AgSource can make you money through precise culling, lowering Somatic Cell Count (SCC), optimizing your milk price and targeting your herd's reproductive programs for improvement.
AgSource records can tell you if your herd replacement rate is above or below average and identify the primary reasons you are culling cows over the past year.
Lowering your calving interval 20 days on a 100 cow herd can increase your net income $6,000 annually. If you see too many extended calving intervals in your herd, you need to know what your projected calving interval is, services per conception and days to first breeding. As you make changes, you'll need to monitor these numbers. AgSource can do all of this and more for you.
