Hear what our users say about the Alertys Milk Pregnancy Test

John Holdcroft

200 cows, Burton upon Trent

"Apart from helping us to increase performance efficiency, the milk test is also improving herd welfare and saving time and labour, particularly when there is less help on the unit."

James Bargh

90 cows, Bentham

"The test keeps the cows in their daily routine during the early stage of pregnancy, with no need to separate them off from the herd for the vet to check. This is much less stressful and therefore better for the cows."

"The PregCheck service has been perfect for us and it brings great results. We are extremely satisfied and would highly recommend it to other farmers."

James and Cecil Brownlee

"As the test is non-invasive, there is no risk to heavily pregnant cows, while it also saves valuable time. All things considered, it’s another great tool to have at our disposal.”

Matt Hilton

750 cows, Bridgwater

“We find the test 100% accurate and picking up just a few cows that are not in calf pays for this test. As part of the trial we’re also adding a PAG test at 70 days post insemination, so we can identify cows where foetuses have been reabsorbed. This happens in about 6% of cows and picking them up straight away also makes commercial sense.”

Jim Boyd

260-cow East Kilbride-based Lettrickhills pedigree Holstein herd

"The milk test has consistently proved to be 98% to 99% accurate for both positive and negative tested cows. 3% to 4% fall into the recheck bracket and usually result in 80% to 85% being in calf; they are automatically retested at the next recording free of charge."

Adam Lawson

"The Milk Pregnancy Test is convenient and brings no stress and less handling for me and my cows. I am very satisfied with the test and would definitely recommend it to other farmers, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic."

140-cow pedigree Holstein Chettiscombe, Chevithorne

“In contrast, the PAG test is totally non-invasive, and that’s positive for the herd’s welfare. It saves time and labour, and it’s hassle free. It’s a win-win.”

Cyril Ostridge

80 cows, East Sussex

"I started to use the milk pregnancy test to bring less stress and less handling for both me and my herd. Plus, I experience a success rate of 98% even with the automatic milking system."

Christopher James

1200 cows, Pembroke

"The test’s biggest benefit is that we’re no longer having to handle the cattle. It’s one less job, it’s non-invasive, and it’s stress-free both for the herd and our team at a busy time of year, which also has the added workload of TB testing."

Patrick Stevens

240-cows, Upottery

"It’s a simple milk pregnancy checker that is delivering information to build up a picture and mathematical probability and it is helping us to respond more promptly to herd status."

Philip Mattinson

Philip Mattinson

320 cows, Cumbria

"It’s a labour-saving, time-efficient, and hassle-free method to check cows’ pregnancy. Now, I can accurately pregnancy check with little effort needed. I’m delighted with the benefits the test brings and would highly recommend it to other farmers."

Mark Davis

Mark Davis

220 cows, Westcott Farm

"Overall PAG is proving to be a very useful management tool and it is fitting in with the workload. There’s less handling and interference with the cows, consequently there’s less stress for both them and us, and what’s more, it has proved to be extremely accurate."

Patrick Connolly

Patrick Connolly

80 British Fresian cows, Longwood

"The reproductive health of my herd has improved as I am notified early of any issues and can get my Vet to check on the cows."
