 The Livestock AgTech adoption rebate will give South Australian sheep and cattle producers up to $10,000 to embrace and successfully implement AgTech on-farm and encourage the use of data-based livestock management to help grow their business profitability. The rebate is the next stage of the Red Meat and Wool Growth program, the South Australian Government's $7.5 million commitment to growing the Red Meat and Wool sector. Use of on-farm technology to assist in business decision-making will be a vital component to driving the future growth of our Red Meat and Wool sectors. The rebate scheme is about increasing livestock sector productivity and profitability. It will give South Australian sheep and cattle producers the ability to access AgTech infrastructure and the training and support to successfully implement AgTech on their farms. To be eligible for the rebate, producers first need to complete a farm AgTech adoption plan through the Livestock Enterprise planning sessions. They'll then be able to apply for a rebate of up to $10,000. It can be used by producers to adopt electronic identification equipment like walkover weighing systems, panel readers and auto drafters or remote monitoring sensors for water points and soil. The rebate can also be used for pregnancy scanning services for sheep. 74% of South Australia's sheep producers do not currently perform pregnancy scanning. Pregnancy scanning significantly assists with increasing lambing percentages, leading to improved productivity as well as welfare benefits. Applications for the Livestock AgTech adoption rebate will be open until 31 March 2022 or whenever the funding allocation runs out. Full details on how to access the rebate and how to get involved with the Livestock Enterprise planning sessions are available on the Department of Primary Industries and Region's website now.
