Grass growth forecasting with weather integration
Improves pasture productivity and livestock performance through data-driven grazing management
Detail description
This system uses GPS-enabled rising plate meters to collect weekly grass cover data, linking grass availability to nutrient use efficiency, milk production, and animal weight gain. Integrated weather and growth forecasts support grazing rotation planning and grassland management. Designed for progressive farmers, it enhances resilience to drought and heavy rainfall through data-driven decisions, optimising pasture productivity and livestock performance. The solution is a technological tool for sustainable grassland management.
