SWAN Systems Information

SWAN Systems is an irrigation and nutrient scheduling platform built for irrigators who need more than a fixed schedule. The platform brings together crop water demand, soil moisture, weather data, and irrigation history to generate optimised irrigation and nutrient plans across every block on your farm — and with SWAN Sync, approved irrigation schedules are sent directly to your controller. No manual re-entry. No transcription errors. The controller updates in minutes. Founded in Perth, Western Australia in 2016 by Tim Hyde, Ivor Gaylard, and Rod Campbell — drawing on more than 70 years of combined experience in agricultural science, irrigated farming, and agribusiness — SWAN Systems now operates across multiple continents, with customers managing vegetables, permanent crops, pasture, turf, and high-value horticulture. Customers have reported water savings of up to 30%, alongside measurable improvements in crop health and yield. The platform works alongside the sensors, probes, and controllers customers already have — no new hardware required. SWAN Systems is a winner of the World Economic Forum's UpLink Water Resilience Challenge, the Rabobank FoodBytes! AgTech Award, and the WAITTA INCITE Startup of the Year.
