Accurately identify individual cow feed efficiency
AfiCollar Feed Efficiency Service takes cow monitoring to the next level by giving dairies accurate feed consumption data, combining it with milk production data and delivering insights never before available.
By accurately measuring each individual cow’s dry matter intake and calculating the feed efficiency and Income over Feed (IoF) of each cow, dairies can identify their most profitable cows and then make more informed culling and breeding decisions.
Cull low producing, high-cost cows.
Develop a more genetically efficiency herd.
Select animals that emit less methane, produce with less feed.
Five years, 35,000 data points and global research partnerships made our DMI breakthrough possible – with 93.9% accuracy.
The Feed Efficiency Service is a module within the AfiFarm herd management software. It combines data on the dry matter intake of each individual cow (collected from the AfiCollar sensor) with milk production data (collected from the MPCs/meters) to deliver reports on the feed efficiency and income over feed (IoF) of each cow.
Afimilk was the first to isolate the consumption measurement of eating with an AI-supported algorithm to identify the dry matter intake of each individual cow regardless of ration type.
AfiFarm analyzes data to define how much each cow costs in feed, the value of her milk production, and then deliver a profit and loss statement on each animal. These insights help:
Individual feed efficiency data can be leveraged in multiple ways. Producers can immediately make more informed culling decisions:
Over time, producers are also empowered to:
