Alltech Navigate
The zero-fee advice service designed to help dairy and beef operations drive higher profit margins by reducing feed waste and optimising farm input utilisation.
✔ Protect Production Profitability by increasing margins.
✔ Advance Agri-Food Sustainability by reducing net carbon emissions.
✔ Support Natural Immunity by helping build a natural system of defence.
There are many uncontrollable factors putting pressure on dairy and beef producers:
- Continued market volatility
- Rising environmental-based compliance measures
- Feed input costs
Alltech® Navigate™ pilot studies* have revealed that as much as 45% of grown and purchased feed inputs are either lost or under-utilised from the field to the bulk tank or abattoir.
Alltech Navigate helps dairy and beef producers to future-proof by controlling the controllable.
There is a margin opportunity of £261/animal/annum* available from reducing feed waste.
The service is founded on the principle of assessing, analysing and actioning data — making data a truly valuable resource to both the farmer and the wider food chain.
Step 1: Assess
First, we assess the critical pinch points in four main stages across the whole feed process, looking at all areas where waste typically occurs.
Step 2: Analyse
A unique computerised system of algorithms analyses the assessed data into actual feed wastage percentages and respective financial losses.
Step 3: Action
A concise report containing prioritised actionable recommendations gives key decision-makers greater ability to make independent and well-informed investment and management decisions. The report will also benchmark against a comparative group.
