FARMAX is a modelling and decision support tool, developed for pastoral farmers in New Zealand.

The tool allows you to build a digital version of your farm, understand your current drivers of physical, financial and environmental performance, and explore unlimited scenarios to analyse what's possible for your farm.

The beauty of FARMAX is that you can test out different scenarios before implementing them on farm, giving you the power to see what is possible and choose the optimum course of action.

FARMAX accurately predicts the impacts of business decisions before you make them.
