Dan Schat

Emerald Acres

After managing dairy farms for the past 20+ years, Dan Schat and his wife Amanda recently made the leap, purchasing their first farm, Emerald Acres in Darfield. 

Owning a traditional Canterbury dairy operation has provided a new set of challenges, and maintaining control of all their data has never been more important.

They use the FarmIQ Enterprise Dairy pack to help stay on top of compliance, manage their pasture during the dry Canterbury summer, and keep all of their data accessible no matter where they are.

“It was much easier to have everything in a format where things were just at your fingertips a lot more often...where I see the benefit for me is the fact that everything is in one place."
