Australia's leading voice in precision agriculture

What is Precision Agriculture?

Precision agriculture (PA) is a management strategy that gathers, processes and analyses temporal, spatial and individual data and combines it with other information to support management decisions according to estimated variability for improved resource use efficiency, productivity, quality, profitability and sustainability of agricultural production.” – International Society for Precision Agriculture (ISPA, January 2021).

At SPAA, we see precision agriculture as a practical way for growers to use data and technology to make better decisions on-farm. It’s about matching inputs to needs, improving efficiency, lifting productivity, and supporting sustainable farming for the future.


About SPAA

The Society of Precision Agriculture Australia (SPAA) is a not-for-profit, grower-focused association. Our purpose is simple: to help Australian farmers and advisers make the most of precision agriculture.

We connect members with the latest research, tools and practical know-how through workshops, field days, trials, and resources. Whether it’s saving on inputs, improving yields, or building more resilient farming systems, we’re here to support on-farm decisions that drive productivity, profitability and sustainability.

Our community includes farmers, agronomists, consultants, researchers and academics from across broadacre, sugar, cotton, dairy, livestock and horticulture.

At SPAA, our motto says it all: “Guiding you to farming success.”
