$uplementa Certo

The $uplementa Certo Chrome extension offers an intuitive mobile tool designed for beef cattle producers to evaluate the cost and benefit of supplementation during the dry season. Developed in partnership with Embrapa Cattle Court and the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS), this extension empowers small to large cattle ranchers to compare different supplementation products and strategies, including protein salt and semi-confinement.

With this tool, users input minimal data about their herd and supplementation products and receive key metrics such as supplementation margins, breakeven points for weight gains, and returns per dollar invested. It also provides guidance on crucial factors like minimum required troughs to optimize supplementation outcomes. The extension works offline on Android devices, making it accessible anytime and supports better, data-driven decision-making for sustainable and profitable beef cattle nutrition management.
