Scored the way Argentina scores
Argentina's grass-fed beef herds run at scale across large paddocks where weighing is a full day's work. Herd Scan gives a photo-based estimate of liveweight and condition in kilograms, and the app is available in Spanish.
Herd Scan runs on the phone already in your pocket — iPhone, Android or any browser. No weigh crush, no load bars, no tags and no extra hardware. Assessments capture offline and sync when the phone is next in coverage. Weights are shown in kilograms (kg).
What Argentine farmers use it for
- Tracking growth on grazing cattle between weighings
- Condition checks on breeding cows before service
- Deciding when a mob is ready for finishing or sale
- Records shared with the vet or agronomist
Condition scoring standards vary by country — see published guidance from INTA. Herd Scan produces estimates to support your decisions; it is not a certified weight or a veterinary assessment.
How it works
- Photograph each animal — up to 20 animal photos per assessment.
- Herd Scan reads frame, fill, muscling and condition from the images.
- You get estimated liveweight, body condition score, breed and advice — saved to history and exportable as a PDF.
More detail on the method is on the dairy body condition scoring guide and the beef liveweight estimation page. Pricing is the same everywhere — see pricing.
Common questions
- Which body condition scale does it use in Argentina?
- It reports on the 1–5 (and 1–9 beef) condition scoring scales used on Argentine farms, so scores match the language your vet and nutritionist already use.
- What units are weights shown in?
- Estimated liveweight is shown in kilograms (kg).
- Do I need scales, a crush or EID tags?
- No. A phone camera is enough. Herd Scan estimates liveweight and condition from photos, and captures offline when there is no coverage.
- Is it available on iPhone and Android?
- Yes — on the App Store, Google Play, and in any browser.
