We are a startup company based at Lincoln University.  We are Lincoln Alumni too, so we’ve all been where you are now and know the feeling of excitement, anticipation and potential hangovers that lie ahead!

Our co-founder Tony had the idea for Ag Assist after reading about the AirBnB and Uber success stories, and decided to join a few students for a beer to find out more and to see if his idea might fly.

In a nutshell, Ag Assist is an online platform where you can create an online CV (like LinkedIn), gain a verification badge (like Instagram), leave comments and ratings (like TradeMe), message (like Facebook Messenger) and find jobs (like Student Job Search).

The cool part about Ag Assist is the platform connects you with local farmers’ that need assistance.  This might be for one-off jobs, ongoing or regular jobs or even semester break jobs!

So download the app, register with Ag Assist and start making a difference to your time at university.

Kind regards,

Tony & the Ag Assist team.

Similar to many of you, Beck came to Lincoln with dreams of a career in the an Ag industry – she had a strong passion for dairy farming (but sadly came from Wellington!).  After 4 great years of study, along with meeting & making lifelong friends Beck married a fellow Alumni, had 3 kids and together they climbed the dairy ladder.

Now with her kids off being successful following their owns passions, Beck finds herself back where it all began. The name is the same, and the people who walk around are filled with the same passions to make a difference to the future of our food & fibre industries on NZ.

Beck says it is a privilege to meet with many of the young people who will be the future of our Ag industries, from those who aspire to be farmers, bankers, consultants through to our scientists & administrators, everyone brings their energy to our sector – its just awesome to be around this energy.
