Making informed decisions is essential on farm. While calculator outputs are only as reliable as the data entered - and estimating inputs can be challenging - these tools help you assess risk and opportunity by modelling best-case, median, and worst-case scenarios.
Use the calculators below to better understand potential cost savings, productivity gains, and overall return on investment.
Advantage Feeders Sheep ROI Calculators
are built around real livestock feeding scenarios — enter your numbers and see your potential savings and payback period in minutes.
Managing High-Moisture Pastures – Sheep
Fully utilising pasture that is high in moisture that usually occurs in a feed gap leads to a higher carrying capacity and higher farm income.
Feeding little and often supports the productive and efficient operation of the rumen. This leads to less supplement being fed and livestock being more productive.
Improving Growth on Excess Protein Pasture – Sheep
Supplementing grains to livestock grazing pastures high in protein manages the excess ammonia in the rumen and prevents energy wastage leading to lower production.
Rapid development of the rumen from the first few weeks of age allows young livestock to grow faster and convert pasture into growth from a younger age.
Using Advantage Feeders to supplement lambing ewes reduces the disruption that trail feeding creates. Content ewes wean more lambs and increase your production.
Disrupted ewes at lambing has meant that they may not be trail fed. Supplementing with Advantage Feeders supports the lambing ewe and leads to better weaning rates.
Lowering hay waste reduces the cost of feeding livestock. It also means that less hay needs to be transported, stored, fed out, and, if wasted, cleaned up.

Supplementing Inadequate Pasture – Cattle
Feeding little and often supports the productive and efficient operation of the rumen. This leads to less supplement being fed and livestock being more productive.
