• Dairy Health Manager

  The objective of the DHM simulator is to compare strategies for controlling the health of the dairy cattle herd. By modifying livestock management actions, such as the herd mating policy, the use of treatments,... the biological functions of the animals and their interactions are modified, and ultimately, the productivity of the herd is impacted. DHM provides results in terms of health (number of animals treated and deaths), milk and reproductive performance, and economic margin.
