Dairy producers can speed up the genetic progress of their herds using NMR's new Genetracker; a genomic testing service that identifies the genetic potential of the animal from a very young age. A service already used in the UK for identifying the potential of young bulls, it is now becoming more popular for testing females, particularly heifers. Read more
Youngstock overview
The youngstock herd is where the highest genetic merit animals are normally held – they are the place where most genetic gain can also be made, using sire matching software from your breeding company. All youngstock records are included as part of the service you receive from NMR and can be found in iReports, as well as a paper ancestry report at birth.
Total Herd Recording (THR) - an option to pay for pedigree registrations per cow from numbers provided to the breed society by NMR rather than per certificate. Read more

Breeding overview
Getting the breeding policies in place to achieve your herd targets is critical in this competitive environment. NMR has invested heavily in giving you the tools to help you in this process, from PD testing re-using the existing milk sample, to sophisticated heat detection systems - there is something to help everyone.
The use of collars to detect heats and also to monitor animal behaviour has advanced significantly in the last 2-3 years, to also include health monitoring by tracking rumination and/or eating activity, enabling earlier identification of animal illness.
NMR now offers two automated heat detection & health monitoring solutions, to support the differing system and data connectivity requirements that farmers typically have.Read more

The pregnancy milk testing service from NMR uses ELISA technology to detect if an animal is pregnant. Able to be used from 28 days post service, trials have shown good levels of accuracy (97%). No additional sampling is required, the result is reported back via iReports, and animals that are classed as ‘Recheck', are automatically retested free of charge the following month. There is no minimum number of animals to be presented each month and no setup fee.Read more

IBR is caused by a bovine Herpes virus. It is a highly contagious disease that is associated with abortion and respiratory signs. Transmission of IBR can be via nasal/oral secretions or from bull semen. Once an animal becomes infected, it remains infected for life despite producing what appears to be a successful immune response.Read more
