What do you record?
The dry-period record brings reproduction timing and milking state into the same animal history.
- The dry-off task connected to pregnancy and expected-calving work.
- The dry-off operation and the change in the animal's milking state.
- Dry-period checks with condition and udder notes added to history.
- Follow-up work added to the agenda when its protocol is enabled.
Follow the dry period in three steps
Planning, recording, and review stay on one animal timeline.
Record the operation
Complete dry-off on the correct animal profile and confirm that the milking-state change is reflected in the record.
Read the follow-up history
Review the dry-period check, condition and udder notes, upcoming work, and calving context together.
What can you review later?
The record shows the pregnancy and task context in which dry-off was completed.
- Find the dry-off event on the animal's timeline.
- Read milking state and prior milk records in the animal context.
- Reopen dry-period checks and the related condition or udder notes.
- When its protocol is enabled, separate upcoming or overdue follow-up work in Tasks.
Operator notes
Alprivo organizes records and work. It does not set clinical timing.
- Agenda protocols can be edited. Your veterinarian's plan remains authoritative for dry-period action and clinical follow-up.
- Any automatic follow-up statement applies only when its protocol is enabled; a disabled protocol does not create the task.
Dry-off questions
Short answers about tasks, milking state, and clinical boundaries.
Where does a dry-off task come from?
When the relevant protocol is enabled, pregnancy and expected-calving work can place a dry-off task in the agenda.
Is the operation connected to milking state?
Yes. The dry-off record is reviewed alongside the animal's milking state and history.
Does the app prescribe clinical timing?
No. Protocol settings organize farm work, while your veterinarian's plan remains authoritative for clinical decisions.
