Our Work Philosophy
We take a quantitative approach to help our clients. For Farm Business Optimisation we look at current and planned production plans; we then overlay resource constraints and yield / revenue data to enable us to model the optimal production plan that will maximise profit.
We have also developed a growing online farm reporting platform designed as a secure, easy to use tool to store all your crop, field and farm information that is easy to update and ready for assurance and inspections.
We take a highly consultative approach to our engagements, ensuring buy-in and actionability of the conclusions throughout the process. We work with a small number of highly experienced trusted associates where the workload dictates. We do not stop until we have found a solution and result that always satisfies our clients.
Demand Economics is passionate about making data reporting and planning accessible for everyday use by farms to help them Grow their business.
