CTAP© for Windows

CTAP (Current Test day Analysis Program) has been successfully used by veterinarians, consultants, nutritionists, extension specialists and dairy producers to analyze individual dairy herd performance.

CTAP is the ultimate software for consultants analyzing dairy records. Compare production data from current test day to previous to aid in monitoring changes and trends for increased profitability. It also allows the user to compare two herds with each other in the same summary or even a single herd against an average of herds in the same region. CTAP accesses processing centers for data and imports data from several on-farm dairy management programs. Evaluate production data from several different perspectives such as udder health, herd summaries, reproductive information, body score summaries and much more. Also CTAP enables you to create graphs to generate herd reports.

CTAP for Windows allows for point and click flexibility to receive additional information and change the presentation of graphs (i.e. change line graphs to bar graphs, etc.)

CTAP provides "Hints" on the screen when the mouse is used that provide explanations on the effect of selecting certain buttons, lists, etc.
