Agrivencia
How Agrivencia Works
Built for UK farm businesses across all four nations.
Agrivencia brings the whole of a UK farm business into one record — cropping, livestock, land, water, inputs, machinery, schemes, compliance, carbon, markets and people — and makes that record do the paperwork that currently takes days.
How it works
From first login to first evidence pack
Getting started is deliberately short. The platform earns its keep from the first scheme window, not after a six-month implementation.
-
1
Create the business account
Register the business and add every holding, including any across a border. The identifier graph reconciles the references each national system uses.
-
2
Import your land
Parcels come in from the relevant national system and are reconciled against mapping and registry geometry into one canonical boundary record.
-
3
Switch on the modules you need
Start with one. The scheme engine and the land record are the usual entry point because they pay for themselves in the first window.
-
4
Record work as it happens
Field capture works offline and synchronises later. The record is created once, at the point of work, rather than reconstructed in an office in February.
-
5
Let the evidence assemble itself
Audit packs, scheme evidence, carbon activity data and compliance records are built from what you already recorded.
-
6
Optimise across the whole business
The optimiser works out the highest-value compliant position across schemes, nature markets and enterprises, subject to every applicable cap.
-
7
Bring in your advisers
Grant scoped, revocable access to an agronomist, vet, land agent or accountant. Revoke it in one click when the job is done.
Delivery
How Agrivencia is being built and proven
The programme follows the government digital service lifecycle, with an explicit gate at each stage and a documented decision to proceed, change direction or stop.
-
Discovery
Understand the users and the data estate
On-farm research across all four nations, a full audit of available data sources and their licensing, and a strategic outline case. Nothing is built until the problem is evidenced.
-
Alpha
Prototype the hardest things first
The identifier graph, the boundary record and the scheme engine — the three things everything else depends on — are prototyped and tested with real businesses before anything else is written.
-
Private beta
Prove it in one nation with invited users
A working service used by real farms through a real scheme window, with the failure modes exposed while the cohort is small enough to support properly.
-
Public beta
Open it up and extend across nations
Available to all, with the remaining nations phased in as each administration's scheme data stabilises, and full Welsh language provision from the point Wales goes live.
-
Live
Scaled service with published performance
Performance data published openly, a benefits realisation review against the original case, and continuous rather than project-based improvement.
Getting started
What you need to hand
Setting up takes about twenty minutes for a single holding. Nothing here needs to be perfect on day one; the platform will help you correct it.
Why Agrivencia
What makes this different from another farm software package
Most farm software solves one problem well and leaves the rest to spreadsheets and portals. Agrivencia is built as one record with many views.
One record, many outputs
Enter a field operation once and it populates the agronomy record, the assurance audit pack, the scheme evidence file and the carbon footprint without being retyped.
Four nations, properly
England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland each run different schemes, portals, identifiers and language obligations. Each is a first-class tenancy, not an exception.
Rules as data
Scheme rules are stored as data, not code. When a rate changes or a window closes, the platform updates the same day rather than waiting for a release.
Offline first
Only around a fifth of farms report reliable signal across the whole holding. Field capture works without a connection and synchronises when one returns.
Evidence, graded
Every published figure is labelled by source tier, and conflicting estimates are shown as conflicts rather than quietly resolved in favour of the convenient one.
Your data, portable
The Farm Data Charter gives you a complete export in open formats at any time. Lock-in is a commercial strategy, not a technical necessity.
Questions answered
The questions we get asked most
Is Agrivencia a government service?
No. Agrivencia is a private platform designed to integrate with government systems across all four nations. It is built to government digital and accessibility standards, and it is proposed to government as an integration and delivery partner, but it is not a public body and does not speak for one.
How much does it cost?
There is a free tier that covers scheme discovery, deadline tracking and the land record, because those are the things that cost farmers money when they go wrong. Paid tiers add application management, optimisation, adviser seats and the commercial modules.
What if I only want one part of it?
That is the normal way to start. Most businesses begin with the scheme engine or the land record and add modules as they need them. Nothing requires you to adopt all eighty-four.
Is it available in Welsh?
Welsh language provision is a legal expectation for services in Wales and is treated as a requirement rather than a translation project. Gaelic content is provided for Scotland where relevant.
How accessible is it?
The platform is built to meet WCAG 2.2 at level AA, with a full keyboard path, captions and audio description on video, and an assisted-digital route for people who do not want to do everything online.
What happens to my data if I leave?
You take it with you. A complete export in open formats is available at any time, and account closure follows a published retention and deletion schedule.
Who is behind it?
Agrivencia is an independent platform business. Our evidence standards, data charter and commercial terms are published in full because a platform asking for farm data should be legible before it is trusted.
What we are hearing
The problems people describe to us
These are composite statements drawn from user research conversations, not attributed customer quotes. We publish named references only with written consent.
I am not short of software. I am short of one place where the same field means the same thing in all of it.
The scheme closed on a Tuesday evening. I had the application half built. Nobody told me the budget was nearly gone.
We farm on both sides of the border. Everything takes twice as long and I still cannot see the whole position on one screen.
Audit week costs me three days. Every single record they ask for is already written down somewhere on this farm.

Thirty minutes, using your parcels, your schemes and your enterprises rather than a sample farm. No obligation and no sales script — if it does not fit your business we will say so.
