Herdwatch is the No. 1 Farm Management software in the UK, helping our members simplifying record-keeping and compliance tasks. Our user-friendly app streamlines farm operations and optimises efficient decision making on farms nationwide.

Herdwatch, the number one farm management software, is now used on over 18,000 farms across the UK.

The app which allows farmers to manage their farms at their fingertips caters for both livestock and sheep farmers with Herdwatch for cattle, and their brand new sheep management app Flockwatch, catering for all sheep farmers.

The app saves farmers, on average, three hours per week on farm paperwork, increasing productivity on the farm and allowing farmers to monitor and manage their herd/flocks performance more efficiently and ultimately increase profitability.

Cornwall farmers Kate and Kevin Hoare have been using Herdwatch on their dairy farm for many years now as Kate describes it as her “supernanny”.

The app has saved the couple hours on farm paperwork as well as increasing productivity as they always have their herds information at hand.

“We use the app for everything from tracking medicines, registering calves and movements, breeding management, doing our reports and more.”

The couple who balance a young family with full time farming are extremely thankful for the app when it comes around to farm assurance inspection time.

“The last inspection we had last summer was super easy. I pulled out the reports from the app in seconds and just emailed them onto the inspector. Before, I would have had to show him the reams of paperwork I would have written up, it was all very messy.

Herdwatch has definitely made farm assurance and Arla inspections a lot easier.”
