# AgriSmart

> If you grow fruit, vegetables or grapes, or you run a farm with seasonal staff, your workforce probably looks nothing like the one most software is built for. Your headcount triples for harvest and drops back again. Some people are paid by the hour, some by the bin, and some by both on the same day. Half your crew came back from last season and needs rehiring before Monday. And the work happens in a block where there is no phone signal.&#10;&#10;AgriSmart was built for exactly that. It is workforce management software for orchards, vineyards, berry and vegetable growers, packhouses and labour hire crews, and it is used across agriculture more broadly, including dairy, sheep and beef farms. Made by a team in Hamilton, New Zealand who work with growers every season.&#10;&#10;Who tends to get the most from it&#10;&#10;The grower or orchard manager who is doing payroll themselves on a Sunday night and knows the spreadsheet is one formula away from a problem. The packhouse manager who cannot reconcile bin counts against picker pay without a morning of cross-checking. The labour hire operator whose compliance liability sits with them, not the landowner, and who needs every calculation recorded per worker and per client. Operations from a small permanent team up to a thousand workers in a single pay run.&#10;&#10;What actually changes&#10;&#10;Crews clock on in the block, offline, or on biometric devices in the shed, and the hours land against the right block, job and rate as they happen. No paper comes back from the field and nothing gets re-keyed before pay day.&#10;&#10;Piece rates run per bin, tray or plant alongside hourly work, with rates that change by block and variety. Earnings are checked against minimum wage rules automatically, so top-ups are flagged before the pay run rather than uncovered in an audit two years later.&#10;&#10;Every bin and crate ties back to picker, block and row, so harvest counts, picker pay and traceability records all come from the same scan. Spray applications are logged with product, rate, block and withholding period, so a consignment never waits on someone's notebook.&#10;&#10;Seasonal schemes are built in, not bolted on&#10;&#10;AgriSmart is built around the Recognised Seasonal Employer (RSE) scheme in New Zealand and the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme in Australia. Visa and scheme records sit alongside contracts and inductions, all completed before day one, and returning workers are rehired in a click rather than onboarded from scratch. In Australia, Award rates are applied alongside piece rate minimum wage checks. Growers tell us this is the part generic payroll systems get wrong, because they treat a seasonal crew as an edge case rather than the main event.&#10;&#10;One grower, a strawberry operation running around 60 staff at peak, went from payroll taking about two days to finishing it in around two hours, and stopped bringing in extra help for the harvest window.&#10;&#10;Where AgriSmart runs payroll, and where it does not&#10;&#10;In New Zealand, AgriSmart runs payroll end to end, including payslips and automatic tax payments. In Australia, it captures the time, piece rates and allowances and produces payroll-ready output for Xero or Reckon. Everywhere else, it handles time capture, piece rates, ticketing, hiring and traceability, and feeds your local payroll system.

Phone support is included from the Pro plan up. Onsite training is available on request, subject to location..&#10;&#10;Getting started&#10;&#10;Book a free demo and we will walk through your season, your crews and how you capture time now, then show what the setup would look like for your operation. Pricing for horticulture is built around workforce size, the modules you need and how you capture time, so you will get a number that reflects your operation rather than a list price.
