**We're building an Ag-Tech network in the Great Southern!**

The [Stirlings to Coast Farmers](http://www.scfarmers.org.au/) (SCF) grower group based in Albany Western Australia is currently enabling digital agriculture coverage through their [Smart Farms Initiative](http://www.scfarmers.org.au/smart-farm-initiative). Under the initiative, the group is looking at road-testing a range of digital tools which could help improve farm efficiencies and farm production, particularly in variable climates. Some of the technologies being roadtested include
_GPS Tracking,_ Rainfall monitoring,
_Automatic Weather Stations,_ Soil Moisture probes
* Tank level Monitoring.

To find out more about the initiative, please contact SCF Smart Farms Coordinator Philip Honey on 0428 768 589.
