enterprise planner · layers_01
pastured layers
The whole egg enterprise in one view — hens, feed, land, labour, and the money, with the eggmobile's payback on top. Tweak any number and watch the year respond. Defaults are a worked example, not your farm: adjust everything to your context.

Nothing saved yet. Set the plan the way you'd run things today, save it, then push the numbers — more hens, a second eggmobile, a better egg price — and compare what each future pays.

The Pastured Layers OS — plan it, then run it
This planner is the plan. The OS is the year that follows — flock records, egg and feed logs, pasture-move tracking, and plan-vs-actuals that feed your real numbers back into next season's plan. Built in Notion, like everything here.

Take it with you
Your plan, on paper
A three-page report — verdict, KPIs and the P&L; the laying year and the payback curve; land, labour and every assumption. It costs one email, once — then hit the button and choose “save as PDF” in the print dialog. If the charts print without colour, tick “background graphics” in the dialog’s options.
