Whether you’re looking to analyze today or forecast tomorrow, Farm360 provides the tools you’ll need to optimize production, lower costs and How Effective Fish Tracking can maximize profitability.  

The Most Comprehensive Platform  

A dedicated farm management solution like Farm360 is designed to help you quickly and more easily make data-driven business decisions in real-time. The platform enables you to better control your aquaculture operations by providing up-to-date data on key farm activities, so you can make decisions based on quantitative insights at any time, from anywhere.  

With Farm360 you can: 

• Lower your production costs by 10 percent, by reducing feed costs and wage hours, leading to increased operational efficiency and higher growth rates.  
• Spend 60 percent less time on data input and reporting, by using all-in-one dashboards that make cost-per-feed and FCR calculations easy. 
• Secure access anywhere, anytime, thanks to a cloud-based platform that keeps all your data private.

Real-time Data Collection  

The Farm360 platform is cloud-based, so you’ll see updates automatically whenever new data is entered by anyone on your team. Whether you’re on site and enter data through the intuitive mobile app or opt to use your laptop back at the office, our all-in-one dashboard provides updated information instantaneously to anyone in your company with access. Your team is not only enabled with an up-to-the-minute view of what’s going on but also equipped with the data they need to proactively make changes, share updates, optimize production and forecast accurately.  

“With Farm360, I am always in control of my farm. After switching to Farm360, we are inputting accurate data systematically, viewing reports we can rely on, and gaining better control and tracking of staff’s daily operations, including feeding, thus increasing our farm productivity.” –Argosaronicos Fishfarming S.A., Greece  

Easier Decision Making  

The Farm360 stock status algorithm is always up-to-date, giving you the information you need to make decisions in real time. “It’s great to have real-time data for feedings, fish size and stock number at your fingertips every minute of the day,“ says Mt Cook Alpine Salmon in New Zealand, “Farm360 provides us essential on-farm visibility to inventory, feeding and performance data, seamlessly linked to our BI platform for analysis and reporting.” Contrary to static spreadsheets that constantly need to be updated, downloaded and shared, Farm 360 lives in the cloud and ensures that everyone will have access to the same data at the same time.  

As a farm manager, you’ll always have the hard data and quantitative insights you’ll need to see exactly how your farm is performing. “Having the ability to enter data in real-time with a user-friendly mobile app means greater control over feeding, inventory and growth,” says Mt Cook Alpine Salmon.  

Clients can make decisions in the moment that can save you time and reduce feeding and production costs in the long run. The dashboard includes comprehensive reports and data visualizations on key metrics like fish health, feeding, biomass and environmental conditions in your area.  

Accurate Long-term Forecasting  

In the aquaculture industry, proactive planning is crucial to seeing a return on your investment. Long production cycles are part of the game, so setting key performance indicators and forecasting as far ahead as you can are essential for success.  

Not only can the Farm360 platform forecast your feed quantities from broodstock through two years out, it can also project your operational costs, fish growth curves and future sales. And rest assured, your data is protected at all times so all those projections are for your team’s eyes only. According to Sociedade Piscicultora Farense (SPF), “Since we started using Farm360 we save time on data input, making it consistent, so that it is easier to order feeds accurately and on-time.” 

Easier Third-party Validation  

More and more fish farmers are seeking third-party validation from certifications like Global Gap, Friends of the Sea, the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) or the NSF’s Best Aquaculture Practices (BAP). Securing an independent endorsement of a farm’s safe and sustainable practices provides a high-quality proof point to help secure new sales and partnerships. Farm360 makes it easier than ever to provide these entities with the standardized, time-stamped data required so they can monitor and evaluate a farm’s overall operations, inventory management and feed traceability.   

“For Global GAP, IFS and all key certifications we’ve undergone, Farm360 helped to provide full traceability data successfully and helped us get certified. What’s more, when lots of fish died during a recent unfortunate flooding and we had to prove the mortalities to the government authorities for reimbursement, Farm360 was the trusted resource we relied on.”  –Argosaronicos Fishfarming S.A., Greece
