Comprehensive Herd Management Features

Everything you need to optimize your dairy farm herd operations

Full Animal Registry

Register every animal on your farm — cows, buffalo, and goats — with tag numbers, breed, date of birth, and gender. Each animal gets a complete digital profile you can open from the web dashboard or mobile app.

Categories & Types

Organize your herd into types like milking, pregnant, pregnant-milking, calf, and breeder. Filter any list by category or age range to plan feeding, breeding, and treatments for the right animals in seconds.

Status Tracking

Track each animal as active, sold, or expired. Your working lists stay focused on the live herd, while sold and expired animals remain in your records for accurate lifetime history and reporting.

Weight Dashboard & Criteria

Record weight entries per animal and measure them against your configured weight criteria. Spot calves and heifers falling behind growth targets before it affects future production.

Lineage & Family Tracking

See every animal's dam, sire, and offspring at a glance. Family tracking supports smarter breeding selection, protects against inbreeding, and preserves your herd's genetic history.

Photos & Custom Fields

Attach a photo gallery to each animal for easy visual identification and add custom fields to capture the data that matters to your farm — purchase price, source, insurance details, and more.
