What is Pasture Coach ITC?

The software lets you enter and record your grass covers. From here you can see which paddocks have the highest grass covers by looking at a feed wedge.

Pros and Cons of Pasture Coach ITC
Pasture Coach ITC is handy if you want a simple app and aren't confident in using a spreadsheet. Their core principle is "keep it simple and make it work for everyone". A limitation is the lack of features and minimal updates with no where to store grazing activities. Though it is limited to Windows based computers, it does backup to the cloud, which is pretty cool for that unexpected hard drive failure.
Update: 14/02/2019
It has come to our attention that Pasture Coach ITC now has an app and can store grazing activities. Although we haven't confirmed this or tried out these features we wish you happy farming :)
