Track every animal with full history — weights, lineage, purchase/sale data, photos, and notes.

Breeding, Pedigree & Genetics

Breed composition, pedigree trees, genetic test results and EPDs, with a warning before you pair two carriers of a lethal gene.

Health & Treatment Tracking

Vaccinations, dewormers, vet visits — with withdrawal period tracking and a reusable product library.

Breeding & Due Dates

Track breeding records from planned to confirmed to calved. Due date calculations by species.

Know Your Numbers

Every dollar tracked, categorized, and ready for your CPA. No more shoeboxes.

Transaction list with Schedule F categories and income/expense breakdown

Schedule F Tax Reporting

Every transaction maps to IRS Schedule F categories. Generate a complete tax package at year-end.

Bank Sync via Plaid

On Plus, connect your farm bank account. New transactions come in on their own each day, and rules learn how you sort them.

Cost-Per-Head Analysis

Know exactly what each animal costs to raise — feed, vet, overhead — all rolled up by group or individual.

Invoicing & Receipt Scanning

Make invoices with your logo, then email them to customers or share a link. Mark one paid and the income is recorded. Snap a receipt and it reads the vendor, amount and category.

Run Your Operation

Equipment list with maintenance records and hourly cost tracking

Equipment & Depreciation

Hay & Feed Inventory

Track hay bales lot by lot with cost breakdowns. Feed usage by group with shortage prediction.

Grazing & Pasture Rotation

Draw pastures on a satellite map, plan rotations, track rest periods, and get alerts when it's time to move.

Tasks & Egg Production

Repeating chores with due dates, on a list, calendar or board. Daily egg counts by flock, with lay rate and trends.

Sell Your Products

From processing to product inventory to finding your customers — close the loop.

Built by a farmer

Howdy Ag was built on a working farm in Virginia — not in a boardroom. After years of wrestling with spreadsheets, overpriced software, and tools designed for thousand-head operations, we built what we actually needed: simple, affordable farm management that understands small operations.

From registered Dexter cattle to backyard egg flocks, if you're running a small mixed operation, this was built for you.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to be tech-savvy to use this?
If you can check your email, you can use Howdy Ag. The interface is designed around how farmers actually work — not how software engineers think they should.
What animals does it support?
Cattle, chickens (layers and meat birds), sheep, goats, pigs, and more. Each species has its own tracking — breeding, genetics, health, classification — not one-size-fits-all.
Can I sell my products through Howdy Ag?
Every account gets a free farm page where local customers can find you. List products, livestock for sale and the farmers markets you go to. Buyers contact you directly to order. There's no online checkout, so you arrange payment and pickup the way you do now.
Will my CPA like the tax reports?
They'll love them. Every transaction maps to Schedule F line items. At tax time, export a complete package with P&L, Schedule F summary, depreciation schedules, and mileage logs.
Can I try it before paying?
Yes. Every new farm gets 30 days of Homestead free, with no credit card. Pick a plan any time during the trial and you won't be charged until it ends. Otherwise your farm moves to the Free plan (up to 15 animals) and keeps all its records.
Is my data secure?
Your data lives in an encrypted PostgreSQL database with row-level security — each farm's data is completely isolated. We never sell your data or show you ads.
What about my bank information?
Bank connections go through Plaid, the same service used by Venmo and thousands of banks. We never see or store your bank login credentials.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. No contracts, no cancellation fees. Downgrade to Free or cancel entirely — your data stays available for 90 days.
