Livestock management software helps farmers record and track livestock, from birth to sale and everything in between. While livestock most often refers to cattle, it can also refer to other animals such as chickens, pigs, goats, and even rabbits. Livestock management products offer animal inventory management, from number of livestock to height, weight, health, and fertility. Livestock management may provide feed costing and performance metrics. Often, livestock management systems may provide reporting capabilities to better inform users. They may also offer financial tracking to record profits from livestock sales. These products may coexist with crop management products or be a part of larger farm management systems.
To qualify for inclusion in the Livestock Management category, a product must:
- Provide recorded data of cattle from birth to sale
- Offer inventory management for livestock movements and measurables
- Optimize profit by providing granular insights into the feeding of livestock
