Herd Management Software
Dairy Comp 305 and Scout 

Minnesota DHIA offers two herd management software programs, Scout and Dairy Comp 305. We offer on-farm installation and training for these software products along with a technical support line. Workshops and seminars are also offered to dairy producers to ensure these herd management programs are utilized to their fullest.

Herd management software can provide fast, easy, cost effective individual cow and herd information. With numerous customizable reports and graphs you have instant information at your fingertips. 

Minnesota DHIA supports and distributes:
· Dairy Comp 305

 · Scout

 · PCDART. 


Having the data available at the push of a button eliminates digging through books or reams of reports to find the information you need.  Each cow has its own individual page that includes information on the cows events (fresh, breedings, etc.), genetic, test day results, previous lactation and lactation graphs.  

 Beyond individual cow information, to help manage your herd you can:

 · Generate work lists for vet check, vaccinations, cows to dry off, cows due soon, foot  trim, Johne’s testing and many more!

 · Monitor all health events for all lactations on all animals.

 · Manage Synchronization programs easily.

 · Faster access to test day lab information.

 · Manage you hospital pen with detailed treatment protocols.

 · Analyze your herd’s performance with provided reports or build your own reports.

 · Interface your parlor electronic milk weight system with Dairy Comp 305 or PCDART.

 · Take your software program with you on a Pocket PC or cell phone to look up cow information anywhere.
