How Herdwatch works
We'll set you up quickly
Our team can sync your herd through Agfood and ICBF, so your animal and milk yield and milk production records appear instantly in the app.
Record on the go
Whether you’re registering calves, treating animals or reviewing milk records, simply open the livestock app and record the details. Even if you’re offline, it will sync automatically later.
Stay compliant
By recording tasks in Herdwatch as you go, audit time becomes stress-free. Simply head to the Reports section, where your audit-ready records are already organised and waiting.
What Irish farmers say about Herdwatch
The Herdwatch app is really easy to use. You have all the information you want, I'd recommend it to anyone, it changes the way you go about farming completely.
We would have been writing things down on bits of paper and transferring them from one place to another before, it is now done in less than 30 seconds on my phone.
Use in apps on the farm has increased and Herdwatch would be the main app; it’s used every day on the farm, several times a day
Key features designed for farmers
Medicine recording and compliance
Herdwatch lets you record treatments in seconds and automatically tracks withdrawal periods, ensuring every dose is logged accurately. Simply scan the medicine, select the animal, and your records are instantly audit-ready.
Instant calf registration
Record newborn calves straight from the calving pen and submit registrations directly to AgFood with no paperwork or delays. Batch entry makes busy periods easier, reducing errors and keeping your compliance fast, simple, and fully up to date
Milk performance data
Track your cows’ milk production in real time at both herd and individual level, with clear insights on SCC, volume, fat, protein, and yield trends. Herdwatch helps you spot issues early, like rising SCC so you can act before performance drops. With all milk data accurate and digital in one place, you can make better decisions that improve herd health and profitability
