Ag Data Lab
An open notebook of field experiments
Hypotheses, prototypes and honest results from exploring what happens when agricultural data meets modern technology.
Testing ideas before they become products
Most farm data problems don’t have off-the-shelf answers. The lab is where we try things early, learn in the open, and publish what worked.
In the Lab
Short investigations — what we wondered, what we tried, what worked, what did not, and what should improve next.
AB lines won’t transfer between machines
If you’re redrawing the same line in a second package or the cab won’t import what the office exported, we investigate format, coordinates and field mapping — not the operator.
Boundary files from hand drawing using AI
A rough hand-drawn paddock boundary should become a GIS-ready file for FMIS and machinery — but only if the AI output can be checked before it goes to the field.
FarmENGAGE / Operations Center not syncing
Duplicate jobs, missing boundaries or stale prescriptions usually mean the integration path — not the hardware — needs investigation.
Voice-activated livestock management
When your hands are full or covered in muck, stopping to open an app and fill in livestock records simply doesn’t happen. Can voice-activated instructions fill that gap?
Have something worth testing?
Bring a practical problem from the paddock — we’ll explore whether it belongs in the lab.
