About UNIFORM-Agri

UNIFORM-Agri has been a specialist in dairy herd management software for over 30 years. This has enabled the company to become one of the most prominent international players in this specialist field. Dairy farmers in over 50 countries rely on UNIFORM dairy software to manage day-to-day operations with their cows. Fertility, production, health management and general administration all in one system is what farmers can expect with a UNIFORM program.

What’s more, its integrations with various brands of milking machines, heat detection sensors and many other on-farm sensors dramatically reduces the administrative work for farms. The ability to exchange data with national databases for cattle movement and laboratories for milk recording round off this complete system for farmers. The full package is also available as a smartphone app that can be used on farms.

UNIFORM-Agri very much appreciates the long-term relationship it has with farmers who have been using the software for over 10 generations of cows, which it reciprocates by providing an excellent level of customer support and regular software updates including some great additional features.
