FeedTally and the paper-docket problem on dairy farms
FeedTally is a proposed tool for New Zealand dairy farms that would turn photographed feed-delivery dockets into totals by feed type, shed and merchant. Its core scanning and record-keeping features are still being built.

- Worth noticing
- Its sample turns a 27.60-tonne 2:1 PKE/DDG load into separate 18.40- and 9.20-tonne entries; the figures are demo data.
Field notes
The page's example shows a 27.60-tonne PKE/DDG blend represented as 18.40 tonnes of PKE and 9.20 tonnes of DDG; it labels the figures as made-up demo material. FeedTally says workers would photograph deliveries, correct flagged readings at the shed, and keep docket images alongside records. It also describes weekly through annual breakdowns and CSV export, while noting that scanning, the delivery log and dashboard are still being built.
