Say goodbye to data duplication.
Meat processor
Killsheet data from leading processors allows farmers to compare suppliers, monitor carcass quality and improve efficiencies of the value chain.
ANZCO is one of New Zealand's largest exporters, has sales of 1.7 billion and employs over 3,000 staff worldwide. Farmers supplying ANZCO can manually upload kill sheets into FarmIQ to help them join the dots between farm inputs and the value of farm outputs.
About the integration
An API development at FarmIQ has opened the door for automated data sharing with meat processors throughout New Zealand. The days of having to print kill sheets and manually enter data into the likes of Excel can be a thing of the past if you're a FarmIQ user.
ANZCO's kill sheet data will automatically flow into the platform, enabling farmers to make more accurate and timely decisions by having access to their kill sheets in an easy-to-read report and exportable format.
Whether you're looking to improve quality to achieve a premium or purely increase carcass yield, FarmIQ's integration with ANZCO puts you on the front foot.
The key benefits include the following:
Mob Performance – understand what factors (i.e. animal breed, feed type, treatments, stocking rates) influence carcass characteristics so you can make the most profitable decisions for your business.
Seasonal Performance – understand how carcass characteristics change across and between seasons so you can make the most profitable decisions for your business.
Benchmarking – measuring performance against others in the region or around the country.
Supplier Performance – the data will help finishers purchase animals from suppliers who produce better-performing animals.
EID Finishing – the data will allow farmers to utilise reporting functionality in FarmIQ to compare the performance of individual animals pre and post-slaughter.
The ANZCO integration is only available on our Performance+ and Pro packs.

Tru-Test is a global market leader in safe and efficient livestock handling solutions.
About the integration
FarmIQ has been working with Tru-Test for several years to build robust integration between their weigh scales and FarmIQ. FarmIQ currently supports integration with XRS and XRS2 wands and ID3000 and 5000, XR3000 and 5000.
You can use the integration to:
Track animal weights against targets to identify animals that need special treatment
Perform on-farm trials to compare groups of animals to determine the impact of alternate farm management decisions (e.g. sire genetics) on live-weight production
Build a performance history against individual dams within a flock or herd to help identify those animals to retain for breeding replacements, those to mate to terminal sires and those to cull
Meet NAIT and processor compliance requirements
Gallagher has been manufacturing and selling animal management products in the rural sector for more than 80 years. The company has earned a worldwide reputation for understanding the needs of farmers and producing durable products that deliver great performance and value.
About the integration
Current functionality allows data captured on Gallagher TW-1, TW-3, TSi, and TSi2 weigh scales to flow into FarmIQ via the FarmIQ mobile app.
Users set up a Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection between the weigh scale indicator and the FarmIQ app to share data. Both Android and iOS are supported. Once connected, files containing trait and production data (breed, sex, weight, condition score, pregnancy scanning) can flow into FarmIQ.
Data can be captured against an individual EID or individual measurements made against a mob. In addition to connecting to Gallagher weigh scale indicators, the FarmIQ mobile app can connect directly to Gallagher HR3, 4 and 5 EID tag readers for simply uploading files containing EID tag numbers for NAIT purposes.
Why our farmers love the integration:
Seamless data sharing
Animal weighings, scannings, condition scores and treatments recorded in the field sync instantly with FarmIQ.
Eliminate manual file transfers, Bluetooth/WiFi dropouts, and delays.
Smarter farm insights
Analyse weight gain trends to make informed decisions on culling, feeding, and breeding.
Access complete animal and mob histories, including health treatments, paddock rotation, and feed records.
AI-driven features
Automatically log and record health treatments from Gallagher data.
Stay compliant without extra paperwork - FarmIQ updates inventory for you.
Full data ownership
Your data stays yours. Use it how you want, when you want.
OSPRI's National Animal Identification and Tracing (NAIT) system is an online tool that provides fast and accurate tracing of NAIT animals to support disease management in New Zealand.
The National Animal Identification and Tracing (NAIT) scheme links people, property, and livestock in New Zealand. Under the scheme, cattle and deer are traced using NAIT-approved radio frequency identification device (RFID) ear tags. Once tagged, animals are registered in the national database. Registering with NAIT and updating your NAIT account is a legal obligation for all farmers and person(s) in charge of animals (PICA).
About the integration
Our automated integration with NAIT saves farmers time and effort. Record any stock births, deaths, tag replacements and movements in FarmIQ. The details will automatically flow through to NAIT, ensuring your NAIT obligations are met and saving any double-handling. This is a core feature of the Enterprise Dairy and Enterprise Livestock packs.
To allow FarmIQ to report to NAIT, you need to do a few things:
Give us written permission to report to NAIT on your behalf
Ensure that all NAIT/EID tags are loaded into FarmIQ for all stock
Maintain an accurate stock rec in FarmIQ by recording all births, deaths, purchases, sales and grazing movements
Record all off-farm stock movements (other than sales to a processor) with the NAIT details of the receiving party
If you're already a FarmIQ customer and would like us to manage your NAIT compliance, please get in touch. You will need your NAIT number and have the authority to permit us to act on your behalf.

Financial and modelling
Figured is the country's leading farm financial management tool for dairy, livestock and crop operations, encompassing production tracking, budgeting and forecasting features.
Figured believes farmers, bankers, accountants and rural advisors should be working together, collaboratively planning for a farm's future using real-time financial information - so they've built a world-class solution, integrated with leading accounting software Xero and partnered with forward-thinking global banks who believe that Figured is a game-changer for their farming customers.
About the integration
FarmIQ has been working alongside the Figured team to deliver a data connection requested by many of our joint customers, meaning stock transactions can now be automatically moved from FarmIQ into Figured. This includes births, deaths, sales and purchases, and sale and purchase weights.
Lost and found information, trait changes and ageing up events will all be transferred automatically to Figured.
This powerful integration gives farmers and their advisors a real-time view of the farm's performance to plan ahead confidently. More data-sharing capabilities between the two platforms are also planned for the near future.
