    Grazing Utilization Without the Spreadsheet

    When you move animals between pastures, BarnFront automatically calculates grazing days. Combined with forage data and acreage, you get utilization percentages without manual tracking.

    Pasture Mapping

    Define pastures with acreage. Track capacity and actual stocking rates.

    Satellite Powered Forage Data

    Satellite-derived forage estimates updated throughout the grazing season. USDA fallback where needed.

    Animal Unit Days (AUD)

    Grazing days calculated automatically from location changes. No manual logging.

    Land Cost Allocation

    Allocate pasture costs to animals based on AUD. Flows to cost per head automatically.

    BarnFront provides standards-based financial reports including Balance Sheet (assets, liabilities, and equity), Profit & Loss Statement (revenue, expenses, and net income), and Cash Flow Statement (money movement tracking). Reports can be generated for your entire organization or filtered by specific ranch.

    BarnFront tracks Animal Unit Days (AUD) automatically when you move animals between pastures. Combined with pasture acreage and forage data, the system calculates grazing capacity vs actual utilization so you can see which pastures are over- or under-utilized.

    BarnFront uses satellite-powered forage data where available, with USDA data as a fallback. The data source is clearly labeled so you know what you're looking at. Forage estimates update automatically throughout the grazing season.

    Yes! BarnFront is designed to work fully offline. You can view all your data, make changes, and the system will auto-sync when you reconnect. An indicator shows when you're offline and how many pending changes need to sync. Perfect for working in remote pastures.

    Yes! BarnFront is fully mobile-responsive with touch-friendly interface, pull-to-refresh, offline-first design, native date pickers, and responsive dialogs. You can manage your entire ranch operation from your phone or tablet while working in the field.

    If you make changes offline and someone else modifies the same data online, BarnFront will show you a dialog with the conflicting changes and give you options to retry, discard your changes, or handle multiple conflicts at once. You'll always see clear descriptions of what changed.

    Yes. All data is isolated by organization and ranch (other users cannot see your data), stored securely in encrypted databases, backed up regularly, and protected by industry-standard security practices.

    BarnFront rolls up all costs attributable to each animal: purchase price, allocated feed and supplies, health treatments, grazing costs based on pasture days, and distributed overhead. This happens continuously so you can see current cost per head at any time.

    Stop Guessing. Start Knowing.

    Grazing utilization, cost per head, and profitability — all visible, all the time.
