Benefits of this Course

  1. You will use the ICBF web site to monitor herd profile, choose sires and examine all the breeding information on offer
  2. The days of posting out reports are becoming out of date. It's wasted days. You will use the internet to speed up processes
  3. The internet will be as essential as a bulk tank on a dairy farm or a tractor on a tillage farm. It's a pivotal instrument of farming as information records and analysis are fast becoming the means for increasing profit
  4. ICBF figures for 2007 show that, of the 3,079 farmers that are Herd Plus customers, 74% have signed up for the electronic reports option instead of waiting for paper reports
  5. Course participants have been shown to check weather forecasts, how to tax their car, use the revenue web site and file tax returns, all online
  6. The Department of Agriculture web site is accessed and farmers were shown how to look up their area aid and single payment application as well as download any information or application forms they might need
  7. You will learn how to use on-line banking and how to e-mail and send attachments

"This course has helped me within all areas of my business. I can now check the weather online and prepare for the day ahead"

"The Department web site is very good. I can look up my area-aid online and I use it a lot for getting movement certs for animals. If I sell an animal privately and I apply for a movement cert before 3pm that day, the permit will be in the post tomorrow" Bernard Nealon
