Apps and digital tools aren’t just for desk workers, there are apps designed specifically for farmers to help streamline your farming processes which saves you time and money. 


MYOB: when you’re out and about on the farm, it’s helpful to manage accounts on the move. MYOB enables 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 admin, worker contracts, sick leave, holiday requests, and enables farmers to track staff hours.
