Getting cows back in calf in a timely manner is a fundamental part of good dairy farm management. The Alertys OnFarm test supports farmers to find non-pregnant cows as soon as possible after breeding.

Cows with extra days non-pregnant can result in large economic losses (see the graph).

Studies have shown that on average, 12% of suckler cows are not calving. For a herd of 80 cows, that means we have 9 less calves per year.
