With our main office located in Edmonton, Alberta, Accurate Scale is no stranger to serving the needs of our many agriculturally based customers. Livestock scales play an important role in meeting the needs of ranchers or processors that need a reliable, legal-for-trade system. At Accurate Scale, we are pleased to carry a variety of products manufactured by Rice Lake Weighing Systems. Rice Lake offers scales that are both stationary, singular, or portable to suit your needs.
Livestock scales are an extremely valuable item for farmers wishing to keep a close eye on their animals. Having access to regular weighing periods grants insights into an animal’s health (a sudden drop in weight may indicate an illness or disease and give you advance time to treat it before it spreads), select optimal breeding partners based on compatible weight and builds, and even measure feed conversion.
Since livestock scales provide automated readings, less hard labour is required when it comes to the handling of the animals themselves, and reduces the potential for errors that may occur with older equipment. All of this translates to saved time and money for owners, allowing you to focus on the main needs of your animals as well as reduce overall wastage. For those looking for a safe, reliable way to keep track of the condition of their livestock, scales are a must.
