Essential information at a glance

When an animal enters the handling equipment, Macrostock Scale will automatically display essential information, including current weight, previous weight, weight gains/losses, and alerts assigned to the animal.

Multi-criteria automated drafting

Macrostock Scale can automatically draft animals based on custom criteria such as weight, gain, trait and mob. If you want to inspect animals before leaving the handling equipment, you can set the draft to hold the gates closed if they meet specific criteria.

Data Recording

With Macrostock Scale, you can easily keep track of your livestock's traits or illnesses and automatically record treatment doses when paired with the Te Pari Revolution dosing gun.

MacroStock Studio

Macrostock Studio is a livestock management solution that helps analyse data and visualise trends. The Te Pari cloud connection synchronises your data and drafting decisions between Macrostock Studio and Macrostock Scale, creating a seamless connection between your office and livestock equipment.

Set targets and track performance

Create targets, track weight gain, and monitor key performance indicators. Using our easy-to-read graphs, you can quickly see how your livestock tracks against your targets.

Create Alerts

When you spot an animal that requires attention, you can set up an alert that will appear on Macrostock Scale the next time the animal is processed.
