How Smart Cattle Operations Got Smarter With Us
Progressive Beef
Digitizing Feedlot Compliance & Audit Management
Folio3 replaced paper-based compliance processes with web and mobile applications, helping auditors, supervisors, and feedlot teams manage compliance tasks, audits, corrective actions, and records from a single platform. The solution improved visibility across participating feedlots while reducing manual effort and administrative overhead.
Cactus Feeders
A Single Platform for Full Feedlot Cattle Lifecycle Management
Cactus Feeders was running feedlot cattle management on a legacy system taking 7–10 seconds to load a single screen. The entire web and mobile platform was rebuilt, digitizing lot assignment, pen movements, ration management, feed inventory, and vet feed directives into one multi-device feedlot interface.
Centralizing Financial and Feedlot Operations for a 150,000-Head Yard
One of the largest cattle feeding operations in the Southwest, running 150,000 head across multiple yards in Arizona, needed a unified ERP to replace disconnected financial and operational systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does your feedlot management software handle cattle organized by lots, pens, and ownership groups?
How does your feedlot management software handle cattle organized by lots, pens, and ownership groups?
Lot and pen management is built around how your yard actually operates. Animals can be grouped by arrival date, health status, or ownership structure, with tracking logic configured to match your specific operational setup, including multi-owner lots where costs, performance, and settlements need to be tracked and reported separately for each ownership group.
Can lots be split, merged, or reassigned mid-cycle without losing history?
Can lots be split, merged, or reassigned mid-cycle without losing history?
Yes. Full movement tracking is built into the cattle feedlot software so animals can be moved between lots and pens at any point during the feeding period without losing any historical records.
Can health records, treatments, and processing events all be managed in one place?
Can health records, treatments, and processing events all be managed in one place?
Yes. Health management is consolidated into your feedlot management software so treatments, vaccinations, processing events, hospital pen activity, and individual animal histories are all accessible from one place. Your team gets a complete view of every animal throughout its time on feed without switching between systems or maintaining separate paper records.
How does the system handle drug withdrawals and implant schedules?
How does the system handle drug withdrawals and implant schedules?
Automated withdrawal tracking and implant scheduling are configured based on your protocols. The solution flags animals that aren't eligible for marketing, sends reminders when re-implants are due, and maintains a full treatment record per animal, so your team isn't manually tracking these across spreadsheets before every load-out.
Can the software manage multiple rations and feed calls across different pens?
Can the software manage multiple rations and feed calls across different pens?
Yes. Ration management and feed call generation are built into the feedlot management solution based on how your nutritionist and feed crew work. Multiple rations can be managed across different pen groups, bunk scores monitored, and feeding programs adjusted as cattle performance and yard conditions change, all from the same platform your team uses daily.
How does commodity and feed inventory management work?
How does commodity and feed inventory management work?
Feed inventory tracking is built into your feedlot software from commodity receipt through ration mixing and pen delivery. Real-time inventory balances, dry matter adjustments, shrink factors, and usage by ration are all configured to match how your yard receives and manages commodities, so your nutrition and yard teams are always working from accurate numbers.
Can the software connect with feed mixers, truck scales, and processing equipment?
Can the software connect with feed mixers, truck scales, and processing equipment?
Yes. Existing yard hardware, feed mixers, truck scales, EID readers, and RFID equipment, is integrated directly into the feedlot data integration software. Weight data, delivery accuracy, and mixing records flow into the system automatically so nothing needs to be re-keyed and operational data stays current.
What performance metrics can be tracked and how current is the data?
What performance metrics can be tracked and how current is the data?
Performance tracking is configured around the metrics your operation depends on, ADG, DMI, feed conversion ratio, mortality, treatment costs, cost of gain, and lot profitability. All of these are calculated using live yard data and accessible by lot, pen, or ownership group at any time, without waiting for a closeout.
Can feedlot data integrate with ERP and accounting systems?
Can feedlot data integrate with ERP and accounting systems?
Yes. Operational feedlot data is connected directly to Microsoft Dynamics 365 or NetSuite so every yard event, feed delivery, health treatment, lot closeout, flows into your financial system automatically. Your finance team gets accurate cost-of-production without waiting on the yard to compile and send data manually.
Can operational data be imported and exported easily?
Can operational data be imported and exported easily?
Yes. Both import and export workflows are configured as part of the solution. Data can come in via CSV or API for animal intake, ownership records, ration templates, and health events. Exports can be scheduled and automated for accounting systems, packers, or analytics tools, based on what your operation needs to share and when.
Is this cloud-based and does it work across multiple yard locations?
Is this cloud-based and does it work across multiple yard locations?
Yes. The solution is built on a cloud-based architecture so your team can access it from anywhere with no local installations required. For multi-yard operations, each location is configured to operate independently while consolidating performance, inventory, and financials across all sites into one view, with full mobile access and offline capability for field crews.
Can user access and dashboards be configured differently for each role?
Can user access and dashboards be configured differently for each role?
Yes. Role-based permissions and customized dashboards are set up as part of the implementation. Pen riders, nutritionists, veterinarians, billing staff, and owners each get access to the tools and data relevant to their role, nothing more, nothing less.
Where is the data hosted and how is it secured?
Where is the data hosted and how is it secured?
The feedlot solution is hosted on enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with role-based access controls, encrypted data transmission, and regular automated backups. Hosting environment and security protocols are scoped during the engagement based on your operation's compliance and data residency requirements.
Does the feedlot solution use an open API and can it connect with third-party systems?
Does the feedlot solution use an open API and can it connect with third-party systems?
Yes. The solution is built with API-based connectivity so it can exchange data with third-party systems, packer portals, weighing equipment, accounting platforms, and yard management systems. Both inbound and outbound data flows are configured as part of the integration architecture during implementation.
How is data migrated from existing yard management or accounting systems?
How is data migrated from existing yard management or accounting systems?
Data migration is scoped during the discovery phase. Historical records, animal data, health history, financial records, and ownership structures are mapped, cleaned, and migrated into the new system before go-live. The migration approach is designed to preserve data integrity without disrupting active yard operations.
How does the feedlot software perform at enterprise scale, large head counts, multiple yards, high transaction volumes?
How does the feedlot software perform at enterprise scale, large head counts, multiple yards, high transaction volumes?
The solution for feedlot management is architected for enterprise feedlot operations handling high transaction volumes across multiple yards and large head counts. Performance requirements, data volumes, and concurrent user loads are assessed during scoping to ensure the system is sized and configured appropriately for your operation.
What does the discovery and scoping process look like before development begins?
What does the discovery and scoping process look like before development begins?
Every engagement starts with a structured discovery phase covering your existing systems, operational workflows, integration requirements, and reporting needs. This produces a detailed scope document that defines what gets configured, what gets custom-built, and how the solution connects to your ERP, before any development work begins.
How long does a typical feedlot ERP implementation take from discovery to go-live?
How long does a typical feedlot ERP implementation take from discovery to go-live?
Implementation timelines vary based on operational complexity, number of yards, integration requirements, and data migration scope. Most feedlot ERP engagements run from a few weeks for focused integrations to several months for full multi-yard implementations. A realistic timeline is defined during the discovery phase before any commitment is made.
What does post-launch support cover and how is it structured?
What does post-launch support cover and how is it structured?
Post-launch support covers data flow monitoring, bug resolution, configuration adjustments, and user support as your team gets fully operational on the system. Support structure — response times, coverage hours, escalation paths, is defined as part of the engagement agreement based on your operation's requirements.
Does Folio3 AgTech have experience with feedlot ERP implementations specifically, or is this a general agriculture practice?
Does Folio3 AgTech have experience with feedlot ERP implementations specifically, or is this a general agriculture practice?
Feedlot ERP is a dedicated practice area, not a horizontal agriculture offering applied to feedlots. Engagements are led by a team with hands-on feedlot implementation experience across enterprise operations, custom feedyards, and vertically integrated cattle businesses, with named advisors from the US feedlot industry involved in solution design.
