Capacity Loss from Inaccurate Yield Forecasts
Definition
Manual and inaccurate yield forecasting in crop production scheduling results in mismatched planning for transport, storage, and marketing, leading to capacity underutilisation across the supply chain.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD 100k-500k per farm/season in lost capacity from idle storage/transport (20-30% underutilisation based on volatile planning errors)
- Frequency: Annually per cropping season
- Root Cause: No comprehensive geo-located yield data, reliance on subjective assessments
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Horticulture players in Australia waste AUD 500k+ annually per large farm on inefficient capacity utilisation. Automation of crop production scheduling and yield forecasting eliminates bottlenecks and idle assets.
