FOFIA Connect App

The PT290-LF pairs with the free FOFIA Connect app over Bluetooth, so tag numbers go straight to your phone as you scan.

The app is made by FOFIA, not by Farm & Acre Co. If you need a hand getting it connected, give us a buzz on 0431 183 421.

Application & Use

Scan NLIS electronic ear tags in the yard or race without bending over. Single and continuous read modes cover drafting and bulk scanning, and Bluetooth or USB-C sends tag numbers to your phone, laptop or recording software.

It stores 3,000 reads on the device if you would rather download them later.

What Our Customers Say

Trusted by farmers across Australia.

"Highly recommend Farm & Acre Co. A great small family business run by a young local family who are having a real crack and having a go. It's awesome to see people backing themselves, supporting small farmers, and keeping things local. Every dollar spent helps local families and the farming community, not big corporates. Love what they're building and proud to support a business like this. Great products, great communication, great service."

Joe Reid
"Nestled in the heart of rural NSW, Farm and Acre Co is a testament to the beauty of small-scale, family-run business determined to provide the best product and service to their customers."
Raina Evans
"Unreal family business. Seeing a small family go out and have a go gets my vote every day."
Tyler Henry Littlewood
"I couldn't be happier with the service and products I've received from Farm & Acre Co. I've purchased both cattle ear tags and chainsaw chains, and the quality of everything has been outstanding. Their customer service is second to none—friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. Pricing is extremely competitive, especially considering the quality of the products, and the turnaround time was impressively fast. My order arrived quickly and exactly as promised. It's rare these days to find a business that delivers the best service, best products, and great value all at once, but Farm & Acre Co does exactly that. In my opinion, they're one of the best farm supply businesses in Australia, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone in the rural or agricultural industry."
