Why Uruguayan farmers use it
Uruguayan grazing mixes improved pasture with large areas of campo natural, and stocking decisions across both benefit from an actual figure rather than an eye estimate.
Pasture Ai works from the phone you already carry. Assessments save with date and GPS, so records build across seasons without extra admin.
Feed wedge and growth rate reporting help you set rotation length and see where pressure needs to come off.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use it on campo natural?
Yes, and self-calibration is worth using there — assess a few known paddocks and the app tightens its estimates for the pasture types you actually graze.
Does Pasture Ai work on Uruguayan farms?
Yes. Pasture Ai works anywhere you have a phone. The model reads sward height, density, colour and structure from the photo itself, so it is not tied to one country's pasture type.
Do I need a plate meter or any hardware?
No. A smartphone is the only device required. There is no plate meter, no C-Dax, no sensors and no calibration equipment to buy or maintain.
What does it measure?
Pasture cover in kgDM/ha, plus DM%, CP% (protein), MJME and NDF% for feed quality. Every assessment is saved against the paddock with the date and location.
Can I do a whole farm walk?
Yes. Assess each paddock in turn and the Farm Walk plan builds a feed wedge, calculates daily pasture growth rate in kgDM/ha/day and produces a PDF report.
