N2 - A Mobile Sheep Manager Software (M-SMS) was developed for commercial lamb production model using cloud architecture that collects and utilises farm data and responds to the farm management with respect to insights on the operational and financial aspects of the farm. Metadata used in the software is composed of ewe reproductive performance, overall productivity, lamb growing rate, survival rate of newborns, and health status of flock. The system detects alerts occurring in the farm and suggests for troubleshooting. M-SMS was combined with Cloud Services compounded with Predictive Analytics Services for helping fine-tune flock management and improve operational excellence. Mobile Sheep Manager Software is aimed at sheep farmers who need an easy to use “point and click” solution to keep legislative records, to attain operational guidance and build flock performance data. The product supports for purchase, cull or breed decisions are based on targets of flock performance.
