The platform
Nine things, in the order they matter to somebody keeping animals. None of it assumes a laptop, a good connection or a spare afternoon.
Every farmer is registered once and issued an identifier they keep — printed on a card, read down a phone line, and joining everything filed under it: their ward, their animals, their cases, their cover. A farmer who moves keeps the number they were given.
Nobody tags five thousand chickens, and a platform that insists on it does not get used. A flock is one record with a head count, and every death, sale and stocking moves that count through a ledger nothing can edit after the fact.
For herds where individuals are tracked: tag numbers, breed, parentage and a lifetime history. Every weight, movement, treatment and vaccination on one timeline. Open an animal and you see everything that has ever happened to it.
A farmer reports a concern, a vet triages it, records findings and treatments, and closes it with an outcome. Nothing is lost in a phone call or a notebook.
Recording a treatment computes the withdrawal period from the drug itself. You can see at a glance which animals must stay out of the food chain, and until when.
Feed recorded in kilograms and sample weighings turn a flock into figures a farmer can act on: feed conversion, hen-day production, cost per bird and what the cycle actually made.
Lambuvet Protect writes cover over a flock, and a claim is assessed against that flock’s own ledger — what was recorded on the days in question, written down as it happened rather than remembered afterwards.
Baseline, midline and endline surveys put the same questions to the same farmers, so impact is the difference between the first answer and the last — counted only across farmers who answered both.
A farm owner sees their farms. A vet sees the farms they are posted to. Every screen, every export and every search obeys the same rule.
