Thinking it was ridiculous he was still using pen and paper to track his flock, Katanning sheep farmer Allan Wilson began looking into building an app to replace his notebook in 2013. The result, released late last year, is MyMobTracker.
“In this day and age, I couldn’t work out for the life of me why we couldn’t find something that was better than that, so I went looking and just couldn’t find something that suited me,” Wilson said.
The app allows multiple users on a farm to record and share information about stock movements, treatments, and actions performed, enabling a user to easily see on their device where all their sheep are and their numbers.
