Hortrac is a cloud based, mobile and tablet friendly, business intelligence system that captures costs, revenue and other key data based on a primary producers business as a whole. From the cost of the individual seed per hectare, the individual labour unit of each task required to produce and harvest each crop, to the end sales value for each product produced, Hortrac enables the producer to capture and analyse them all.
