Laconik

Laconik is an agricultural technology company that provides a platform for executing farm-scale, scientifically replicated field trials. Its analytics engine integrates with modern farm machinery and digital agriculture platforms to streamline trial setup, data collection, and analysis. By utilizing hardware and software that connects directly to equipment such as rate controllers in seeders and sprayers, the company enables the collection of real-time performance data, including satellite imagery and yield metrics, at a paddock scale. This technology is designed to replace traditional demonstration strips with standardized, statistically valid data collection methods.

This approach helps growers and agribusinesses make evidence-based decisions regarding crop inputs like fertilizers and crop protection products. By enabling users to quantify the return on investment and yield responses for various treatments, Laconik assists agribusinesses in bringing new products to market with deeper insights, while helping farmers optimize their margins and manage risk. The company has supported extensive research plots and hectares of farmland, working with industry partners and growers to improve productivity through data-driven agriculture.
