Your farm is unique, your herd genetics is unique, your location is unique, your forages are unique, your people are unique, your management style is unique…
Why would you work with generic models?

OPTIMIZATION FOR GROSS MARGIN
adjust to your constraints
SUFFERING FROM
DECISION FATIGUE ?
How should we feed our cows if milk price drops significantly, or feed cost increases exponentially, or the milk processing plant asks us to reduce or increase our milk delivery?
algoMilk will help you to adjust for:
Milk Price Volatility
Feed Cost Changes
Milk Market Fluctuations
GRAPHIC 1.- Example milk and raw materials markets for a farm in Europe. Left axis: IOFC, Right axis: milk yield per cow. X-axis: euros per cow/d (the more protein and energy density
more euros). If feed investment > €5.8 per cow, the greater the production the lower the benefits.
GRAPHIC 2.- Production analytics of two different groups. Searching for the optimum supply of protein and energy, and feed investment to maximize IOFC
wellness
accurately assigning individual cost of each pathology
gross margin damage
know the cost of the main pathology in your own farm
minimize your losses
algoMilk will let you know the direct production cost (or loss) of a milk fever, a retain placenta, mastitis, lameness, BRD, etc… in your unique herd conditions
Graphic 3.- Example of the cost of one case of a mild mastitis.
valuable data
remove the noise trust your data
no more intuition
no more guesswork
just data-driven decisions
algoMilk integrates technical performance with economic results in a single database. The highest feed efficiency is not always the one yielding the highest gross margin (IOFC) or the highest milk production does not always generate the greatest gross margin. Biology, nutrition, and economics must be integrated to achieve the greatest profit and sustainability at any given moment.

the value of THE PHENOTYPE
algoMilk is an effective tool to provide reliable phenotypic data for genetic improvements. For instance, it allows to have accurate estimates of individual feed efficiencies for the cows in a given herd. Combining this phenotype with genomic data helps drawing strategies for genetic progress. A pen with a feed efficiency of 1.5 holds cows with efficiencies as low as 1.0 and as high as 2.5, and the same occurs with the profit contribution from each cow
