What Shira does for your farm

Stop guessing. Start knowing.

Three livestock modules, shared feed and finance management, smart alerts, and offline support — built for the way Kenyan farms actually work.

Dairy Management

Know every cow by name, by number, by profit

The challenge

Most dairy farmers cannot tell you which cow earns the most or which one costs more in feed than she produces in milk. Records are scattered across notebooks, the herdsman's memory, and the milk processor's statement — which never seems to match.

How Shira helps

Shira gives every cow a digital profile. Record morning and evening milk in seconds, track breeding from heat detection to calving, monitor health and feed costs, and see exactly what the processor owes you.

What you get

See each cow's milk yield (today, 7-day, 30-day averages) at a glance
Record milk from your phone in under 10 seconds per cow
Get alerts when a cow is due for pregnancy check or vaccination
Track the full breeding cycle: heat → AI → pregnancy check → calving
Know your cost per litre — feed, health, and labour included
Reconcile processor payments and catch shortfalls instantly
Monitor udder health with SCC tracking and withdrawal management
Manage calves from birth through weaning with growth targets

Who uses this module

Farm owner

sees the dashboard, approves expenses, tracks profitability

Milk recorder

records yields per session, fast and offline-capable

Herdsman

logs health events, breeding, and daily observations

Vet

reviews health records, prescribes treatments, tracks withdrawals

Poultry Management

Every egg counted. Every batch profitable.

The challenge

Layer and broiler operations produce data every single day — egg counts, feed consumed, mortalities, vaccinations. Without a system, you find out a batch is underperforming only when it is too late to fix it.

How Shira helps

Shira tracks your flocks at the batch level. Record egg collections by grade, monitor broiler growth against targets, get alerted when production drops or mortality spikes, and know exactly when a batch should be sold.

What you get

Record egg collections in seconds — graded, dated, and tracked
See hen-day production (HDP) rate updated daily for each batch
Get alerts when mortality exceeds your threshold or production drops
Track broiler weight gain and feed conversion ratio (FCR) per batch
Manage vaccination schedules with automatic reminders
Monitor feed stock levels and get low-stock warnings
Know your cost per egg and cost per kilogram of meat
Track egg inventory, grading, and sales in one place

Who uses this module

Farm owner

monitors batch profitability and sales pipeline

Farm manager

oversees daily collections, feed orders, vaccination schedules

Herdsman

records daily egg counts, mortalities, and observations

Accountant

tracks feed costs, egg sales revenue, and batch economics

Swine Management

From farrowing to market — every pig accounted for

The challenge

Pig farming is a numbers game — feed conversion, days to market weight, cost per kilogram. Miss a farrowing date and you lose piglets. Sell too early and you leave money on the table. Sell too late and feed costs eat your margin.

How Shira helps

Shira tracks individual pigs and groups from birth to sale. Monitor growth against breed benchmarks, get farrowing alerts days in advance, and see projected profit per batch before you sell.

What you get

Track individual pigs and groups from birth to sale
Get alerts 5 days before expected farrowing dates
Monitor daily weight gain against breed standards (5 breeds supported)
See projected sale date and profit per batch in real time
Record litter details: born alive, stillborn, weaned, mortality
Track sow productivity: litters per year, average weaned per litter
Know your cost per kilogram including feed, health, and labour
Log sanitation compliance for biosecurity audits

Who uses this module

Farm owner

tracks batch economics and decides optimal sale timing

Farm manager

manages breeding calendar, group movements, feed schedules

Herdsman

records weights, health events, and daily observations

Vet

reviews treatment records, vaccination schedules, and mortality trends

Every plan includes

Platform features built for Kenya

Works without internet

Network coverage is unreliable on many Kenyan farms.

Record milk, eggs, feeds, and health events offline. Data syncs automatically when connection returns. Install on your phone like an app — no app store needed.

Pay with M-Pesa

Most farmers do not have credit cards or bank accounts linked to online payment.

Pay your subscription via M-Pesa STK Push directly from the app. Confirm on your phone. Activated instantly. No credit card, no bank transfer.

Your data stays yours

Farmers worry about who can see their financial and production records.

Every farm is completely isolated. No other farm, no staff member on another farm, and no competitor can see your data. Bank-grade encryption. Daily backups.

Alerts that save you money

Missed vaccinations, low feed stock, and breeding windows cost money.

Get notified about health follow-ups, vaccination due dates, low feed stock, breeding windows, and payment shortfalls — via in-app notification, SMS, or push.

Team access with the right permissions

You need your herdsman to record data but not see your finances.

Add team members with specific roles — recorder, herdsman, vet, accountant. Each person sees only what their role allows. Invite via SMS with a temporary password.

Reports your bank will accept

SACCOs and lenders want production records you cannot produce from a notebook.

Export PDF and CSV reports — production summaries, financial statements, herd health reports. Formatted for SACCO loans and lender submissions.
