Aide à la décision
Use this tool to test one practical assumption before changing feed, weight, cost or stocking decisions.
Use the output as a planning estimate, not a replacement for local advice.
When the estimate matters, Essayer maintenant to connect it with records.
Use livestock units carefully.
Use this as a planning estimate and confirm local rules before regulatory decisions.
Factors can vary
Livestock unit factors may vary by country, program, breed, age and production stage.
Separate groups
Mature ewes, rams and lambs should be entered separately because their feed demand is different.
Connect to capacity
Use this with stocking rate and feed records to make a more practical capacity plan.
Livestock unit factor note
Livestock unit factors are not universal. Use the default values only as examples and replace them with the factors used by your country, extension service, grazing plan, or farm adviser.
Livestock unit assumptions
Livestock unit conversion is a simplification. It helps compare animal pressure, but it does not replace local grazing advice or pasture measurement.
Use LU with stocking rate
Use the Calculateur de chargement after livestock unit conversion to connect animal pressure to available land.
