01
Worker Shortages
Many farm tasks need regular checking and manual work. This becomes harder when farms cannot find enough workers.
Current Stage · Research & Collaborator Discovery
Engineering the Future of Automated Farming
StarGrid is researching how practical automation can help Malaysian farms manage worker shortages, equipment problems, and the use of water and fertiliser. We are speaking with farmers and agricultural organisations before deciding what to build.
We welcome conversations with commercial growers, farm operators, cooperatives, and agricultural agencies.

Engineering-led Research
Guided by Field ResearchReal Farm Challenges
Farm Automation Must Work in the Real World.
Commercial farms need more than technology that looks good in a demonstration. New systems must consider real work, current equipment, power limits, farm conditions, and the people responsible for daily operations.
02
Equipment and Power Problems
Power trips, pump faults, and equipment failures can stop important farm work.
03
Water and Fertiliser Waste
It can be difficult to apply the right amount of water and fertiliser at the right time.
Current Research
We Are Learning From Farmers Before Building at Scale.
StarGrid is carrying out research with Malaysian farmers, farm managers, agricultural officers, cooperatives, researchers, and industry experts. We want to understand daily work, repeated problems, equipment limits, and the decisions people make to keep farms running.
✓A conversation about your farm and daily work
✓Discussion of repeated equipment or worker problems
✓A possible farm visit to understand how work is done
✓No sales pitch or purchase commitment
Your experience can help our engineers understand which problems are worth solving.
Research Process
How a Research Conversation Works
Tell Us About Your Farm
Share your location, farming activity, role, and the main problems you face.
Introductory Conversation
Our team will arrange a short discussion to understand your experience and current work.
Optional Field Visit
If you agree, we may visit your farm to understand the equipment and daily work.
Research Insights
What we learn will guide our engineering work and future product decisions.
Taking part in our research does not mean you need to buy, install, or test anything.
Collaborator Discovery
Help Us Understand the Realities of Malaysian Farming
We are looking for farmers and people working in agriculture who are willing to share their experience. What you tell us can help us understand where automation may be useful and practical.
