The AHD system works by importing data files from feedlots and where authorised grading data from the MSA program, slaughter feedback data files and disease and defect data files from processing plants.

This collection of data allows the AHD system to conduct analysis that generates reporting covering:

  • Feedlot health performance and benchmarking.
  • Feedlot production performance and benchmarking.
  • Vendor health and production performance and benchmarking (feedlot, slaughter and whole of life).
  • Processing plant yield, offal loss and grading performance and benchmarking.
