It wouldn’t be a trip to #bundaberg without a tour of the Bundaberg Rum Distillery. Thanks to Bundaberg Tourism, Regional Business HQ Bundaberg Regional Council and Queensland AI Hub I’ll be speaking tomorrow at the Bundaberg Region Futures Forum at Multiplex’s Exhibition Hall on the business benefits of AI. Bundy has changed a lot since I was last here; more than 10 years ago. What I see is vibrant community, lush landscapes, and rich agricultural heritage. As technology continues to evolve, so too does the way farmers cultivate their land. Modern agricultural practices are embracing cutting-edge technology, from automated irrigation systems to drone surveillance, and artificial intelligence promoting sustainable and efficient farming. Beyond agriculture, Bundaberg is fertile ground for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Local businesses are looking towards AI to streamline operations, enhance customer experiences, and drive growth. Whether it's using AI to analyze market trends, optimize supply chains, or personalize marketing efforts, Bundaberg's businesses are finding new ways to thrive in the digital age while staying true to their heritage. See you tomorrow. 😀

As I mentioned, 3 massive shows next week! If you have any fingers in the Ag or Agtech industries you'll want to get down to FutureAg next week at the Melbourne Showgrounds. There will be a range of interesting and innovative solution providers within the rapidly evolving agriculture landscape. Here's just a few examples Drone-Hand PTY LTD using AI/ML to monitor farms remotely, Bardee transforming food waste into protein and fertiliser, AgTech Finder to help you locate the right agtech products, and a bunch of smart farming and automation solutions so get on down! Manufacturing Tech Australia will be on site on Wednesday to check out the latest agtech, but its on 3 days from 17-19 April at the Melbourne Showgrounds.

🌟 Excited to Share Our Victory! 🌟 I am thrilled to announce that our team secured FIRST PLACE in the Agritech Hackathon conducted by AHUB! 🎉🚀 Our innovative project, an Auto Valving System powered by water sensors and a user-friendly application, enables efficient water management for fields anywhere in the world. This breakthrough technology ensures optimal water usage, promoting sustainable agriculture and helping farmers globally. Participating in this hackathon was an eye-opening experience. Initially, we had no expectations of winning. We quickly learned that practical application in the real world differs greatly from theoretical concepts. This realization emphasized the importance of thorough research and analysis before attempting to solve any problem. Understanding the problem from all perspectives is crucial. I discovered the value of interviewing stakeholders—those who will use the solution—to ensure our ideas are feasible and truly beneficial. Their feedback is essential for success. A big thank you to AHUB for hosting this event and providing a platform for innovation and collaboration. Here's to many more groundbreaking achievements in the future! #Agritech #Hackathon #Innovation #Sustainability #Agriculture #Technology #WaterManagement #AHUB #TeamSuccess #LearningExperience
