In an era where precision, compliance, and efficiency are essential to successful agriculture, Agri-Tag is pioneering a smarter, more connected way to farm. By harnessing the power of NFC (Near Field Communication) technology, Agri-Tag offers a ground-breaking platform that delivers real-time data, traceability, and streamlined operations directly to the hands of farmers.
Developed in the UK by a team combining over 30 years of experience across farming, engineering, and software development, Agri-Tag is far more than a digital tool — it’s a fully integrated platform designed to meet the evolving demands of modern agriculture. Its robust, IP68-rated NFC tags can be affixed to livestock, machinery, infrastructure, tools, gates, and more, providing each item with a unique digital identity.
With a simple tap of a smartphone, users can instantly access or update key information, from maintenance logs and inspection checklists to livestock treatments, biosecurity actions, and site audits. Every interaction is automatically time- and user-stamped, ensuring secure and transparent record-keeping that meets industry and regulatory standards.
“Agri-Tag has completely streamlined our compliance processes,” says Tom Elwood, a Lincolnshire-based farm manager. “What used to take hours in paperwork now takes seconds, and we’ve drastically reduced the risk of missed checks or inaccurate logs.”
The platform’s flexibility allows it to scale across different types of operations from smallholdings to large estates. Customisable templates, automated reminders, and centralised data dashboards mean teams can work more efficiently, respond to issues faster, and maintain an auditable digital trail without the usual administrative burden.
Agri-Tag is already making a significant impact across sectors such as arable, livestock, equine, horticulture, and agri-contracting. With increasing pressures on farms to improve traceability, safety, and environmental performance, Agri-Tag offers a futureproof solution that puts control back into the hands of those on the ground.
By replacing outdated paper systems with reliable, waterproof NFC tags and a user-friendly digital interface, Agri-Tag is helping to build a smarter, safer, and more sustainable farming future – one tap at a time.
