“DietCheck allows me to incorporate homegrown forage values to formulate the best ingredients for my blends. It also gives me the ability to adjust diets for maximum performance at the lowest cost.”

“DietCheck has been invaluable in enabling us to explore the use of different feeds and get the best formulation to fit our homegrown forage. Being able to tweak the diet and vary the inputs depending on costs, availability and more regular silage analysis enabled us to feed the cows so much better than we ever had before.”

“DietCheck is a very important piece of software for Carrs Billington. We have 55 licenses and it’s an essential tool for our team. It’s used every day both on the farm and in the office to maximise farm feed efficiency.”

“I have recently started using a new feature for mineral formulation - the MinVit editor. It’s a fast and easy way to calculate a bespoke mineral formulation. DietCheck allows me to quickly upload the lab forage mineral analysis and from there I can view the whole diet for that client to evaluate bespoke mineral requirements.”

“There are a couple of software programs I couldn’t function without and DietCheck is one of them! Having first been introduced to DietCheck back in 2006, while working for Keenan, when I set up my own consultancy in 2011, one of the first phone calls I made was to DietCheck to ensure I could send out accurate diet formulations to my customers. I use it every day for customers not just in the Ireland but the UK, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, France, South Africa and the United Arab Emirates. Unlike other international feed programs, DietCheck takes into account your location so you can adjust the environmental levels such as pasture, temperature and light. DietCheck is easy to navigate and the feed library is simple to adjust. When you deal with some of the same farmers day to day and year to year, it’s great to be able to copy the diets and import forage analysis to the program. When I’m sending advice to customers, it’s really easy to send diet formulations either on email or through Whatsapp – you’re not having to switch between different programs. DietCheck helps to speed things up and to keep accurate records and notes for each of the farms that I work with – it’s an essential part of my business. I know the program so well I can navigate it without seeing the screen. If I ever need to get something to a client quickly, I can phone home, formulate a diet remotely and get it emailed to the customer!”

“I use the DietCheck every day after it was recommended to me about 16 years ago. Previously I used two different software programs, one for feed mill formulations and one for on farm formulations and when I started my own business, I needed a software package that did both – that was Diet Check. DietCheck’s functionality is very comprehensive, I probably only use 70% of its capacity. On farms I use the optimise function, and the sensitivity analysis for home mixing. The compound function is great for the Mill and again I find the optimisation and sensitivity analysis invaluable. I’m not overly IT savvy! However, the team at Diet Check are very patient, they provide a really good service and the software package is a great product. .”
