From Photo to Precision: How Nitara Estimates Cattle Weight from a Single Image

Weighing a dairy cow accurately used to require a livestock weighing machine — expensive, immobile, and unrealistic for the average smallholder. With Nitara's photo-based weight estimation, a farmer can now point their phone at a cow and receive a vet-grade weight estimate in seconds. We share the computer vision pipeline, the dataset that powers it, and why this small feature unlocks better feed planning, fairer cattle valuations, and healthier herds.
