Digital station management built for Australian conditions. NLIS compliant, works offline across the outback, and powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help you run a more profitable operation.
Australia's cattle industry is one of the largest in the world, with approximately 23 million head of cattle across 47,000 beef cattle businesses. The industry is worth around A$17 billion annually and beef is one of Australia's top agricultural exports, shipped to over 100 countries including Japan, South Korea, the United States, and China. Australian beef is renowned globally for its quality, consistency, and food safety credentials.
Australian cattle operations vary enormously in scale and style. Northern pastoral stations in Queensland, the Northern Territory, and Western Australia can exceed one million acres, running thousands of head across vast, remote landscapes. Southern operations in Victoria, New South Wales, and Tasmania tend to be smaller but more intensive, with higher-quality improved pastures and more frequent handling of stock.
This diversity demands a cattle management platform that's as flexible as the Australian landscape itself. Agrodeo adapts to every Australian operation — from a small-scale breeder in the Gippsland hills to a massive pastoral company running multiple stations across the Barkly Tableland.
Australia's National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) is one of the world's most comprehensive livestock traceability programs. Every bovine must carry an approved NLIS device (RFID ear tag or rumen bolus) that records its movements throughout the supply chain. Property-to-property transfers, saleyard transactions, and processor consignments must all be recorded on the NLIS database. Agrodeo helps graziers maintain accurate on-property records that complement their NLIS obligations, tracking each animal's device number, mob allocation, and movement history.
Breeding management on Australian properties has been revolutionised by BREEDPLAN, the genetic evaluation system that generates Estimated Breeding Values (EBVs) for economically important traits. Whether you're running a registered Angus stud, a Brahman breeding program in the tropics, or a commercial herd using terminal sires, Agrodeo allows you to record joining dates, bull allocations, pregnancy test results, and calving data. The platform calculates key metrics like conception rates, calving percentages, and weaning rates that drive breeding decisions.
Health management varies significantly across Australia's climatic zones. Northern operations contend with cattle ticks (Rhipicephalus australis), buffalo fly, and heat stress. Southern operations manage issues like Johne's Disease, internal parasites, and cold stress in calves. Agrodeo's health management module accommodates all these scenarios, allowing graziers to set up location-specific health protocols with appropriate treatments, withholding periods, and Export Slaughter Interval (ESI) tracking.
Pasture management is critical for sustainable and profitable grazing in Australia. With the variability of Australian rainfall and the ever-present threat of drought, managing stocking rates to match carrying capacity is essential. Agrodeo helps graziers monitor paddock utilisation, plan stock rotations, and track the body condition of their cattle relative to available feed resources.
The offline capability of Agrodeo is particularly crucial in Australia, where many properties have limited or no mobile coverage. Graziers can enter data during mustering, drafting, or yard work without any internet connection. The app syncs automatically when connectivity becomes available, whether that's back at the homestead or on a trip to town.
The financial tools in Agrodeo help Australian graziers track costs per head, analyse the profitability of different enterprises, and make informed decisions about buying and selling stock based on real data rather than guesswork.

The National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) is Australia's system for identifying and tracking cattle. All cattle must carry an approved NLIS device, and all property-to-property movements must be recorded. State-based biosecurity programs (e.g., Johne's Disease Market Assurance Program) add additional requirements. Agrodeo helps maintain on-property records that complement NLIS obligations and support biosecurity compliance.
Australia's cattle herd reflects its diverse climate zones. Tropical north: Brahman, Droughtmaster, Santa Gertrudis, and Belmont Red. Temperate south: Angus (the dominant breed by registration numbers), Hereford, Murray Grey, and Shorthorn. Continental breeds (Charolais, Simmental, Limousin) are used as terminal sires. Composite breeds like Stabiliser and RAS are gaining popularity. Agrodeo supports all breeds and breed society data.
