New Animal Performance integration designed to help farmers access key data insights

A new integration with Animal Performance Plus allows farmers to drilldown and interpret their animal data using Australian-owned livestock analysis software company Black Box Co.

Black Box’s software is cloud-based and designed for cattle producers to easily and intuitively access cattle data insights including price forecasting and predictions based on existing supply chain data. Working with Gallagher, the integration allows for end-to-end data analysis for farmers looking to increase profitability and improve operations on-farm. Data can flow directly into Black Box via WiFi and link to other information including feedlot and carcase feedback data.

So how does the integration work? Gallagher’s Animal Performance Plus collects data easily from the cloud, from a farmers’ TWR Weigh Scale or HR Handheld reader. From here, the information is collated for the user to view, and sent to Black Box, where the data is used to create predictions and allow the farmers to make data-backed decisions.

"I would definitely recommend the system to anyone wanting to understand what their herds are achieving, and how they can improve production". - Lisa Atkinson, North QLD.

To launch the integration, Gallagher was present at the Black Box site at premier event Beef Week in early May. Black Box was hosting education sessions through the week on how to use the integrated software and onboarding new customers in-person.
