Unique to Velcourt is weekly costing and recording programme that returns key production criteria in the form of physical and financial performance to the respective herdsperson/manager just three days after the end of the week. This rapid process allows precise control and analysis of each herd’s performance literally on a daily basis. Based on litres sold rather than lactation profiles this feedback allows the management team the ability to track their actual performance and costs against budget on a weekly and rolling 12 month basis and benchmark the herd’s performance against all of the other farms within the group. This ability to know exactly how your business is performing at any week of the year is both unique in the industry and key to ensuring the physical and financial success of Velcourt’s dairy clients.
