The More You Know

“Black Box is proving itself to be an invaluable tool in our business. With a focus on our feedlot performance and carcase feedback, Black Box allows us to drill down to an individual animal as well as use pooled and historical data to aid decision making around market options, days on feed, and changes to husbandry practices. This is helping us to continually improve our results both up and down the supply chain.”

“Black Box Growing Performance dashboards - Predicted Weights. This function has replaced our current weight matrix in excel and is now our one stop shop, or one source of truth for forecasting sales. The greatest advantage is that whilst ever we are uploading data and maintaining transfers this data will be the closest thing to live!”

“Data collection is a key part of our business, Black Box helps us to bring feedback together from the data collected in the feedlot through to processing. Communication with the Black Box Team is great and the team are always working to bring new features to the product and improve existing aspects based on user feedback.”

“Black Box makes the analysis of the data across the business simple. The system is saving us time analysing data and we are really impressed with the level of information that we can get out of it. The team are great to work with, they're very accepting of feedback and are helping us to get the most out of this system.”

“We are really happy with how Black Box is working for our backgrounding operation. It's been very seamless and easy, taking data from the yards, to putting the data onto Black Box and seeing it displayed visually on the dashboards. It is helping us to manage our operation better.”

Jasmin Fitzpatrick, Manager
Manager of Bettergrow Rural - Warragundi Aggregation

“For the past eight years we have been receiving fragmented data on our steers performance in the feedlot. Based on this feedback, which has improved over time, we have altered the spec of bulls we are purchasing to better target the feeder market. Today we are performing much better across our targeted traits. If we can receive consistent feedback from the feedlot, it would allow us to take our herd to the next level again with the help of the analytics available through Black Box Co.”

“Performance analytics that lead to good decision making are sorely needed in the beef industry, as we are already working in an environment with so much uncertainty. The Black Box Co suite of products is finally providing beef operations with this critical feedback. The commitment of the staff at Black Box to ensuring the quality of the incoming data and support on interpretation is certainly the type quality service the industry needs.”
