Culling Order Recommendations Report
Cows marked Do Not Breed typically remain in the herd while their production levels are high enough; however, they are removed once their production drops and they are no longer valuable.
Goal: Manage culling times based on profitability (IOF) for cows listed as 'Not-for-insemination'/ Do not breed.Use the weekly IOF data for all 'Not for Insemination'/'Do not breed cows' to determine the optimum time to cull these cows from the herd. The report allows you to track the cows' profitability and remove them once it drops below a minimal threshold.
Cows included in the report: Cows with Milk status, listed as 'Not for Insemination'.
Use the Culling Order Recommendations report to identify and select the lowest performing cows (highlighted in red) to be removed from the herd this week based on the IOF data.
