-Growth Path can be used to model the seasonality of liveweight gains for steers and heifers. It has been updated to account for multiple weaning periods per year as well as supplementation and droughts. The modelled growth path can be displayed in a tabular or graphical form.

-Welcome to the step-by-step guide and user help manual for the [https://breedcowdynama.com.au Breedcow and Dynama] herd budgeting software package! This software is used to assess choices for the management of beef cattle herds run under extensive conditions. It is not an accounting package or a paddock records package and does not record individual animals. The term “herd budgeting” is used to emphasise the central role of herd dynamics in cattle enterprise budgeting.
