Nutribio are developing an innovative new web and smartphone-based dairy herd performance management system (HCP). The HCP is designed to harness the latest developments in ICT to drive technical efficiency, product quality and traceability on Irish dairy farms. Automated data feeds from analytical laboratories, milk processors, breeding organisations and on-farm sensors are complimented by user-entered data on animal nutrition, health events and remedy usage. The focus of the HCP is to provide the user with real-time information on animal health and performance, coupled with expert technical advice. This facilitates informed decision-making to maximise herd performance and farm profitability. The use of automated data entry and a smartphone app to record events on farm will enable fast, simple recording of animal health events and remedy usage. In doing so, this will meet legislation requirements and help to maximise traceability on Irish dairy farms. This traceability and quality assurance is a vital component in maintaining the high quality and safety status of Irish dairy products in markets around the world.
