5 Ways to Save Money on
Your Sheep Farm in NSW
1. Implement Rotational Grazing
Using rotational grazing techniques allows you to manage your pasture efficiently. By monitoring pasture conditions, you can prevent overgrazing, improve sheep health, and increase wool and meat yields.
2. Monitor Your Water Remotely
Utilise a Water Level Sensor to keep track of water levels in troughs and dams. This ensures your sheep have continuous access to fresh water, promoting better health and growth while reducing manual checks.
3. Automate Pump Operations
Automating your pump operations is essential for maintaining efficient operations. By using smart solutions, you can control when pumps operate, ensuring they run only when necessary, thus cutting energy costs.
