The need for continuous improvement is in you. Improved production and profitability comes from decisions and actions based on insights. Insights come from analyzing and understanding your herd’s performance trends. Your herd’s performance trends are shaped by the individual animals in it.
The first step to gain insights about your herd is making sure each cow is identified and connected to her own record. If you don’t know your cow, how will you know her impact on your bottom line?
