Since 2015, DairyBase has been helping more than 2,500 farmers and advisors to create annual reports and forecasts and helps to identify opportunities to drive profit and manage risk. Farmers are equipped to make better informed decisions using DairyBase and generate comparative analysis according to farm size, region and production system.

DairyBase has recently been upgraded, meaning dairy farmers can now forward budget for the coming season with ease.

By combining existing data with estimated milk price and input costs, farmers can build a more accurate picture of where opportunities for profit might be found.

Dairy farmers can access guides on how to use DairyBase, training and education opportunities, and case studies to demonstrate how farmers are using DairyBase as part of managing their farm business.

Every on-farm decision is made based on a combination of experience, data, and gut feel. Independent and reliable data to support on-farm decisions is often hard to find. Dairy Australia works with farmers and the broader industry to establish common language, terminology and metrics about farm performance, and provides tools like DairyBase to equip farmers to measure and track farm performance. This enables dairy farmers to better understand where they sit compared to others, informing future decisions.
