Your pasture, at a glance
Average Pasture Cover, daily growth, pasture wedge — all in one view.
The problem
Running blind on pasture costs you
- Unsure how much feed is actually on farm
- Hard to plan grazing ahead
- Risk of running short (or wasting surplus)
- Farm walks don't always happen on time
Most farmers are still relying on guesswork or outdated info.
The solution
Know your pasture position — every day
GrassManager gives you a clear, up-to-date view of your pasture so you can make confident grazing decisions.
Simple, reliable, built for real farms
No overcomplication — just what you need to run your farm better.
Works even if you miss a farm walk
Built for NZ pasture conditions
No spreadsheets or complicated setup
Designed for fast, practical decisions
How it works
Three steps that turn pasture data into decisions
Pasture growth is modelled daily
Using weather and proven NZ pasture data
Your farm data keeps it grounded
Farm walks and inputs keep things on track
You get clear grazing decisions
Simple numbers you can actually use
What you can do
- Track average pasture cover (APC)
- Monitor growth rates
- Plan grazing rotations
- Stay ahead of feed deficits
- Make faster, more confident decisions
Plan supplements and cover in 7-day periods
Match growth against demand across a whole season. Pre-fill growth from regional models, plug in herd counts, and see projected cover week-by-week. Paste directly from Excel if you already have a budget.
- Projected cover per week
- Demand vs supply totals
- Copy, rename, duplicate between seasons
Plan rotations across every herd
Map AM/PM paddocks for each herd, week by week. The model uses your plan to sharpen predictions — so forecasts reflect the rotation you're actually running, not a generic average.
- Multi-herd view
- Quick search & extend by 7 days
- Plans feed back into growth predictions
See how you compare against your region
Every farm walk is compared against regional benchmarks — growth rate, average cover, rotation length, daily demand. Smart Insights spell out what's above, below, or around average so you know where to focus.
- Regional ranking per metric
- Plain-language insights
- Updated with every walk
Designed for how farms actually run — not perfect data scenarios
Handles missed measurements
Stays consistent week to week
Focuses on practical accuracy — not overcomplicated models
Always improving
We're continuously refining the system, including additional data sources to further improve pasture tracking over time.
