Animal Movement
The Beeftech Livestock Management System, offers comprehensive animal movement tracking from arrival at the facility through various stages up to slaughter and distribution.
Key aspects of animal movement tracking include:
- Registration: The system captures data during the initial registration of animals upon their arrival at the facility. This data is crucial for measuring performance, identifying the origin of animals, and monitoring their health and growth.
- Processing: The processing module manages the reception, treatment, and marketing of livestock, with information kept per individual animal.
- Electronic Ear Tags: The system utilizes electronic ear tags in conjunction with traditional visual tags to minimize capturing errors and enhance data quality. These tags are reusable, contributing to cost savings and improved facility profitability.
- Sorting and Relocation: Animals can be sorted into predefined weight groups and other criteria at registration using a gate system for ease of operation. After sorting, animals are moved into different camps as determined by the facility manager.
- Remote Reception: The system allows for remote reception, enabling off-site processing and backgrounding of animals away from the main facility.
- Animal Balances: The Livestock Management System includes tracking of animal movements and balances to ensure no animals have gone missing.
Reporting
Key features of the reporting modules include:
- Drill-down Reports: The Livestock Management System’s “Reporting Module” leverages business intelligence to generate drill-down reports. These reports range from purchased and marketed lots to individual animal performance, allowing tracing from supplier to animal level.
- Comprehensive Information: The system provides various indicators crucial for facility management, such as heifer percentage per batch, cost per kilogram, slaughter (dressing) percentage, transport costs, and secondary costs like tariffs, levies, and commissions.
- In-depth Reporting (animals Management Systems): The Beeftech System incorporates a powerful reporting module for extracting information on animals and feed. This includes:
- Market Performance: Reports on marketed animals.
- Total Performance: Performance analysis per phase.
- Action Performance: Performance between different actions.
- Mortality & Morbidity: Data on animal mortality and morbidity.
- Customizable Displays: This information can be displayed in various formats, such as reports showing animal performance sorted by buyers or average daily intake per ration.
- Data Export: The system allows users to export data to a CSV file for external analysis.
The system’s reporting capabilities aim to provide management with the necessary “business intelligent intelligence” for informed decision-making.
