How can Farmspeak help your farm?
Farmspeak Technology
We build smart tools that uses AI and IoT technology to Improve operations for smallholder farmers in Africa.
Farmspeak has revolutionised poultry farming across Nigeria. Through the use of technology, farmers can track information about their farm and monitor their animals in real-time. While this seems like it is great for others, it raises the question; how is that relevant to me and my farm? We have outlined the key reasons why we believe that Farmspeak’s software can help your farm.
Vaccine Administration
With all the activities of the farm and the numerous vaccines that poultry need, it can be difficult to remember when to administer each one. While smartphone reminders work well for other things, they fall short when it comes to reminding farmers of the correct vaccine types for these specific animals. FS Manager sends you a reminder when an animal’s vaccine is due, and tells you which one to administer. The key benefit to this is that it saves time and allows you to focus on other aspects of the poultry farm, without worrying about remember which vaccine to administer and when.
Temperature control
Some poultry farmers are unaware of just how important temperature is for poultry pens; whether it is too high or too low. Day-old birds require an ideal temperature which is incredibly difficult to maintain manually, especially throughout the night. Farmspeak knew how important this is, and thus created the poultry farming environmental monitoring device. Poultry farmers can now monitor temperature, humidity, airflow and can regulate it with Smart Penkeep.
Feed tracking
It can be difficult to know how much feed to provide for each birds. In addition, the food can be expensive and prices are highly volatile. For this reason, feed wastage can create a large problem on poultry farms, and farmers need ways to reduce it. One of these methods is calculating the feed necessary for each individual bird.
With FS Manager, you can do so in a matter of seconds. The App will convert the amount of feed needed based on the information you put in., the type of feed and the age and weight of the birds. The feature drastically saves costs and allows you to spend more time on other areas of the farm, rather than manually calculating the conversion rates.

Keeping Track of Finances
Recording your income and expenses is crucial to understand how well a poultry farm is functioning. However, doing so manually can take a long time and increases the risk of human error. FS manager has two key tabs to help with this: “Income Management ” and “Expense Management.” Here, you can input your daily expenses and the system will calculate your financial status as well as any changes in your finances.
Sending Invoices
With FS Manager, sending invoices and receipts is instantaneous and easier than ever. Having this feature is key for many customers, as they want to be able to calculate and record their finances. Additionally, it creates more transparency and makes the poultry farm look professional and trustworthy. It also ensures that they become returning customers, as they become loyal to your farm and its workers.
