Welcome to WestfaliaSurge Australia’s local DairyPlan page.

We’ve created this page to help Australian dairy farmers use DairyPlan to its full capabilities!

In the Download section you can access all editions of DPNews, plus a selection of locally designed DPList reports. To test drive these reports just download them to your computer and paste them into the DairyPlan directory on your computer’s C Drive. Opening this report on your own computer will automatically draw in your own cow data.

Locally designed DPList files currently in the download section:

Future Sorting Date & Direction

If selection methods is set as shown in DP News this report will show

·        The Selection date (if “Selection Just Once on Date” is used, or a date is entered)

·        Which selection switch(s) are being used

·        If the sorting is for today or in the future

·        Which direction the cow will be sorted

Note:  If your gates are set up differently you can call DP Support to change the report to suit your farm and sorting setup.

Sortings via Date

A great report if you have cows scheduled to sort in two days.  This report will show the cows to be sorted between two dates.  It should be used to show today’s and future sortings for the selection method of “Selection Just Once on Date”, not for previous sortings or the method of “By Individual Cow Selection Setting”.

Animals that have Sorted

This is a report that will list animals that have been sorted already.  In the grey question bar, date & time ranges can be entered to limit the report to only display animals that have been sorted during that particular time.  The report will show the date, time, sorting unit number, cow number and which direction they went (A, B, C or D).
