Calf-Reg App



What the Calf-Reg app is

Calf-Reg enables farmers to register calves conveniently from their smartphones. The app allows you to increase your productivity by completing calf registrations wherever you are.


Calf-Reg’s features

Connected to your AgFood account, Calf-Reg allows you to complete the following tasks:

  • create, save and submit calf registrations directly to Animal Identification and Movement (AIM)
  • view registrations including those not sent, awaiting registration and recent registrations that have been completed in the last 30 days
  • stored data allows you to view the tag number, date of birth and breed of all female animals in your herd, along with all unused tags currently available to you
  • the app works offline so that you may record registrations and submit them later when you have internet access

As well as completing basic calf registrations, Calf-Reg also records genetic details such as genetic dam, sire tag number, AI code and the calving survey.

Before using the Calf-Reg app on your mobile device, you should note the following important points:

  • you must be registered on agfood.ie for online services to use the Calf-Reg app
  • if you are not registered with agfood.ie, go to the site, click the register button and follow the instructions
  • you must be registered as a herdkeeper on agfood.ie to register the birth of an animal
  • the animal must be registered within 27 days of its birth
  • you can only register tags which have been issued to your own herd

The Department has produced detailed guidance on how to use the app.
