Product update: Horses, map capabilities, people management and more

Hold your horses – we’ve now got horses as a stock option in FarmIQ!

📱💻 Horses as stock

 If you’ve got horses on farm, you can now add them as stock in FarmIQ!

  • Create transaction activities including sales, purchases, births and deaths

  • Move horse mobs between paddocks, log animal health treatments, and record weights and breeding information

  • Specify horse age and sex from a range of in-built options, including foals, yearlings, fillies, geldings, colts and stallions

  • Specify the breed from a list, such as Appaloosa, Clydesdale and Kaimanawa

  • You can still enter horses as assets if they are working horses as opposed to stock

Horses are available in the FarmIQ Essentials, Performance+ and Pro packs. As with our other stock types, there are different recording capabilities in each pack.

Do more from the map on web

💻 More map web capability

  • See broadcast location(s) on web. Recently on mobile we released a feature to share your location with other staff and specify whether it is an emergency or urgent task that needs attention. You can now see that information on the web app too, allowing everyone to keep updated.

  • New functionality to toggle on/off ALL feature icons so you can avoid clicking over and over again. Now you can simply use the toggle to show or hide all features.

  • When drawing a new feature layer you can keep existing layers on to see where things already are – for example, if you want to add water valve locations as a layer you can keep the water pipe layer on and add the valves on top.

The new map capabilities on web are available in all of the FarmIQ packs.

Look after your most important asset on farm: your people

📱 People management 

More people management features on mobile means you can update staff and contractor information more easily whenever you need.

  • Add new staff and contractors and their employment details, such as role on farm, assigned hours, qualifications, and salary

  • Choose the type of FarmIQ access and approvals each person has

  • Update people’s contact details and emergency contact information

The new people management features are available in all of the FarmIQ packs.

Produce perfect paddocks on mobile

📱 Paddock drawing

New map drawing features on mobile allow you to draw or update paddocks with a few simple swipes.

  • Split internal paddocks into one or more new paddocks

  • Draw new external neighbouring blocks that you have leased or purchased and see them on your main map view

  • Edit existing fence lines if you want to change paddock size or make room for a new laneway, for example

The new paddock drawing features are available in all of the FarmIQ packs.
