Track Livestock Numbers, DSE & Gross Margins in One Place

Whether you run cattle, sheep, a feedlot, or a mixed enterprise, P2PAgri tracks the numbers that matter: head counts, gross margins, stocking rates, and the costs that eat into your bottom line. From opening stock to closing stock, every animal is accounted for.

How Do I Track Livestock Numbers, DSE and Profitability?

Managing livestock profitability means tracking numbers, movements, sales, purchases, and costs across multiple classes and enterprises. P2PAgri handles over 20 livestock enterprise types with full reconciliation, DSE calculations, stocking rate analysis, and gross margin reporting — all connected to your broader farm financial picture.

17+ Livestock Enterprise Types

P2PAgri has 17+ livestock enterprise templates covering sheep (merino, trading, prime lambs), cattle (beef breeding, trading, stud), goats, pigs, feedlot, buffalo, and deer.

Full Livestock Reconciliation

Track every movement in and out of your herd or flock: opening numbers, born/weaned, purchased, sold (with price and buyer), died/lost, transferred between enterprises, and closing numbers. The reconciliation balances automatically.

DSE Calculations & Stocking Rates

P2PAgri automatically calculates DSE (Dry Sheep Equivalent) ratings for your livestock classes and shows your stocking rate per hectare. Compare stocking rates across enterprises and paddocks to optimise your carrying capacity.

P2PAgri creates a model of both the total DSEs being demanded from your livestock enterprises against the DSE being supplied by pastures and supplementary feeding. This gives a great tool to manage either under or over grazing!

Livestock Gross Margin Analysis

See your gross margin per DSE and per hectare for each livestock enterprise. P2PAgri factors in sales income, variable costs by livestock class, health costs, supplementary feeding costs, freight and cartage, sales commission and shearing costs. Compare your livestock gross margin directly against crop enterprises on a per-hectare and total gross margin basis.

Health Cost & Supplementary Feeding

P2PAgri has dedicated cost tracking for shearing, animal health, supplementary feeding, and freight. Track veterinary, drench, vaccination and other health costs by livestock class. When seasons turn dry, supplementary feeding can be your biggest variable cost — P2PAgri tracks feed costs, quantities, and types so you know the true cost of carrying stock.

Wool & Fibre Tracking

For wool growers, P2PAgri tracks wool income by line, shearing costs, animal health, supplementary feeding, and freight — giving you a clear view of wool enterprise profitability.
