The notebook gets wet
Kraal notes go into a notebook, then a spreadsheet, then get lost. KraalSync captures it once, on the spot.
In development · built in South Africa by FarmCamSA
Every animal. Every record. Even without signal.
KraalSync is livestock record software for cattle, sheep and goats. Record on your phone in the kraal, see everything in the office, and keep each animal’s full history in one place.

Sample screens with example data
Records should not be the hard part of farming
The tag falls out
A new tag should not mean a new animal. KraalSync keeps the full history when a tag is lost or replaced.
The numbers don’t add up
Counts, births, sales and deaths in one place, so you know what should be in each camp and what is missing.
How it works
Three steps in the kraal. No paperwork afterwards.
- 1
Find the animal
Scan the EID tag or type the tag number. Its whole history appears at once.
- 2
Record the job
Weigh, dose, move, record a birth or count. Set the shared details once, then enter only what changes per animal.
- 3
It sends itself
No signal? Everything is saved on the phone and sent as soon as there is signal. The office sees it straight away.
What you record
Everything an animal goes through, in one record
Animals & tags
Visual tags, EIDs and registration numbers. The history stays when a tag is lost or replaced.
Births
Twins and triplets each get their own record. Fostering and losses stay on record.
Weights & growth
Gain per day is worked out for you. Odd weights are flagged, never quietly changed.
Health
Doses, vaccinations and treatments, with product, batch and withdrawal date.
Camps & movements
Which animals are in which camp, since when, and how long a camp has rested.
Stock counts
Count a camp and see at once what is missing and what should not be there.
Sales & deaths
Sold, slaughtered or died: the animal leaves the herd, its history stays.
Reports
Birth lists, weaning results, treatments and numbers per camp. Print or export.
Modules
Start with what you farm. Add what you need.
Beef
Calving lists, cow–calf performance, inter-calving period, weaning and bull records.
Sheep & Goats
Lambing and kidding with every lamb or kid tracked on its own, rearing type and ewe performance.
Add when you need it
- Breeding
- Grazing
- Farm Finance
- Feed & Stock
- Feedlot
- Wool & Mohair
- Milk
- Stud & Genetics

Record in the kraal. Check in the office. Decide with real numbers.
Questions farmers ask
Does it really work without signal?
Yes, that is where we started. Weighing, treating, moving, births and counts all work with no signal and are sent once the phone finds signal again.
Do I need an electronic tag reader?
No. You can always type the tag number. If you have a reader or scale, tell us the model and we will test it with KraalSync.
Can I bring my old records?
Yes, from Excel, paper lists or another livestock program, as long as you can export your data. We check the totals with you before you switch.
Who owns the data?
You do. It is stored on our server in South Africa, and you can export all of it at any time.
What will it cost?
That depends on your animals and the modules you need. Plan your KraalSync and we send you a quote. There is no obligation.
Will it link to SA Stud Book, Logix or RMIS?
That is the plan, but we only switch a link on once it has been tested with that organisation. Until then you get export files.
See your KraalSync before it is built
Answer a few questions and watch your own system take shape. It takes about 5 minutes, and nothing is sent until you say yes.
