Is the answer to improved animal performance in the grass beneath your feet?

Fact-based decision making for better animal performance outcomes.

“Knowing the mineral levels in my pastures gives me a better nderstanding of the causes of health and production problems in my stock” Graham Clarke, Drystock Farmer.

Pasture mineral composition is a major driver of the health and productivity of livestock. The DietDecoder™ helps you understand the nutrient cycle on your farm, from the soil, through the pasture to the animal.
Knowing pasture mineral levels on your farm, allows you to make feed, fertiliser and mineral supplementation decisions that benefit animal health and performance.

“It’s a weight off your shoulders, not wondering what you are going to find in the morning when you get out of bed” – Craig Knowles, Taranaki Dairy Farmer


Farmers using the DietDecoder™ are relaxed, content and enjoying farming. They feel supported in their decision making and are not having to deal with the same animal health issues year after year.

“The DietDecoder™ is a decision support tool that gives me insight into what my animals need”  – Ben Ensor, Seaward Stock Company
