Dry off every cow on schedule, not late

Every Monday, WebRun opens DairyComp 305, calculates each pregnant cow's target dry-off date, 60 days before her expected calving date, adds anyone due within the next 14 days to Google Calendar, and sends your herdsman a Telegram list ranked by how soon, so no cow gets milked past her intended dry period.

In short

How do I know which cows are due to dry off?

WebRun calculates each pregnant cow's target dry-off date in DairyComp 305 every Monday, 60 days ahead of her expected calving, and adds anyone due within 14 days to Google Calendar. It sends your herdsman a ranked Telegram list, flags high-producing cows who may need a step-down plan, and drops cows off the list once they're actually dried off.

  • No cow gets milked past her intended dry period
  • High-producing cows are flagged early for a step-down plan
  • Cows already dried off drop off the list automatically

Questions, answered

How is the dry-off date calculated?

It's set at 60 days before the cow's expected calving date, calculated from her breeding date in DairyComp 305, which matches the standard dry period most herds target. You can adjust the target dry period if your protocol differs.

Will WebRun change the cow's ration or stop milking her automatically?

No. WebRun only schedules the reminder and flags high-producing cows who may need a step-down plan first. Your herdsman still makes the actual dry-off decision and carries it out.

What happens once a cow is dried off?

Once staff log the dry-off event in DairyComp 305, she drops off the next week's list automatically, so the reminder always reflects who's actually still due.
