About AgriGrid

AgriGrid is Australian-owned farm compliance software for horticulture. It exists so that the proof of what happened on your farm is created as the work happens, rather than reconstructed the week before an audit.

The problem we build against

Every certified grower already keeps records. The trouble is where they are kept: a diary in the ute, a spreadsheet on one laptop, a folder of chemical labels, a text message about who sprayed what. Each is accurate on its own and none of them line up when an auditor asks a single question — which block, on what date, at what rate, by whom, with which calibrated rig, and when was it safe to pick.

So the design rule is record once. A spray logged in the paddock carries its own withholding period and re-entry interval, ties itself to the block it was applied to, and flags that block until the periods expire. The same record is what the audit pack is later built from. Nothing is entered twice, because anything entered twice eventually disagrees with itself.

Who it is for

Australian horticulture — orchards, vineyards and vegetable growers who hold a Freshcare certification or are working toward one. That focus is deliberate. A tool built for every kind of agriculture at once ends up asking a citrus grower to describe a paddock of wheat, and the setup cost is where most farm software is abandoned.

It is built for operations without an IT department: the web app runs in a browser, the field app is free on the App Store, and a setup wizard walks a new business through its farm, blocks and team.

What it covers today

Everything listed here is in the product now. We do not describe roadmap as though it had shipped.

Spray records

Tank mixes planned, equipment calibrated, applications logged with GPS tracks from the field app. Withholding periods and re-entry intervals come off the label the user records and are shown against the block until they expire. How the spray diary works.

Freshcare FSQ 4.2

Risk assessments, obligations and evidence mapped to the 44 elements of the standard, with an audit pack assembled from records already captured. FSQ 4.2 record keeping.

Work health and safety

Take-5s, incident reports, pre-start checks, SWMS, training and induction records — a safety system that stays live instead of sitting in a folder.

Farm mapping

Farms, blocks and rows drawn on satellite imagery, carrying area, crop cycle, variety and rootstock.

Equipment and nutrition

Machinery, service schedules, maintenance actions and sprayer calibration history; fertiliser and fertigation records with nutrient budgets.

Purchasing and profitability

Purchase orders, receipting, supplier compliance and a Xero integration, with cost and revenue attributed down to the block and crop cycle.

How it is built

Two halves that are the same system. The web app is where the operation is set up and where records are assembled into reports and audit packs. The iOS field app is where records are made: it captures offline, survives a locked screen, and syncs when signal returns. Records made in the paddock are the ones that are true, and a system that needs coverage to accept them will simply not be used.

Each business's data is isolated from every other at the database level, not by application code alone — the difference matters, because the first kind of mistake is a bug and the second is a breach. We do not sell farm data, and we do not share it with chemical suppliers, packers or certification bodies. See the Privacy Policy for how that works in detail.

What we will not claim

A compliance vendor is in a position to overstate what it does, because the buyer usually cannot check until audit day. These are the four things we will not say, stated here rather than in a footnote:

• We are not affiliated with Freshcare Ltd. Freshcare publishes the standard and approved certification bodies run the audits. We build software that helps you keep the records the standard asks for. We are not endorsed or certified by them.
• We do not guarantee an audit result. The auditor decides. What AgriGrid can do is make sure the evidence exists, is dated, and can be produced — which is where most non-conformances actually come from.
• We make no claim to support FSQ5. The next edition of the standard has not been published. We will implement it once we can read it, and not before.
• We are not a source of chemical label data. Withholding periods come from the label you record. AgriGrid tracks and surfaces them; it is not a substitute for reading the label.

If you want the longer version of the FSQ5 position, including Freshcare's published transition dates and an honest list of what nobody outside Freshcare knows yet, read the FSQ5 page.

Common questions

Who makes AgriGrid?

AgriGrid is an Australian-owned and operated software company. The product is built for Australian horticulture and developed here, and support is handled by the same people who build it. You can reach us at sales@agrigrid.net.

Who is AgriGrid for?

Horticulture: orchards, vineyards and vegetable growers who hold a Freshcare certification or are working toward one. The structure is farm, block and row, which is how a horticultural operation is actually managed and how an auditor asks about it.

Do I need an IT department to run it?

No. There is nothing to install on the web side, the field app comes from the App Store, and the setup wizard walks you through your farm, blocks and team. If you can keep a spray diary you can run AgriGrid.

Is the free plan a trial?

No. The Free plan is permanent: one farm, up to five blocks, unlimited team members, farm mapping and spray records with withholding periods, no card required. Paid plans add scale and modules and include a 30-day trial.

Where does my farm data live, and who can see it?

Your records are yours. Each business is isolated from every other at the database level rather than by application code alone, and we do not sell farm data or share it with chemical suppliers, packers or certification bodies. Read the Privacy Policy for the detail.

Does AgriGrid work without phone signal?

Yes. The iOS field app captures offline and syncs when signal returns, which is the only way records get made in the paddock rather than remembered at the kitchen table that night.
