Don't just take our word for it.

"I run my farm next to a full-time job. I was looking for something to store and process farm information electronically, and be able to do it while you're in the field. iLivestock is a simple method to manage my pedigree flock of Suffolk sheep and helps me organise my farm admin."
"iLivestock has changed how I farm. Less paperwork, better decisions, and real insight that helps me breed smarter and spot problems before they escalate."
"It's very, very simple and very, very easy. That's what I like about it. iLivestock just makes your animal management throughout the year so much easier."
We didn't use any kind of technology before. We held paper records for the herd, which wasn’t ideal. There are different ways you can set it up. It’s figuring out how you can make it work for you. Not one right way of doing it: the best thing about it!
"Initially I used iLivestock to analyse my commercial flock, which led me to radically change breeds. More recently iLivestock has enabled me to start work on a large scale wool shedding genetics project."
"I instantly liked how eWeigh worked. The fact that weigh data goes straight into the iLivestock app, rather than having a different piece of equipment you’ve got to lug around and remember how to use, is a huge practical benefit."
"We use the eWeigh system to weigh and monitor lambs. Tracking their weight gain provides insight into when the lambs will be ‘ready’. As we sell our lamb directly to customers, this insight is an important guide to monitor orders."
"We can now record pregnancy diagnosis and weight recording right at the side of the crush, without having to rely on paper records or come back to the laptop later. This not only saves time but also ensures greater accuracy in our records."

"I am using iLivestock because it's something that I wanted to incorporate into my new farming venture. I like the flexibility, the user functionality of it, and that it is app controlled. It's something that I can apply to my farming whilst out in the field."
