Converting big data to small decisions is one of the emerging focuses on farm for James Mann, Chair @Dairy_Australia.
A barrier to this is sensors not talking to one another to support cow, paddock & farm decisions #herd21au

A big thanks to @NationalHerdImp @Dairy_Australia & @VicGovDJPR 4 putting on a fabulous dinner tonight. It’s been a fantastic day at #Herd21AU The speakers have done a fantastic job & the company has been superb! 🙏to all who attended @ABCRural @NationalFarmers @stockandland

Wrapping up day 1 of Herd’21 with @jenniepryce summarizing DairyBio21-26. Combining next-gen genomics & high tech phenotyping to deliver:
🐄long lasting cows for lifetime profit
🐄adapting to a changing environment

IDDEN is testing automation of data exchange to enable single entry multiple use for multiple countries says Matt Shaffer #Herd21Au

[Dr Jo Newton OAM @JoNewton89]

A key theme from talks by Donagh Berry @teagasc 🇮🇪& Deborah Santschi @Lactanet_Canada 🇨🇦 this morning is that data driven decision support tools need to be:
🐄easy to use
🐄understandable
🐄adaptable & interactive
🐄 available in real-time #herd21au

Jacqui Suares OAM & Ginfo Project Coordinator says integration of data for farms is critical. She highlights it needs to be simple, precise and beneficial. We’ve got the information and we need to use it to look after our business #Herd21Au #Ginfo #dairy #dairygenetics #genomics

Dr Jeffrey Bewley @HolsteinUSA states we can learn a lot from the sports industry and the way they use their data #Herd21AU #herdtesting #herdimprovement #buildingbetterherds #ImprovingHerds #dairydata #dataanalytics #datascience #genomics #dairygenetics

[Holstein Australia @HolsteinAust]

Dr Bewley @HolsteinUSA says we can learn from other industries to conduct genetic evaluations within the dairy sector to provide valuable phenotypic info for improving genetic selection #Herd21AU #herdimprovement #buildingbetterherds #ImprovingHerds #dairydata #dairygenetics

[Dr Jo Newton OAM @JoNewton89]

When it comes to developing new phenotypes for the dairy industry the future is image & milk analysis predicts Dr Jeffrey Bewley. Thanks for joining Herd’21 from late at night in the US @bewleydairy #herd21au
