It’s fantastic to see many of the innovators and attendees at our 2024 GRDC GroundUp Showcase Day featured in Grain Central’s coverage of the event. Kurt Walter was front and centre, with the Walco Seed Cleaning Director and GroundUp program participant explaining the ins and outs of his device which uses AI to increase the efficiency and accuracy of grain assessments. We’ve had plenty of great feedback following last week’s event, which was attended by more than 150 people. Thanks to everyone involved and Grain Central for the great write-up.

A compelling alternative to traditional synthetic chemicals 🌾 Introducing Bio10, one of the innovators in our 2024 GRDC GroundUp program. Bio10 has developed a new rapid compost system that can reformulate solid and agricultural waste into fertiliser in less than five days. Specifically, the startup is harnessing advanced biological processes and enzyme technologies to accelerate waste decomposition and enhance nutrient retention, reducing waste to high value compost which, with certain inputs, can be processed to produce pelleted fertiliser. Founded in 2019 with a team of specialists in aquaculture, biotechnology and industrial engineering, Bio10 is also focusing on another major challenge in the agricultural sector – growing pesticide resistance. Combining natural ingredients with the latest nano technology, the company has created a range of compelling alternatives to synthetic pesticides that repel large and small pests with a single-treatment solution including mealy bugs, spider mites, russet mites, aphids and caterpillars. Bio10 will showcase their solutions at our 2024 GRDC GroundUp Showcase day this Thursday. #GroundUp #Agtech #Grains #Fertiliser #Accelerator

Circular biofuel solution aims to fuel cost savings for farmers 🌾 ⛽ 🚜 Introducing Seed 2 Diesel, an innovator involved in our 2024 GRDC GroundUp program that is committed to enabling oilseed growers to turn their own crops into fuel. It’s an innovative concept that would see oilseed collected from growers and then extracted, cleaned and processed into biodiesel, and later returned to the grower for use in their agricultural equipment. The protein-rich byproduct, oilseed meal, could then be on-sold as a food source for livestock producers on a grower’s behalf. Seed 2 Diesel founder Johnny Wapstra says the aim is to make farmers self-sufficient for fuel by processing the oilseeds they already grow, which will result in substantial cost savings. Seed 2 Diesel is aiming to build a demonstration facility that can produce 360,000 litres of biodiesel per year in the Darling Downs. You can find out more about Seed 2 Diesel by coming along to our 2024 GRDC GroundUp Showcase Day on August 29.

Repurposing agricultural waste for fuels and fertilisers 🌾 ⛽ Introducing MADE Australia, an innovator in our 2024 GRDC GroundUp Program that is tapping underutilised tech to help farmers convert agricultural waste into cheap fuel and fertiliser. MADE is using novel anaerobic digestion technology to produce biofertilisers and biofuels and develop a scalable ‘biohub’, designed to improve farmers’ yields and profitability without relying on synthetic fuels and fertilisers. The Victorian agritech company’s ultimate goal is for every agricultural community in Australia to have a MADE Biohub – a novel anaerobic digestion technology embedded within a circular bioeconomy where agricultural waste is repurposed to create a reliable, more affordable and zero emissions local supply of biofertilisers and biofuels.

Advanced weed targeting technology a ‘game-changer’ for ag 🌾 🚜 Fantastic to see InFarm – one of the innovators in our 2024 GRDC GroundUp program – featured in the latest edition of Queensland Farmer Today. InFarm is focused on solving a major challenge in the grains industry and wider agricultural sector – over spraying of herbicides. The Queensland agricultural company has developed a drone to tractor solution called Fallow Weed, which leverages AI, drones and USB sticks to give farmers precise guidance on where to apply herbicide and how much to spray. The cutting-edge solution also eliminates the need to invest in expensive equipment to target weeds. InFarm CEO Jerome Leray says when deployed across a 750-hectare paddock in the Goondiwindi region, Fallow Weed resulted in a 97.5 per cent saving in chemical usage. Thanks to Fiona Gowers at Queensland Farmer Today for the coverage. You can find out more about InFarm’s solution by checking out their website or coming along to our 2024 GRDC GroundUp Day on Thursday, August 29.
