Using the Livestock Summary

If you would like to see a breakdown by Age Class within a paddock, you can select the ‘Age Class’ column in the Configure table section.

If you want the summary broken down by Age Class, Breed and Tag Colour you can select all 3, and have your animals grouped based on that criteria.

You can switch to the Animals/Mobs view to see all your individual animals or your mobs listed.

FAQ's


How do I change the columns on the summary table?
Tap the ‘Configure table’ button to change what you are grouping by and the columns you have displayed.

How do I record against all mobs in the paddock?

You can do so by just tapping the Animal Record button in the bottom panel. This will automatically select all mobs in the paddock.

What does the horizontal selection icon mean?
This is a partial selection. As you move between Summary and Mob views there may be a partial selection of a row in the summary table based on which mobs you have selected/deselected. There is no issue here but it is just indicating that when you create a record only some of the mobs in that group are selected.

How do I access the grazing insights?

Grazing insights are only available on Performance plans. Reach out to the Support team if you’re interested to learn more.
