Agribusiness software: paddock, spray & harvest records

Agribusiness: every paddock's history in one place. Spray it, log it, done.

Spray records live in a notebook on the dash, paddock history lives in the manager's head and an audit means days digging through paperwork. We build paddock, spray, harvest and compliance systems for agribusinesses that work on the phone without reception. Then we host them and look after them.

Looking for farm record keeping software that actually gets used in the paddock?

An agribusiness is a grower, a contractor boss, a compliance officer and a sales desk all at once. The records that matter get written on a dusty notebook, a spray tank lid or the back of a fuel docket. Then someone sits up at night retyping them into a spreadsheet before the buyer audit.

Wollopit builds custom agribusiness software around how your operation actually runs. Log a spray job on the phone at the tank and it records the product, rate, weather and operator against the paddock. Harvest loads tie back to the block they came off. Audits become a report you print instead of a week you lose. We connect the platforms you already trust like AgriWebb, Agworld and Xero, fill the gaps between them and host the lot on our own servers.

01The problems

What we hear from agribusinesses

Does your agribusiness have these problems? Here's how we'd fix them.

Most agribusinesses we talk to are flat out growing the thing. The record keeping happens in whatever's handy, right up until the auditor or the buyer asks for it.

  • The problemSpray records in a notebook on the dashProduct, rate and time scrawled on a page that gets wet, lost or left in the other ute.
    How we fix itSpray records on the phone with products, rates, water volume, weather and operator, saved even with no reception.
  • The problemPaddock history lives in one person's headAsk what went on Block 7 three seasons ago and the only answer is 'ask Dave'.
    How we fix itA timeline for every paddock: plantings, sprays, fertiliser, soil tests, yields and notes, back as far as your records go.
  • The problemAudits take daysFreshcare, LPA or a buyer's audit means pulling apart filing boxes and chasing missing entries.
    How we fix itAudit-ready reports pulled from the records you already keep, with gaps flagged weeks before the auditor turns up.
  • The problemWithholding periods tracked on memoryStock or produce nearly goes out before the withholding period is up because nobody checked the spray date.
    How we fix itWithholding and re-entry periods worked out from every application, with a clear or hold status on every paddock and mob.
  • The problemHarvest loads scattered everywhereWeighbridge tickets in the truck, bin numbers on a whiteboard and yields stuck in the header's own software.
    How we fix itHarvest logs linking every load to its paddock, with weights, quality results and where it went.
  • The problemThe chem shed is a guessYou find out you're out of a product on the morning you need it. The shed register hasn't been touched since winter.
    How we fix itChem and fertiliser stock that drops as sprays are logged, with batch numbers, SDS links and reorder alerts.
  • The problemStaff instructions get lostJobs handed out at smoko, half heard over the tractor and done on the wrong block.
    How we fix itTask lists on staff phones with the paddock map, the job sheet and a tick when it's done.
  • The problemSeasonal crews on paperPickers and casuals start Monday and the inductions, tickets and timesheets are all on clipboards.
    How we fix itOnline inductions, licence and ticket records, QR sign-in and timesheets that flow through to payroll.
  • The problemMachinery servicing slipsHours tick over, services get missed and the header breaks down in the middle of harvest.
    How we fix itA machinery register with hours, service intervals, breakdown logs and alerts before a service falls due.
  • The problemBuyers want proofProcessors and packers ask for spray records and traceability. You send a phone photo of a notebook.
    How we fix itA buyer portal or one-click traceability pack showing where it was grown, what went on it and when.
  • The problemNobody knows what a paddock really costDiesel goes in from the farm tank with no record and inputs get lumped together at tax time.
    How we fix itFuel and input logs per machine and paddock, feeding paddock costings and fuel tax credit records into Xero or MYOB.
  • The problemMultiple farms, multiple spreadsheetsThree properties, two trusts and a lease block, each with its own spreadsheet that never agrees.
    How we fix itOne system across every property and entity, with each farm's records kept separate and the whole picture in one view.

03The systems

The big ones

Your whole operation, on one system.

These are the systems agribusinesses ask us about most. Each one works on its own and they get properly clever when they're joined up.

Paddock records

Every paddock's history, one tap away.

Each block gets its own page on the map with crop, area, soil and a full timeline of everything that's happened to it. New staff can see what went on last season without ringing anyone.

  • Paddocks drawn on Google Maps
  • Area, crop, variety and soil type
  • Full timeline per paddock
  • Soil and tissue test results
  • Rotation planning by season
  • Photos and notes from the field
  • Works offline and syncs later
  • Multiple properties in one view

Spray diaries

Log the spray at the tank, not at the kitchen table.

Operators pick the paddock, product and rate on their phone and the weather fills itself in. The record is complete before the boom's folded and the chem shed stock drops on its own.

  • Product, rate and water volume
  • Wind, temp and Delta T captured
  • Operator and machine recorded
  • Nozzle and boom setup
  • Withholding and re-entry periods
  • Chem stock updated automatically
  • Records saved with no reception
  • Permit and label notes attached

Harvest logs

Every load traced back to the block it came off.

Header, chaser bin and truck loads get logged as they happen with weights, moisture and destination. At the end of the day you know yields by paddock without waiting for the weighbridge pile to be sorted.

  • Loads logged from the cab
  • Weighbridge tickets photographed
  • Moisture, protein and grade
  • Yield per paddock and variety
  • Silo and bin storage levels
  • Deliveries to buyers and depots
  • Contract tonnes remaining
  • Exports to your accounts

Audits & compliance

Audit week becomes audit afternoon.

Your daily records already hold what the auditor wants. We turn them into Freshcare, LPA and buyer audit packs and flag missing entries early so nothing turns into a scramble.

  • Freshcare-ready record sets
  • LPA and NVD record keeping
  • Buyer and processor audit packs
  • Missing entry alerts
  • Chemical training and ticket records
  • Corrective action tracking
  • Documents stored with expiry dates
  • Full history behind every report

Staff & tasks

The day's jobs on every phone before smoko.

Give a job once with the paddock map, the instructions and the gear needed. Staff tick it off with photos and notes. You see where everything's up to from the office or the ute.

  • Jobs assigned by paddock
  • Maps and directions to the gate
  • Photos and notes on completion
  • Online inductions and tickets
  • QR sign-in for crews
  • Timesheets to payroll
  • SMS alerts for urgent jobs
  • Seasonal worker records

Machinery & costs

Know what every machine and paddock really costs.

Hours, fuel and services are logged against each machine. Fuel, chem, seed and labour roll up per paddock so you can see which crops pay and which just keep you busy.

  • Machinery register
  • Service intervals by hours
  • Breakdown and repair logs
  • Fuel logged per machine
  • Fuel tax credit records
  • Costs per paddock and crop
  • Gross margins by season
  • Syncs with Xero or MYOB
04How it changes

Before and after

An audit, wolloped.

Here's how a buyer audit could change. Every operation is different, so we map yours first.

Before

  1. Hunt for notebooks in three different utes
  2. Find half the spray entries missing
  3. Ring staff to remember rates and dates
  4. Auditor asks for chem training records nobody can find
  5. Retype it all into a spreadsheet
  6. Days lost and a stressful audit

After

  1. Search records by paddock and date
  2. Every spray complete with weather attached
  3. Gaps were flagged a month ago
  4. Training and tickets already on file
  5. Audit pack generated in minutes
  6. Back in the paddock by lunch

07How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your agribusiness: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time in the paddock, the shed and the office, then work out which records and jobs are slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your paddocks, products, staff, machinery, audits, offline needs, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the spray diary or the most painful record first, so you're winning before next season.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

08Questions

FAQ

Things agribusinesses ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Will it work without reception in the paddock?

Yes. Records save on the phone and sync when you're back in range, so a dead spot never costs you an entry.

Do we have to stop using AgriWebb or Agworld?

No. If a platform is doing its job we build around it and fill the gaps between it and everything else. If something's holding you back, we'll show you what replacing it involves before anything changes.

Can it pull in the weather for spray records?

Yes. We can pull Bureau of Meteorology data or readings from your own weather station so wind, temperature and Delta T are captured with each spray.

Will it help with Freshcare or LPA audits?

Yes. We build the records around what your schemes ask for, generate the reports and flag missing entries early. You still do the audit. It just stops taking a week.

Can staff who aren't great with tech use it?

That's the aim. Big buttons, few choices and nothing to type that a dropdown can handle instead. We test it with your crew before it goes live.

Can it handle more than one property?

Yes. Multiple farms, leases and entities in one system, each with its own records and a combined view for the bosses.

How much does an agribusiness system cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand it. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

How long does it take?

Smaller jobs like a spray diary can be quick. Bigger systems are planned in stages so you get the first win early, ideally before your next season, instead of waiting for everything at once.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated, backed up and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.

We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?

Usually, yes. Most agribusinesses we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
