The Connected Platform

Everything to read, weigh and manage your livestock.

Sends live weights straight to the iLivestock app from the crate or crush. At the same time, scan your animal’s EID tag to instantly identify which animal is on the scales.

iLivestock automatically records accurate weights against the correct sheep or cattle, giving you clear performance data and full traceability without slowing down your workflow.

Log all of your records directly from the field, with no admin later. Never lose a notebook, medical record, or that important piece of information you swore you’d remember next time.

Fully Integrated Crush System: eWeighbars under the crush weigh the sheep and transmit data to the eWeigh weigh head. The eTagReader is used to read the EID tag for identification of the sheep, and both the weigh head and the reader connect to the iLivestock app where data is captured and stored for later recall.

All-in-one precision technology

As an all-in-one platform for cattle and sheep, iLivestock combines farm software, reading and weighing tools, and dedicated support – helping farmers easily manage their livestock, maximise productivity, and improve profitability.
