How the Pasture Planner Works

Draw your fields to scale and split them into paddocks, choosing the forage in each (cool-season grass, alfalfa, warm-season natives, annuals, browse and more). Enter your herd by animal and weight — or count it from your trackers — and the planner works out how much forage they eat, how many days each paddock lasts, how long it needs to rest and how many paddocks you need. The Grazing tab builds a rotation schedule you can reorder and add to your phone calendar; the Forage budget compares what the pasture grows each month with what the herd eats and tells you how much hay to put up. One button sends your paddocks to the Pasture tracker. Try it without an account, or join free to save your plans and share them with your household.
