DIT AgTech Launches US Crowdfunding Campaign Targeting $7 Million Raise
Queensland-based DIT AgTech has launched a US crowdfunding campaign aiming to raise up to $7 million as it expands its livestock water-supplementation technology into North and South America.
Australian agricultural technology company DIT AgTech has launched a crowdfunding campaign in the United States, seeking to raise up to US$5 million ($7 million) to support international expansion and accelerate the rollout of its livestock supplementation and methane-reduction technologies. The Toowoomba-based company plans to use the funding to grow its presence across North and South America while scaling its technology platform globally.
Key highlights
- DIT AgTech has launched a US crowdfunding campaign targeting up to US$5 million ($7 million).
- Funds will support expansion across the Americas and global growth initiatives.
- The company's uDOSE technology is currently used across more than 370,000 cattle in Australia.
- DIT AgTech is targeting more than one million livestock by FY29.
- The company is also expanding into methane-reduction and carbon management solutions.
What Happened?
DIT AgTech has launched the capital raise through the DealMaker Securities platform, offering Class C Preferred Non-Voting Stock at US$1.00 per share.
The shares are being issued through DIT AgTech (US) Ltd, a Delaware-based entity established in December 2025 to serve as the company's US commercialisation vehicle.
The fundraising values the business at a pre-money valuation of US$17.9 million ($25 million).
According to the latest filing data, investors have already committed US$50,972 toward the campaign's maximum target of US$5 million.
Why This Matters
The US fundraising campaign marks DIT AgTech's first formal effort to attract American retail investors.
The company sees major growth opportunities in the Americas, where cattle populations vastly exceed those in Australia.
Management believes increasing demand for automation, efficiency improvements and sustainability solutions is creating favourable conditions for expansion across global livestock markets.
How The Technology Works
DIT AgTech's flagship product is the uDOSE system, an automated platform that delivers supplements, minerals and medications directly through livestock drinking water.
The system is integrated with:
- Remote monitoring technology
- Cloud-based management dashboards
- Satellite connectivity
- Proprietary livestock supplements
The platform is designed to reduce labour requirements and improve supplementation efficiency across large-scale grazing operations.
Existing Customer Base
The company said its technology is already deployed across more than 370,000 head of cattle in Australia.
Current customers include:
- AACo
- Stanbroke
- Kidman
- Paraway Pastoral Company
DIT AgTech plans to expand beyond northern Australian cattle operations into southern livestock regions and sheep markets.
The company is targeting more than one million livestock using its systems by FY29.
Expansion Plans In The Americas
DIT AgTech believes the Americas represent a major long-term growth opportunity.
The company noted that North and South America collectively have approximately 600 million head of cattle, compared with Australia's cattle population of around 29 million.
The US capital raise is intended to support market expansion in what the company describes as the world's largest beef market by value.
Financial Outlook
Founded and led by Mark Peart, DIT AgTech said it is currently generating approximately $10 million in annualised revenue.
The company forecasts:
- Revenue of approximately $24 million by FY28
- Earnings of around $6 million by FY28
- Future recurring revenue of $29.6 million
DIT AgTech also said it has achieved average annual revenue growth of 64% over the past four years.
Official Statement
Founder and CEO Mark Peart said the company was built around improving efficiency in large-scale livestock operations.
"We started with a very simple idea - how do you reduce labour, diesel and operational complexity across massive grazing systems while improving animal performance at the same time."
He added, "As conditions become more volatile globally, producers are looking much more closely at technologies that reduce recurring costs and make operations more resilient."
Focus On Methane Reduction And Sustainability
Beyond livestock supplementation, DIT AgTech is expanding the use of its infrastructure to support methane-reduction and carbon management projects.
The company said its water-based delivery system can administer methane-reducing additives in a measurable and scalable way.
DIT AgTech has also developed alternative supplement supply arrangements as global fertiliser and urea markets continue to face disruptions linked to export restrictions and geopolitical uncertainty.
Lowering Adoption Barriers
Following customer feedback, the company recently removed upfront costs for producers adopting the technology.
DIT AgTech said many livestock operators recognised the operational benefits of the system but found it difficult to justify large capital expenditures amid rising industry costs.
The company believes its partnership model will help accelerate adoption while building long-term recurring revenue streams.
What Happens Next?
DIT AgTech will continue its US crowdfunding campaign while pursuing expansion opportunities across North and South America.
The company aims to increase livestock adoption, expand recurring revenue and further develop methane-reduction solutions as producers increasingly focus on efficiency, automation and sustainability.
