While the monthly production report gives you a helpful high-level overview, Farmshare has a dedicated reporting section that lets you dig into harvest data by customer, species, weight, and more.
The monthly production report is great for a high-level overview, but it doesn't break down data by customer or give you species-specific weights. For that level of detail, you'll want to use the Processor Data Export tool — it gives you a row for every animal processed, with full customer and weight information that you can sort and filter however you need.
Getting to the Export
In the left sidebar, go to Settings > Exports.
Setting Up Your Export
Under Select Export Type, choose Animal Head Splits — this is the export that includes customer-level detail.
Optionally filter by Animal Species and Inspection Level if you only want a specific subset of data.
Set your date range using the date fields. You can filter by Created Date, Drop-Off Date, or other date fields depending on what you need.

Producer name, email, and phone

Direct links to the job and cutsheet in Farmshare
Working With the Data in Excel or Google Sheets
Once you've downloaded the CSV, open it in Excel or Google Sheets. A few tips for getting to the numbers you need:
Finding weight by customer — Filter the Producer column by a specific customer name to see every animal they brought in during your selected date range, along with the corresponding weights.
Finding weight by species — Filter the Animal Species column to isolate beef, pork, lamb, or any other species, then sum the Hanging Weight column to get your total processed weight for that species.
Understanding the Hanging Weight column — Weights are displayed as two numbers separated by a slash, for example 545 / 560. The first number is the weight per side and the second is the total carcass weight. When you're summing weights, you'll want to use the number after the slash.
Getting a full production summary — If you want to see totals broken down by both customer and species, you can use a Pivot Table in Excel (or Google Sheets) with Producer as your row, Animal Species as your column, and Hanging Weight as your value. This gives you a clean summary in just a few clicks.
