Explore Topics Taught at the Conference
DHI-Plus Edge: Faster Workflows with Mobile & RFID
Take DHI-Plus into the field with Edge. Learn how to use RFID-enabled devices to quickly identify cows, complete tasks, and capture data in real time. This session focuses on building efficient workflows using tasks and mobile tools.
Real-Time Decisions in the Rotary Parlor
Learn how your workflow starts here—identifying cows by stall and managing actions like breeding and treatments, turning parlor time into decision time.
Accurate Commodity Tracking
Focus on building reliable processes for tracking commodities and harvests. If you want confidence in your feed and harvest data, this class shows you how to get there.
Before Bunk Management: Getting Refusals Right
Bunk management only works if your refusal process is dialed in. We’ll break down how to measure, track, and use refusal data to improve feeding accuracy, reduce waste, and control costs. This sets the stage for effective bunk management by making sure your inputs are accurate from the start.
Tracking Treatments: From Recording to Reporting
Accurate treatment records are critical for compliance, herd health, and decision-making. Learn how to properly record Rx treatments and health events in DHI-Plus, and how to turn that data into clear, actionable reports.
Making Sense of Genomic Traits
Genomic data can be powerful—if you know how to use it. This session breaks down key genomic traits and shows how to evaluate and apply them within DHI-Plus.
Reporting & Data in EZfeed
Build reports that answer real questions—whether it’s feeder performance, refusals, or inventory. We’ll also explore data exports and how API access can be used to integrate EZfeed data into other systems.
Set It Up Right: Getting Reliable Numbers in EZfeed
We’ll break down how EZfeed generates key metrics and walk through the settings that control them. From motion and scale readings to excess deviation and load behavior, you’ll learn what each setting does—and how to configure it for accurate, consistent results across your operation.
Connecting Your Systems: Monitoring & Parlor Integrations
Your herd data doesn’t live in just one place. Learn how DHI-Plus integrates with herd monitoring systems and parlor technologies to bring everything together.
Calf Management
Learn how to record and report on genomic traits, treatments, and weights to monitor rate of gain and overall calf performance. Build a foundation for stronger animals and better long-term results.
EZfeed and EZweights Basics
Start strong with EZfeed and EZweights. Walk through the fundamentals every new user needs—what to do, how to do it, and why it matters.
Getting Your Whole Team Involved: The Farm Audit Process
The most successful operations aren’t just using the software—they’re aligned as a team. See how combining data with on-farm observation can uncover opportunities to improve accuracy, efficiency, and communication across your operation.
