General profile; select your group’s production stage in HerdMobile

HerdMobile uses the selected animal group and production stage to filter automatic feed suggestions. Follow the product label’s quantity and mixing instructions when preparing feed. Eligible for automatic recommendations: No.

This profile includes estimated nutrient values. Enter your own label or analysis values in HerdMobile to calculate a ration from the feed you have.

Micronutrient reference estimate: No · Added amounts only: No · Micronutrient source basis: As-fed product. A dry-matter value excludes water; an as-fed value uses the weight of the feed as it goes into the trough.

Questions from the farm

How should I read an unknown field?

The source supplies no number for that component. If your feed label or laboratory result provides it, use that value in your own ration calculation.

What does a percentage describe?

It describes a component’s share on the stated basis. In feed, % DM uses the portion left after water is removed. Milk-fat percentage describes the share of fat in the milk sample.

How do these figures help in HerdMobile?

Use the tables when preparing your feed and animal-group details. In HerdMobile, select your own feeds and animal group to calculate the daily ration and feed cost per animal.
