Know your feed cost per head.
Without a $15K scale system.

Set up in 5 minutes. Log a feeding in 30 seconds.
Two worlds of feed management. Nothing in between.

Feed Manager fills the gap
Purpose-built for daily feed tracking. Free. No hardware required. Works for 50 head or 5,000.
Everything your feeder needs at 5am.
Everything you need at month-end.
Built for operations where the person mixing feed is not the same person reviewing costs.
Define your rations
Set up rations as simple ingredient percentages. Assign each ration to a pen. Your feeder sees exactly what goes in each batch — no guesswork.
Log feedings from the barn
Your feeder opens the app, picks the pen, enters the weight. 30 seconds. Works without cell signal and syncs when they're back in range.
See your cost per head per day
The number every operation needs and almost nobody has. Feed Manager calculates it automatically from your feeding logs and ingredient costs.
Track deliveries & inventory
Log every load that comes in the gate with vendor, price, and ticket number. Always know what's on hand and what you're paying per ton.
Your whole team, one account
The owner, the feeder, and the bookkeeper all see the same data. Invite your team for free. No per-seat charges.
Feed-first, not farm-everything
We don't do breeding records or crop rotation. Every screen is about rations, ingredients, pens, and feedings. One thing, done right.
Up and running in 5 minutes
Add your pens
Name your pens, set head counts, pick your operation type. Takes a minute.
Set up ingredients & rations
Add your feed ingredients with costs. Build rations as ingredient percentages. Assign rations to pens.
Start logging
Your feeder logs each feeding from their phone. You log deliveries when they arrive. That's it.
See the numbers
Feed cost per head per day, ingredient usage trends, inventory levels, delivery history — all calculated automatically.

“I know I'm spending too much on feed but I can't tell you exactly where.”
That's the most common thing we hear from farmers under 500 head. Feed is 60-70% of your operating cost. If you can't measure it, you can't manage it. Feed Manager gives you the numbers without the overhead.
Built for beef and dairy
Beef cattle
Feedlots, cow-calf, backgrounding, finishing. Track rations by pen, log what the mixer puts out, and know your cost of gain without a $15K scale system.
Dairy
TMR tracking for every pen and group. Log feedings, monitor ingredient costs, and keep delivery records — without replacing your mixer scale setup.
Stop guessing. Start tracking.
No credit card. No per-head pricing. No 30-day trial that runs out during calving season.
Free for your whole team, forever.
