Designed with the Professional Nutritionist in mind, AMTS.Cattle.Pro incorporates the latest CNCPS Ver. 6.1 biology with an interface designed to minimize inputs. How is this done?

• User interface utilizes a Farm/Location/Group structure. Inputs that are common to a group (for example, temperature within a barn) are inputted once at the Location level and inherited by all groups within that location.
• Common Feed Library for Farm: all feeds available to be used on a farm in the same file. No need to re-input the same data between files!
• Import feed analysis data from participating labs
• On many farms, the same base recipe is fed to multiple groups. With AMTS.Cattle.Pro, you can model the herd using Recipes. Simply assign a recipe to different groups, change the inputted intake for the group, and evaluate the results! Plus, when you make a change to the recipe, it updates the recipe for all groups it is fed to!

Consultants using AMTS.Cattle.Pro have told us:

“The multi-group layout takes half the time to model and formulate a herd compared with competing products....”

What about optimization?

AMTS.Cattle.Pro utilizes the latest in optimization technology (a genetic algorithm). This method, unlike any other optimizer used today, gives you, the professional nutritionist, more decision making control. This is because, as a non-linear system, there is really no one perfect solution. Rather, you tell the optimizer “show me five (or 10, or 100) solutions”. You then pick from these solutions the diet you think is best! In this way, you, the professional nutritionist, has final say as to what the diet is.

Additionally, this new optimizer has two objective functions: Least Cost with constraints OR Maximize Income Over Feed Costs. AMTS experience and research has shown that just by changing the objective function like this, income over feed cost can be improved anywhere from 5 to 10%. Imagine the feedback from your clients, with today’s feed prices, if you improved their IOFC 10%.

AMTS LLC strongly believes that every new user of AMTS.Cattle.Pro should go through a training process. It really isn’t about the software. It’s the biology. To take full advantage of the powerful CNCPS model, you need to understand how it works. If you have no prior experience with CNCPS or CPM Dairy, we highly recommend five days of training. If you have previous experience, we recomment three days.
