Monitoring methods

Two main approaches: paper (register) and digital. Paper is mandatory but time-consuming. Digital, through an app like AniCore, enables real-time tracking, automatic reminders and easy sharing with your veterinarian.

Key indicators to track

Focus on these indicators: reproduction rate, average weight, health status, treatment history and location. These give you a complete picture of your farm's economic and animal health.
