Summary

since the Allflex system was installed, the farm is better able to anticipate cows’ health problems, catching illness quicker and improving the effectiveness of treatments. This includes what Daniela and Néstor consider surprisingly good results in the control of diseases such as pneumonia. Daniela and Néstor say the reports created by the Allflex system are very easy to understand. In fact, the entire team at the dairy knows how to do it, and even a staff member who cannot read or write can interpret the figures with no problem. As Daniela says: “It’s a technology that’s completely uncomplicated and accessible to all.”
