Note: The estimation ruler is dependent on your farm region and assumes an average vegetation quality. By default, the ruler is based on the MLA Pasture Ruler. For farms in the US, it is sourced from West Virginia University.

What happens when offline?

When your device is offline, you will see a warning banner on the paddock summary to indicate the device is offline and some calculations will not be updated until the device is back online.

You will however be able to see the last known values for feed on offer, pasture growth rate, target residual and available feed on offer. While still offline, you will be able to enter new records for these values and have that new value visible on the paddock summary page. Once you are back online, any additional calculations for the grazing data will be updated.

If this is not the experience you have, please contact Customer Support.
