologies, real-time IoT soil and crop monitoring tools, satellite broadband connectivity, and crop-specific software platforms to improve soil ecology, improve crop-yield outcomes and reduce input requirements and cost.

  • Building a smart, end to end regenerative, rotational agri system that maximises crop yield year round and delivers cost efficient production processing from farm to supermarket.

  • Together with our investment partners, we’ve combined the region’s best agronomists, technologists, data scientists and boardroom expertise to achieve our mission of making agriculture at scale in the Northern Territory both sustainable and highly profitable while enhancing the rural communities in which we operate.

Natural nitrogen nodules on our rotation crops replenish soil nutrients reducing the need for external supplements.

Championing organic, natural broadacre row cropping

At CropScale, we focus on replenishing nutrients naturally through smart crop rotation that improves land microbiome, creating new areas of native flora and fauna that attracts native pest controllers, and utilising real-time technology to target specific areas of a crop, even at individual plant level rather than a ‘spray all’ approach.

This model uses fewer chemicals and is more cost effective and results in higher yields and higher profits.

CropScale’s methodology is good for business, good for the community and good for the environment.
