      "Farmers are stuck in the dark ages when it comes to managing their livestock. They rely on manual processes and have no way to track data and understand the profitability of their animals. This leads to a mismatch in supply and demand, with processors often not knowing if they'll have enough animals on Monday. Farmers also lack the data they need to make informed decisions about breeding, feeding, and selling their animals."

Farmers can use Breedr's app to track key data points about their livestock, and then use that data to improve their farming practices.
