Shownotes

In this episode of In the Shed with Trev, host Sheryl Haitana is joined by FarmRight’s Ed Tapp and Mahesh De Silva to share how they approach choosing the right digital tools across a complex farming business.

Managing dairy, beef, and horticulture operations across New Zealand, FarmRight needs clear, consistent information to keep performance on track, especially when decisions are being made daily across multiple farms.

Rather than starting with the technology, Ed and Mahesh explain why the process begins with defining the problem, and why involving the right people early is critical to getting alignment and long-term success.

They walk through how FarmRight evaluates new tools, the criteria they use, and how they build internal buy-in well before any rollout begins.

This is a practical look at where good systems start, getting the foundations right so the tools you choose actually deliver value day to day on farm.

If you're reviewing your current systems or thinking about bringing in new tools, this episode is a good place to start.
