Farming is a complicated industry, where risks are heavily temporal, and without sufficient support, whole businesses can be taken out by a single event.
With a decade since the last major Australian drought event, and countless rule changes in the interleaving years; many farmers won't be aware of drought relief initives in their areas.
Our tool aims to fix this, and help farmers cut a bit of red tape.
A data.gov dataset of drought vulnerabilities is used as the base of our analysis. The rest is a set of curated governmental and public-private partnership pages, hand picked to be useful for local farmers.
This is all mapped onto Australia, making it easy for farmers to see what info applies to them.
Description of Use Directly mapped, and used as basis for geographical divisions in apps. Helps farmers see the relative risk of their farm, or future farmers plan a location.
