With mating season underway farmers will be considering how to make their herds more efficient, through breeding. Fonterra have been around the country on their Efficiency Evolution Strategy Roadshow, and two of their presenters share the tools they encourage farmers to think about when it comes to getting the most from your herd. Also hear from two LIC Agri Managers on their MINDA tool, and how they’re using it to make bespoke plans for their farmers on what efficiency means to them.

Guests include:
Malcolm Ellis, Strategic Advisor, Fonterra
Louise Cook, Environment Programme Lead, Fonterra
Charlotte Gray and Rosanna Dickson, Senior Agri Managers, LIC

Hosts:
Sheryl Haitana, Editor, Dairy Exporter
Sarah Perriam-Lampp, Managing Director, CountryWide Media

Malcolm Ellis and Louise Cook from Fonterra hosted Fonterra’s Efficiency Evolution Strategy Roadshow. They discuss different strategies to get more efficiency from your herd and farm system. They say due to challenges like M Bovis farmers haven't had the chance to get into selecting cows for efficiency, but it’s time to look more closely at the replacements we are breeding. 

Senior Agri Managers at LIC Charlotte Gray and Rosanna Dickson discuss the “MINDA” tool, and how LIC creates bespoke understandings of what “efficient” is to each individual farmer. They discuss how to get the best from the best cows, the limitations of herd data, and ways of measuring efficiency.
