Why Australian broiler growers switched from paper & Excel

Broiler Base Mate was built by a working chicken farmer who got sick of squinting at spreadsheets at 5am. Every feature exists because a real grower asked for it during a real batch.

📐 The exact maths your processor uses

FCR, corrected FCR (with the 0.27 slope at the 2.45 kg standard), cage rating, efficiency rating and grower payment per bird are calculated live as you enter your weigh-sheet. No more "I think we got 1.55" — you'll know to three decimal places before the truck has even left the farm. The same formulas Baiada and Ingham use to settle your batch payment.

📷 Snap a docket, walk away

Take a photo of any feed docket — Ingham's, Baiada, BPL Adelaide, Riverina, Manildra — and the AI reads the supplier, feed type, product code, tonnage, delivery date, ticket number and even the outloading bin. The reading drops straight into your feed history and the end-of-batch total. Your phone does the typing while you go fix a feeder.

📡 Works in the shed, even with bad reception

The mobile field reader queues your silo readings on the phone if mobile data drops out, then syncs the moment you walk back near the house Wi-Fi. No more "I'll enter it later" — and no more lost readings when 4G fails halfway down shed 6.

🧠 Farm Buddy — your AI feed advisor

An on-call assistant that looks at your current bird count, day-age, projected weight and remaining feed, then tells you which shed to drop the next truck into and how long your silos will last. If you ever asked an old hand "where should this load go?" — that's Farm Buddy, except it's awake at 3am with you.

🚚 End-of-batch in one click

When the last truck rolls off, your end-of-batch report is already done. Feed left in silos, last batch leftover, mortality breakdown, total tonnes delivered, batch costs and a PDF you can email to your supervisor — generated in the time it takes to make a cuppa. No more Sunday-night spreadsheet juggling.

🏘 Multi-farm support for Ops Managers

Running 4, 8 or 20 farms? The Ops Dashboard rolls every farm's batches, mortality, feed usage and unread grower chats into one screen. Push announcements to all growers, jump into any farm with a click, and run the entire region from your kitchen bench.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be tech-savvy to use Broiler Base Mate?

If you can take a photo and tap a green button, you're already qualified. The mobile reader has four tabs — Readings, Scan, Add and History. The Feed Program desktop view looks and works like a spreadsheet because it is one underneath, just live-synced. Most growers are up and running inside half an hour, and your kids or grandkids can be set up as readers for the shed walk-around.

Will it work with my processor's contract?

Yes. Broiler Base Mate ships with Baiada and Ingham contract formulas built in — FCR, corrected FCR at 2.45 kg, cage rating, efficiency rating and per-bird payment. If your processor uses a different slope, target weight or efficiency formula, drop us a note via the partner form and we'll add it for free. The maths is in code, not chiselled in stone.

What happens if my internet drops out mid-shed-walk?

Nothing. The mobile reader stores every silo reading, mortality count and feed docket on your phone first, then syncs to the cloud when reception comes back. You'll see a "📡 Offline — 3 queued" banner at the top so you know the readings are safe. The instant you're back in signal it flushes everything up automatically.

Is my farm data private and secure?

Yes. Your batch results, feed history and grower chat are walled off to your farm only. Every account is locked with Google sign-in or a magic link, no shared passwords. Backups run nightly. Your processor doesn't see your data unless you choose to share a PDF — what you grow, how you grow it, and what it cost stay in your kitchen.

How much does it cost?

A single farm subscription runs less than the cost of one bag of feed per month. Ops Managers running multiple farms get volume discounts that drop the per-farm price by up to 40%. There's no setup fee, no contract lock-in, and your first month is free so you can run a whole batch through and see what it does for you. Cancel anytime.

Can I install it on my phone like a real app?

Yes. On iPhone, tap the Share button in Safari and choose "Add to Home Screen". On Android, Chrome will pop up an "Install app" prompt the second time you visit. Once installed, Broiler Base Mate behaves exactly like a native app — full-screen, no browser bars, works offline. No App Store paperwork, no Play Store delays, no nagging update prompts.

What if I already use Excel and don't want to start over?

You don't have to. Broiler Base Mate's Feed Program is the same Excel sheet you've been using — same columns, same formulas, same template — just hosted online and shareable with your team. Import your existing batch xlsx, hit upload, and your historical data is right there. You'll never lose another file to a corrupted USB stick or a phone that took a swim in the water trough.

Who built it?

Jason Coverdale — a working broiler grower in regional Australia. Broiler Base Mate is built by Appcovi (ABN 13 659 165 642), supported by sponsors and a partner network of feed companies, silo monitor makers and rural charities. Every feature request goes to a grower-led roadmap, and 20% of every sponsor dollar goes to a rural charity of your choice.

Ready to leave Excel in the dust?

Try Broiler Base Mate free for your next batch. No credit card, no contract, no commitment. If it doesn't save you a Sunday afternoon, we'll refund every cent.
