Every Arla farmer was given the chance to go to on farm meetings to explain AG+, shown how to score and how to input the data. Many of the reps have also offered to help members who have struggled with the input. You are obviously computer literate to be posting on here. The Arla website for AG+ has videos to explain the cattle scoring the rest is very straight forward. We also had member meetings going through the merits and reasons for Arla garden plus. It took me an afternoon milking watching the cows as they left the parlour and less than 20mins ton input the data this time. the first input will take a bit longer but it has been well designed and tested by farmers to ensure it is easy to do.
I do understand the artic issue, but it maybe worth having it appraised by the depot even if Artics are not operating in your area. I do get that some roads just don't allow it but many farms do manage deliveries of farm inputs with Artics.
I don't doubt its easy. But some farmers just don't want anyone else knowing their business. They see it being simular to RT.
Does it do anything commercially? That would be my question if i was being asked to do it.(I am not seeking an answer to that)
