New Features in 7.15.3 for Producers
New Features in 7.15.3 for Consultants
Evaluating Fresh Cows Webinar: Tuesday, June 11 at 11AM (EDT)
. Guest presenter, Dr. Ed Kreykes of Dairy Health Services & GPS Consulting will showcase the use of the Milk By Week feature when creating PCDART reports to give you a more accurate method of tracking fresh cow milk produc tion. Narrowing the milk estimated to a given week removes the wide swings in average days-in-milk on first test that can occur when using First Test Day Milk and Milk from 0-40 DIM metrics. Milk by Week gives you a more focused and accurate picture of fresh cow milk production performance. Dr. Kreykes will also cover other ways he uses PCDART to evaluate fresh cows. Email DRMS at
drms@iastate.edu
and let us know you want access to the webinar. You will be emailed a personal link to join via GoToWebinar.
Heifer Genomics Guide wins 2012 Innovation Award!
The Heifer Genomics Guide was selected as one of the Top 10 Most Innovative Products of 2012! Entries are evaluated by Dairy Herd Management’s independent panel of dairy farmers, agri business representatives and university experts. Products are judged on originality within the marketplace, usefulness, and value to dairy farmers. Our industry is on the genomics fast track. Dairy producers are testing heifers at an ever-increasing rate. Now, what to do with all this genomic data? This new report helps producers answer important questions such as: Which heifers should I test? Which heifers should be the dams of the next generation? Which heifers are good flush candidates? Which heifers should be culled to save costs?
See the
Heifer Genomics Guide Review
for more details.
