Feed goes out weekly. Money comes in right.
Lanemi runs your feed rounds on standing orders to every farm, tracks each farmer’s credit account to the smallest unit, sends statements timed to how your customers actually get paid, and plans heavy routes village by village. In your currency, wherever you supply.
The village ledger is a notebook, and the notebook is losing.
Feed supply runs on credit and repetition. A farmer takes the same bags every week and settles when the milk money lands. Refuse credit and you lose the customer; give it on memory and one day you discover how much you have quietly lent the village.
Credit kept on memory.
Every farm owes something, the notebook is behind, and the total is a guess you avoid making.
Settlement follows the payout.
Farmers pay after the dairy pays them. Billing that ignores the rhythm gets ignored back.
Heavy loads, scattered farms.
Fifty-kilo bags across lanes and villages. Loaded in the wrong order, everything is unloaded twice.
The scale versus the sack.
Loose fodder and bran sold by weight, billed by habit. The difference leaks out of your margin quietly.
The trust stays. The guessing goes.
Every farm on a standing order.
Four bags every Monday, eight on alternate weeks: whatever each farm burns, set as a schedule and adjusted from a phone. The nightly plan locks, so your loading list is exact before the truck is.
The village ledger, kept exactly.
Each farmer runs a postpaid credit account. Deliveries post as they land, the outstanding amount is computed from the books themselves so it can never drift, and a credit limit you set per farm keeps lending a service instead of a risk.
Statements timed to the payout.
Send statements on your cycle and set the due date a few days after the dairy pays your customers. Dues that slip past it are flagged on their own, and whether deliveries pause or patience continues stays your decision, farm by farm.
Billed at the scale, loaded in order.
Loose fodder and bran are marked sold by weight and billed at the actual weighed kilos. Runsheets sequence the farms into village clusters with bag counts per stop, printed before loading, because coverage past the village edge is not a plan.
Cash at the gate, counted in.
Plenty of farms still settle in cash at the door. It is tracked from your delivery hand to your books with shortages flagged the same day, and it clears the same account the statement was built from. When the mill runs late, cap the product and sell only what the godown holds.
Built for a trade that runs on credit.

Credit and repetition are the same trade everywhere.
Dairy belts, poultry clusters or horse country: the feed changes, the rhythm does not. Choose your currency, set your statement cycle to how your farmers are paid, and keep your trade and quality documents on file, with a reminder before they lapse.
Built by people who know what a farm owes.
Lanemi began on a working farm, on the buying side of feed sacks and credit lines. We know exactly how the village ledger fails, because we have been written into one. The credit accounts here are built the way we wished our suppliers kept theirs.
The things feed suppliers ask us first.
My whole business runs on credit. Can the app handle that honestly?
Yes, it is built for it. Every delivery posts to the farmer’s account, the outstanding figure is computed from the entries themselves so it can never drift, and a limit you set per farm keeps credit a service instead of a risk.
Farmers settle after the dairy pays them. Can billing follow that rhythm?
Yes. Set your statement cycle and put the due date after the payout lands. Dues that slip past it are flagged, and pausing deliveries stays your decision, never automatic unless you switch it on.
I sell loose fodder by weight and pellets by the bag. Both?
Both, side by side. Bags are fixed products; loose feed is marked sold-by-weight and billed at the scale’s number.
Farms are spread across six villages. How does the route work?
Each farm sits at its own point on the map, and the runsheet sequences them into a loop you approve, with bag counts beside every stop. Print it before you load.
What about the farmer who never pays?
The account shows it plainly and early: the statement, the flagged overdue, the growing figure against the limit. You act on facts in weeks, not discoveries at year end.
Do I need internet at every farm gate?
No. The runsheet prints the night before, the round runs on paper where coverage dies, and the records are updated when the truck is back in range.
One good idea for your round, once a week.
Short, practical, and no filler. Leave any time.
