Reliable
Automatically recorded data that reduces gaps and disputes.
Hardware
Hardware that captures reliable operational data
Some information should not rely on manual entry. FarmTrace hardware is designed to capture key data automatically and support control where it is needed. It connects into the same platform as mobile workflows and integrations.
Why hardware exists
Measure what is hard to capture reliably by hand
Connected
Device data becomes part of your operational records in FarmTrace.
Practical
Designed for real operating conditions and on-site installation.
Reduce reliance on manual capture
Measure what is hard to capture reliably by hand.
Improve accountability for high-risk areas
Provide basic control infrastructure that supports day-to-day operations.
Support access and operational control
Feed the same reporting and visibility layer.
Measured data that fits into the platform
FarmTrace hardware is not designed to be a separate system. Devices connect into the FarmTrace platform, so measurements can be linked to sites, assets, teams, and workflows.
Not a separate system
This allows groups to track operational performance with higher confidence, especially where manual capture can be inconsistent.
How it fits with the platform
Devices record measurements automatically. Data is linked to entities, locations, and assets. Records can be used in reporting and investigations. Workflows can reference device data where required.
Built for farms and packhouses
Designed for practical installation and operating conditions
Installable
Designed for on-site installation and serviceability.
Rugged
Built for real conditions in farms and industrial environments.
Connected
Device data connects into the FarmTrace platform for reporting.
Traceable
Events and measurements can support audits and investigations.
Scalable
Designed for multi-site operations and repeatable deployment.
Useful
Built around measurements that add value to decisions.
Deployment
Start where the value is highest
Hardware projects are usually introduced in areas where manual capture is unreliable or where variance has a meaningful cost. Deployments are staged and aligned to reporting needs.
Identify the highest-variance area

Connected into workflows
Hardware becomes more useful when it can be linked to the workflows teams already run.
Approvals, investigations, and exception reviews
Where needed, device data can be referenced in approvals, investigations, and exception reviews.
