SMART Farm Innovation Centre

About the facilities

The SMART Farm Innovation Centre (SFIC) is located at Kirby farm, just a few kilometres from the campus. Linked via AARNet and the national broadband network (fibre, terrestrial wireless AND satellite) the facility is the nerve centre for UNE SMART Farms.

The SFIC serves as the farm management centre, as well as a research, education and outreach facility, with a 52 seat seminar room, a smaller meeting room and offices. Students and visitors can experience first hand agricultural systems and technologies being deployed across the farms from this centre.

For enquiries regarding the use of the SMART Farm Innovation Centre contact us.

The University of New England respects and acknowledges that its people, courses and facilities are built on land, and surrounded by a sense of belonging, both ancient and contemporary, of the world's oldest living culture. In doing so, UNE values and respects Indigenous knowledge systems as a vital part of the knowledge capital of Australia. We recognise the strength, resilience and capacity of the Aboriginal community and pay our respects to the Elders past, present and future.
