Challenge	The Jansz Parish vineyard, a 220-hectare property in Penna, Tasmania, was struggling with gaining insight into the detailed cost per hectare of their wine production. They also wanted to produce accurate production budgets for future seasons without adding extra layers of administration and complexity. The vineyard has three types of soil and focuses on biodiversity by planting flowering crops every 10th row, along with corridors of native bush and a cover cropping program. This diversity required them to monitor their nutrition closely with soil testing six weeks post-harvest, petiole analysis pre and post flowering, and dry ash analysis at harvest. Read More
About Customer	The Jansz Parish Vineyard in Penna, Tasmania, is a 220-hectare property owned by the Hill-Smith family. The vineyard, originally planted in 1999, currently boasts 62ha of mature grapevines, 42ha of young vines planted in 2017 and another 80ha of conservation covenant, home to endangered flora, Tasmanian devils, wallabies, echidnas and a range of other species. The vines are all planted on a trellis system with vertical shoot positioning. Due to its cool climate, not unlike the famous Champagne area in France, the Jansz Parish Vineyard produces grapes mainly for Jansz Tasmania sparkling wines. The grape varieties grown here are mainly Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, with smaller plantings of Riesling, Pinot Meunier, and Sauvignon Blanc. Read More
Solution	Jansz viticulturist James Aubrey implemented Agworld to capture all input and labour costs involved in production. The whole team at the Jansz Parish uses Agworld, not only for capturing costs but for recording agronomic observations in the vineyard. By capturing all costs in Agworld, James is able to accurately predict costs for upcoming seasons, track these costs as the season progresses and easily produce the detailed reports that he needs. James uses Agworld to create spray sheets and do all his input planning; once these plans have been executed on, he turns them into an actual. He also captures the weather situation at the time of spraying, so his spray records are complete. Read More Log in to view content
