Precision Decisions for
Mackay's Farming Businesses

Mackay produces a third of Australia's cane sugar.Your operations deserve AI that works in the field.

We build production-grade AI agents for farming businesses across Mackay and Queensland — from precision irrigation to supply chain optimisation, built for edge environments and local conditions.

Challenges We Solve

The Pressures Squeezing Farm Margins

Agriculture runs on tight margins and narrow windows. These four pressures are the ones AI can directly reduce.

Rising Input Costs

Fuel, fertiliser, chemicals, and labour costs keep climbing while commodity prices fluctuate. Every inefficiency in your input usage cuts directly into margin — and there's little room left to absorb it.

Volatile Commodity Prices

Sugar, grain, and livestock prices shift with global markets, weather, and policy changes beyond your control. Without better data, timing decisions — planting, selling, contracting — remains more guesswork than strategy.

Seasonal Labour Challenges

Harvest and planting windows are tight. Finding, coordinating, and managing seasonal workforces in regional Queensland is getting harder every year — and delays cost yield.

Connectivity Constraints in the Field

Paddocks, remote irrigation blocks, and processing facilities often have poor or no connectivity. Traditional cloud-dependent systems fail exactly when you need them most — during active operations.

Our Solutions

AI Built for Agricultural Operations

Edge-capable, production-ready agents designed for the connectivity realities, seasonal pressures, and margin sensitivity of Queensland farming.

IoT + AI for Soil, Irrigation & Yield

AI agents integrate with soil sensors, weather stations, and irrigation controllers to optimise water application, fertiliser timing, and yield predictions — reducing input costs while protecting output volumes.

Supply Chain Optimisation

Intelligent agents track commodity pricing, logistics windows, and contractor availability to surface the right timing for planting, harvest, transport, and selling decisions — turning data into actionable strategy.

Pest & Disease Monitoring

Computer vision and sensor-based AI agents monitor crops for early signs of pest pressure and disease. Early detection reduces treatment costs, minimises crop loss, and cuts unnecessary chemical applications.

Automated Procurement

AI agents handle routine procurement workflows — comparing supplier quotes, raising purchase orders, and managing reorder thresholds for consumables, fuel, and parts — freeing your team for higher-value decisions.

Why Loxent

Mackay-Based. Edge-Capable. Production Systems.

We're based in Mackay — cane country. We understand the operational realities of regional Queensland agriculture, including limited connectivity, seasonal workforce demands, and the economics of commodity farming.

Mackay-based — we know your region

Built in cane country. We understand the seasonal rhythms, regional supply chains, and the specific pressures on Mackay's farming businesses.

Edge & offline-capable AI

Our solutions are designed to work in low-connectivity and offline environments. AI that only works on fast broadband isn't useful in the field — ours is.

Production systems — not research projects

Every solution we ship runs in production environments. We've moved beyond proof-of-concept to systems that operate reliably at agricultural scale.
