From farmers using Herdwatch every day

FAQs
Questions farmers ask us
Is Herdwatch really free?
Yes. With a free account you can bring your herd in from AgFood, record animals moving in and remedy purchases, and map your fields, at no cost and with no card. If you want everything, you can start a 30-day free trial of the full app at any time.
What's the difference between a free account and the free trial?
The free account is free for as long as you like, with a limited set of features. The 30-day free trial gives you every feature; it needs a card, but you won't be charged if you cancel before the 30 days are up.
How do I get my animals into Herdwatch?
Sync your account with AgFood, either in the app or by contacting our support team. You can also send us a copy of your records and we'll add them for you.
