Pedigree Systems

The Boar Inventory records boar movements. This includes arrival into isolation, transfer into the active boar herd and departure from the stud. You can also:

• Choose days of the week to collect a particular boar, or alternatively to set a minimum collection interval.
• Block boars from collection until further notice
• Set the default semen product that the boar will be used for, independent of breed.
• Record boar pedigrees
• Use the Notebook for making general notes / comments on a particular boar

The Collections editor records boar collection details and allows the portioning of this semen into doses for sale.

• Collections can be split into multiple portions if necessary.
• The number of doses is calculated automatically using the semen density, volume and desired concentration per dose. The required volume of diluent / semen is displayed.
• This screen can be linked to the colorimeter, used to drive the diluent pump, and communicate with IMV flat packing equipment.
• Semen batches waiting processing can be labelled.
• Previous boar performance is shown graphically and compared with the breed average
• Orders outstanding for the day are compared graphically with doses collected

The Morphology screen allows multiple quality control measurements to be made on each collection.

• Choose from a simple motility check to an extensive semen morphology assessment.
• Measurements can be made on day of collection or on any day thereafter.
• Keyboard mapping to facilitate counting of semen defects.

The Treatments, Blood Tests and Temperature editors provide health monitoring and can prevent boars from being collected if certain drugs are administered.

Use One–Off Orders for entering and processing single orders.

• Products must be in stock before they can be allocated

Use the Customer database to keep a record of all customers.

• Each customer has a health status which must be less than or equal to the stud health status before orders can be placed.
• An order block facility can also be used to block customers with poor credit from ordering new stock.

Use the Productsdatabase to maintain a list of products available from the stud
