The gap between the office plan and what gets loaded is usually a communication gap. A text that was missed, a whiteboard nobody checked, a call that came in while the loader was running. When you assign TMR loads from LEO My Farm, the plan goes straight to the operator’s phone.
Assign a load from the website
On the LEO My Farm website, a manager picks the load, the ration, and the operator, and assigns it. That is the whole step. The ration is one the manager already approved, so the operator will load the right version.
Managers can also assign from the phone. The manager view in the LEO Agriculture app shows today’s graded loads, alerts, and operator stats, with a way to assign a load to an operator and mark a feeding skipped.
The operator gets a notification
As soon as a load is assigned, the operator gets a notification on the phone. The app is the LEO Agriculture app, on iPhone or Android. Tap the notification and the app opens to the work.
The assigned load shows as a card
In the app, the operator’s Scale home shows either a load in progress or the next load the office assigned, with a Start button. One tap and LEO Scale walks through the ration ingredient by ingredient, with target weights and pre-alarms.
No assignment? The operator can still start
Farms do not always run on a perfect schedule. If nothing is assigned, the operator can still start a load. The ration list shows the approved rations, and the operator picks the one for the pen. The work still goes on the record, with the same grade and the same pen discharge.
The office sees it happen
Once the operator starts, the live view on My Farm shows the mixer card with the latest weight, refreshing every 1 second, plus the map trail and day timeline. The manager can see the assigned load move from planned to loading to finished without a phone call.
Why assigned loads help
- The operator knows what to load next without asking.
- The ration is the approved one, every time.
- New operators have a clear list of work.
- The manager can balance work across operators and mixers.
- Every load still ends with target and actual weights, and a grade from the LEO server.
Assigning with schedules
Pens on My Farm can have recurring feeding schedules. Combine schedules with assignments to plan the day: schedules set which pens need feeding and when, and assignments put specific loads in front of specific operators.
Skips and changes
If the plan changes, a manager can mark a feeding as skipped, from the phone or the website. The skip is saved with who did it and when. If a skipped ingredient was allowed by a manager, it does not count against the operator’s grade.
Tips for smooth assignments
- Assign the first loads of the day the night before.
- Use clear ration names so operators know which pen they are feeding.
- Keep phones charged and notifications on in the cab.
- Check the live view at the usual start time.
- Review the day timeline at the end of the day to see what got done.
A typical morning
Here is how assigned loads look on a working farm.
- The night before, the manager assigns the first three loads on My Farm.
- At start time, the operator opens the app and sees the first load card.
- The operator taps Start, loads ingredient by ingredient, and discharges by pen.
- The next assigned load card appears, and the operator keeps going.
- The manager watches progress on the live view and the day timeline.
No calls, no lost texts, and a full record by lunch.
The right mixer for the plan
A plan only works if the mixer can keep up. Size the mixer for your loads per day and your tractor. See our twin auger vertical TMR mixers, and talk to your LEO dealer about sizing and the LEO Bluetooth transmitter.
