Bovitrak - accurate data yields improved profits

Margins are thin and getting thinner. Bovitrak gives feedlot operators better control over their product and their markets. Processors will pay a premium for uniform lots of animals that meet their specific requirements. Bovitrak can help you realize significant additional value per head over the course of an animal's lifetime.

As a background feeder or feedlot operator, you already know that it's easier to market calves when you can predict which ones will make the best beef. When you form an alliance with a producer or processor, your overall influence on the beef supply chain increases exponentially. Bovitrak makes it possible to predict calf performance in your feedlot and carcass performance down the line - all at the click of a mouse.

Armed with information previously available only to large, vertically integrated organizations, you can now play a much more proactive role in planning the future of your operation. Making results repeatable and predictable allows you to command a higher dollar for your product. Removing the element of uncertainty makes your product more desirable for value-based branded programs that need source-verified beef of consistent quality. And you know how much bankers like predictability.

What sort of information can Bovitrak supply?

• Each animal has a complete history, tracked online through individual identification ear tags.
• Vaccinating and deworming calves "just in case" becomes a thing of the past. Scan the ear, log in the number and see exactly what the animal does or doesn't need. Minimize costly stress on the animal and save yourself money.
• Why do some animals thrive on the feedlot and others not? Bovitrak compares performance against known characteristics such as genetic background, shipping distance, handling or place of origin to discover which variables produce the best results for you.
• With Bovitrak, you can follow your cattle right to the hook. Eliminate the guesswork in trying to predict how an animal will dress - now you can fine-tune purchasing to meet the needs of the final consumer.
