GrazingGrid

GrazingGrid is a web and mobile app that helps livestock producers plan and track rotational grazing using real field boundaries, stocking data, and forage growth estimates. Farmers upload or draw their paddocks on a map, enter herd sizes and classes, and the app generates realistic grazing schedules that account for rest periods, seasonal growth curves, and weather-driven pasture stress. Instead of vague rules of thumb, it gives concrete “move on this date” guidance and warns when you’re about to overgraze a paddock or underutilize a field. The app integrates satellite-based vegetation indices and local weather data to adjust recommended grazing days dynamically, rather than relying on static charts. It also tracks historical moves, average daily gains (if entered), and pasture performance over seasons so producers can see which paddocks are carrying their weight and which are lagging. This is not a magic button that fixes poor management; it’s a brutally honest planning and monitoring tool that shows, in numbers, when your stocking rate and grass simply don’t match. It’s designed to work offline in the field with sync when connectivity returns, because many farms have terrible internet.
