Net liveweight output per hectare standardised against annual rainfall. In Australia’s volatile climate, raw production per hectare can mislead: a big wet-year figure may be poor resource use, a modest dry-year one highly efficient.
South-west Victorian farms average about 2.4 DSE/ha per 100 mm of rainfall (top 20% 2.7) — roughly 45 kg liveweight/ha/100 mm, with the best well above.
EverGraze / SW Farm Monitor ↗It tracks how well soil health, pasture choices and grazing systems convert every millimetre of rain into product, and whether you are building a genuinely drought-resilient operation.
Silo pulls each of these from the sources the operation already uses, and keeps the figure current automatically.
Lift pasture utilisation so more of each millimetre grows saleable beef.
Match stocking rate to seasonal rainfall outlooks, not the long-term average.
Invest in soil health and perennials that keep growing on stored moisture.
