BettaBiz

• BettaBiz® is a financial and productivity benchmarking service and operates as a part of the BettaCrop® and BettaCrop Gold® programs.

• Bettabiz benchmarking and analysis is based on data gathered from within the BettaCrop® Programs.

• Advisers collect over 30 separate variables from within each paddock for each season including crop inputs, seasonal operations, crop observations, and yield and quality information.

• Annual analysis of this information allows for paddocks to be compared within the farm and within the district – through anonymous benchmarking

• Electronic recording over time builds up on-farm information, giving power to decision making. In combination with BettaCrop®, productivity benchmarking can clearly identify future direction for your farm.

 

An example of some outcomes from analysis from 2001 to 2003 seasons:

• Financial inputs and receipts from crop production are analysed and compared across the farm, and anonymously between other farms within the district and state.

 

• End of season reports and workshops provide perspective to identify profitable and costly scenarios and an opportunity to discuss outcomes with the Farmer & Adviser network
