I PUT TRU-TEST TO THE TEST

PICTURED: George Nicholls, Livestock Manager, Tasmania.

GEORGE’S PICKS

George Nicholls is a livestock manager of a sheep property with 15,000+ stock, just north of Hobart, Tasmania. An early adopter of EID systems, George has been using tags for over 13 years.

Seeing their benefits and reaping their rewards, George sees EID systems as a “no brainer” for modern farmers. “Tru-Test’s product range gives me much greater data management, which helps me make really informed

decisions about how to maximise the profitability of my livestock at sale time”.

The data George acquires has helped him modify everything on his farm, from fertility plans to irrigation, catering decisions to the management of every individual animal on his farm.

To make his life easier, George uses our Screen Link App, which shares real-time weighing information from his indicator to his Android smartphone, so he can see animal weights when he’s out of sight of the weigh scale.

Using his 5-way Prattley Auto Drafter coupled with his Tru-Test XR5000 Indicator, XRP2 Small Panel Reader and MP600 Loadbars, George is able to maximise the value of his livestock by knowing when to treat, cull, feed or sell.

“The data I collect allows me to make immediate decisions that impact my farm straight away or years into the future” says George. “That’s what makes the Tru-Test range second to none”.

“INDIVIDUAL ANIMAL MANAGEMENT HAS HUGE POTENTIAL FOR FARM GROWTH”

XRP2 Small Panel ReaderUsing Bluetooth, George is able to use his XRP2 remotely.

Screen Link AppShares real-time weights from indicator to Android smartphone/watch.

MP600 LoadbarsThe MP600 has a sealed load cell, protecting it from the elements.

In Cookernup, Western Australia, Stephen Adams is making a huge difference to the next generation of livestock farmers.

The winner of ‘The Big Tru-Test Weigh In’, Stephen decided to donate $10k

worth of Tru-Test products to the local college he teaches at, to give back to the community.

With the winnings, Stephen ordered the Prattley Manual 3 Way Drafter, a set of MP600 Loadbars, an XR5000 Indicator and an SRS2 Stick Reader.

“Our college has approximately 160 students, and to be able to introduce these new products into our curriculum is just amazing” said Stephen.

He went on to explain that the new Tru-Test products would unlock a world of potential for students and staff, now and into the future.
