Weighing is a powerful performance measurement tool for farmers, as informed management decisions come from animal weight data that is accurate and easily accessible.
The benefits of weighing animals include:
• Measure feed conversion to maximise yield by monitoring weight gain over time
• Monitor animal health
• Reach animal weights prior to mating for better reproduction rates
• Determine weaning weights
• Select animals by weight for sale and slaughter
• Evaluate animal breeding performance for genetic selection
