Beef Genomics Scheme

What's the story with the payment for this scheme? haven't heard anything since I send off the samples a few months ago.

Haven't heard but be well out in the year I'd say as 2 of my calves are still "too young" to record info on ICBF ..

First step is to register with the dapt of ag, http://www.agriculture.gov.ie/agfoodiehelpvideos/howtoregisterforagfoodie/

Let me know how it goes, any questions just ask, this is free, but there is a small charge, I think it's 60yoyo a yr to register with icbf. The best thing about registering calves online is that they query if you are trying to register a calf too soon after the previous calf. It prevents you getting the blah blah letter in the post.

blue5000 is spot on, agfood.ie is free, you can register your own calves , if you sell on the land you can print off your own movement certs and don't need to be faxing cork to get permits in post, at any stage you can view your herd profile as department see it.. no wondering is that cow n calf showing in my herd yet etc


my advice would be to start off with agfood.ie and when you get knacky at it , join the icbf .. I could live without the icbf membership but as im in a BTAP group I have to have it


now getting back to genomics id say you will get a hard copy to fill in calf quality, docility, etc etc whether its on paper or filled in on icbf its handy few bob

Had forgotten all about that and did all ours earlier that were of age on agfood along with all the calving difficulties!

Useful thread for me

Animal Events Recording System--> Beef Data Program/
Additional Genetic Information.

Easy enough to figure out!

Lads don't get confused.

Beef Genomics Scheme involved taking ear notch sample on cows and stock bull and sending in the post.
This scheme is to enable ICBF build a database of genomics based on these samples.

Beef Data Programme is where you need to complete data on calves born in the herd.

Are these schemes not a total waste of time since horsemeat as factories are gearing up to deal with the glut of dairyx stock and will barely look at a high genetic merit continental?

you're right but you cant be in one without doing the other but yes I collectively called it beef genomics which is incorrect and I had my genomics samples done and was just waiting for last 2 calves to go over the 5 months of age to complete task and get payment on both

Says Beef Geonomics has been paid on Agfood so should hit account tomorrow

Kovu

The beef data E20 per calf must be paid in early 2015 so. It's all something anyway towards feeding them

Log on to agfood.ie, there is dropdown box that starts with I think, beef payments?? not sure now, but third or fourth line down is personal payments summary for 2014, says mine was paid today, aib are 'minding' it (or as Father Ted would say ''letting it rest in the account'') for a while.:mad:

No text here either . I tend to only use icbf for all data recording. I only register calves and do movements on agfood. Beginning to doubt myself now that I am not fully compliant to qualify for payment 😯

Yes I got text today. Money was in account yesterday.

Any ideas??

I must have missed that day at school. 😞

Tech support very helpful. To get that button added to the screen I need to fill out a form with phone number and pps number and sign it . It is being sent out by post today to me. button can't be added until the form is back and processed .

funny thing is I always get the text messages about sfp in account so they do have my phone number.

All sorted so I would advise anyone else that does not see the financial services button to contact dept of ag tech support to get it sorted out .

Thanks for that info.

Thing is, I have used Agfood for years.
You would think they would send an email, or put a notice on the website, regarding changes and additional features being added over time.
Didn't get a mail and there is nothing on the website to advise clients that there are additional or new features available.
