Calving & Early mating
See how easy it is to track calves, verify genetics, monitor health, and prepare for a high-performing mating season.
Calving and early mating are critical times to set your herd up for a successful season. Ensuring every cow transitions smoothly to a healthy, high-producing milker maximises early submission for next season’s mating.
With MyHERD, you can manage calves, verify parentage, monitor herd health and track pre-mating heats – all on the go.
