💧Are you an apple grower and need to map your irrigation infrastructure?

At Landkind we have been steadily expanding our functionality for NZAPI members to enable them to experience the wide-range of tools in our software.

NZAPI members can now map and track every water line, pump, and valve right in Landkind. Easily add irrigation layers to your PDF maps, digital Share Maps, and the Landkind App - so your infrastructure is always at your fingertips. Stay on top of where your pipes are and make confident decisions with precise, up-to-date records.

At Landkind we’re gearing up for another big season with Sunforest. If you're a grower, packhouse or manager we want to make sure you are too. Get in touch for a quick check to confirm you’re ready for the new season.
This year, we’ll be running calibration testing again during the season to add confidence to the results you’re getting on orchard and ensure any variation with the new season is accounted for.
Don’t forget:
📱 We have a new mobile app that makes collecting Sunforest readings and identifying trends in the orchard even easier
💻 Enhanced analysis tools in the web app help you get the most from your Sunforest data and plan your maturity areas to perfection

Rabobank's most recent whitepaper ‘Changing of the guard’ estimates that half of NZ’s orchard owners will hit retirement age in the next decade, triggering a $150 billion shift in land ownership and that only 1 in 3 growers have a formal succession plan.

This is a huge transition and it explains why so many growers are starting to rethink how they manage their orchards as they approach retirement. At Landkind we've seen a large uptake in growers focussed on preserving their orchard specific knowledge, by documenting tasks, and keeping a digital diary. With the tech-savvy next generation, digital tools like Landkind are becoming essential:
🌐 Digital orchard maps for clear handovers
📒 Activity logs & crop records to keep history alive
📱 Mobile workflows for modern, efficient operations
🔐 Role-based access for workers or contractors
✅ Compliance tools to avoid headaches during change

Succession can take time, but if you’re thinking about the future of your orchard, it's never too late to get started.
