GanFarm Livestock Module
The GanFarm Livestock Module centralizes all herd data in one place, integrating traceability, health, reproduction, feeding, movements, accounting, and smart reports. It enables full lifecycle management for each animal — from birth to sale — with technical, economic, and sanitary records. Includes detailed animal profiles, bulk actions, task tracking, genealogy, financial valuation, and real-time dashboards. A key tool for modern, data-driven, and traceable livestock management.
Complete herd management with integrated traceability, health, and productivity
The Livestock Module is the heart of the GanFarm system.
Designed for ranchers, veterinarians, technicians, and farm administrators, it centralizes all animal data in an intuitive, visual, and connected environment.
With GanFarm, every animal has its own digital record — from birth to sale — including every treatment, weighing, reproduction, or movement.
🌱 Overview
In the Animal List, the producer can view and manage all herd records in one place.
The top panel provides an instant summary of active animals by category: cattle, poultry, males, females, and more.
These indicators offer a global view of the herd’s status, helping producers make quick decisions without spreadsheets.
Each registered animal includes complete information:
- Individual or group identification (tag, name, or label)
- Species, breed, and animal type
- Sex, age, and status
- Last recorded weight
- Productive category or main breed (e.g., Cattle / Holstein, Bradford, Hereford, etc.)
The system also allows creating, importing, or exporting animals in bulk — simplifying initial setup or data backups in formats compatible with official traceability systems.
🔍 Advanced Filters and Bulk Actions
The main view includes a powerful dynamic filtering system, allowing users to search animals by:
- Type or species
- Breed
- Gender
- Status (active, sold, deceased, etc.)
- Birth dates
- Weight range
- Owner or establishment
With a single click, users can perform bulk actions such as move, sell, delete, edit, record treatments or feeding events, create tasks, or add group notes.
This functionality saves time in daily operations and avoids repetitive work.
📋 Complete Animal Profile
By entering the individual record (“View Animal”), users access a detailed chronological view of all related data.
Each animal has a top panel with specialized tabs organized by function:

- This data helps evaluate profitability and adjust feeding strategies to improve performance.
📦 Inputs and Investments per Animal
Each animal can have associated cost entries such as treatments, feeding, reproduction, or purchase.
These records integrate with the accounting module, providing a complete financial overview of the herd.
📈 Performance and Productivity
The Performance submodule offers visual reports to analyze production by month, growth stage, or category.
Users can filter by date, batch, or technician, and compare productivity over different periods.
🧬 Reproduction, Breeding, and Genealogy
GanFarm simplifies reproductive control and genetic traceability.
The Reproduction section displays:
- Conception rate
- Failed pregnancy rate
- Last exposure (days)
- Success rate by method (natural, AI, embryo transfer)
Producers can record services, confirm pregnancies, and track full reproductive history.
In the Breeding section, the system automatically links calves to their mothers and sires, including birth date, status, weight, and weaning.
This allows automatic generation of family trees for bloodline and performance tracking.
👨👩👧 Siblings and Family Relationships
The Siblings section connects animals with the same parents, enabling comparative performance analysis by genetics and growth traits.
🧠 Tasks: Activity Management and Tracking
The Tasks section allows users to create, assign, and monitor specific activities related to animals or groups — from health checks to feeding controls.
Each task includes:
- Title and detailed description
- Priority and status (pending, in progress, completed)
