Weighing & EID Systems

Accurate, Efficient & Data‑Driven Livestock Management

Weighing and EID systems are essential tools for modern livestock farming, providing accurate, real-time data that helps farmers make informed decisions about animal health, performance and productivity.

Whether you manage cattle, sheep or mixed livestock, reliable weighing equipment and electronic identification technology allow you to monitor growth rates, track treatments, manage breeding programmes and meet compliance requirements with ease.

As UK farming becomes increasingly data-driven, high-quality weighing and EID systems are vital for improving efficiency, profitability and welfare across the herd or flock.

Why Weighing & EID Systems Are Essential

Our comprehensive range of Weighing & EID Systems includes weigh scales, load bars, indicators, EID readers, weigh crates, integrated drafting units and software solutions designed to support farms of all sizes. Built for accuracy, durability and ease of use, these systems help streamline livestock management in both yard and field environments.

Accurate data is the foundation of effective livestock management. Weighing and EID systems offer a wide range of benefits:

  • Monitor growth rates to optimise feeding and finishing
  • Identify poor performers early for targeted intervention
  • Track treatments and withdrawal periods for compliance
  • Improve breeding decisions with individual animal records
  • Reduce labour through automated data capture
  • Enhance traceability for assurance schemes and audits
  • Support welfare‑friendly management with minimal stress handling

For UK farmers, these systems are indispensable for meeting industry standards and improving long-term productivity.
