Dairy farms
Dairy farm management software around the milking routine
A dairy farm runs on routines that repeat twice or three times a day. Chickensystem keeps those routines, the health records and the feed in one place, next to the figures from your milking system.
Routines that repeat every day
Milking, cleaning the parlour and the bulk tank, feeding, checking the cows and calves: the same tasks, at the same times, done by different people on different shifts. When a step is skipped, it usually shows up later in milk quality or animal health.
Where the risks are
- A treated cow whose milk withdrawal period is not known to the next shift
- A cleaning routine that is skipped on a busy day
- Feed stock that runs low before the next delivery
- Health observations that stay in one person’s head
How it is configured
From the dairy template
We start from our dairy template and set up the routines, health forms and stock items for your farm with you.
Milk figures from your systems
If your milking or herd system can export its data, we integrate it, so milk figures sit next to your own registrations.
Checklists for each shift
Routines are scheduled per shift with reminders, and the dashboard shows what was missed.

Frequently asked questions
Does Chickensystem replace our herd management software?
Not necessarily. Many dairy farms keep their herd or milking software and use Chickensystem for routines, health observations, feed and stock — connected where possible.
Can milk data come from our milking system?
If the system offers an export or an API, we can integrate it.
Is the dairy setup finished?
It is a starting template that we complete together with each farm.
Can treatments be recorded with withdrawal periods?
Yes, with treatment days and withdrawal periods visible to everyone on the farm.
