Dept to redesign AgFood and want your input.

You get a text message about correspondence on agfood.

You go to agfood and can't find it.

Agfood needs a notification tab

Haven't Reset mine in a few years. When I had a senior moment and forgot pac while trying to do a movement

Haven't used it in years. Use herdwatch for everything.

If farming in a Company, you need 2 different logins. I can never make out the difference and can never find the correct login page for each type.

Then woth one of them, if you haven't logged in with over a month, you're locked out and you have to ring Dublin for a new password...its muck.

Once you enter the bull’s tag number or AI code once you can save it for future use

Same. Might save it to end off session but definitely not there the next time I log in

There are two version of Agfood one is for individual log ins and the other for agents, ie Companies, advisors and Department staff. The password for the agent login needs a different password every 6 weeks and will lock you out after a period of inactivity I'm not sure how long it is tho.

Agfood needs to look more like herdwatch and less like it was designed by someone who had never met a farmer before.

only works for that session, if you go out of the site then you loose it

The menu at the start is very long too

I fairness you can have all cattle on the list when on phone login. See entry selection in middle of mine. Pick 10. 15. 25. Or all.

I don't have a problem registering calves on it, the calf number is shown, enter the last 4 digits of the cow tag, pity the last 4 digits for the stock bull doesn't bring up his tag number too. I only noticed lately that the stock bulls have a LM code number, maybe that would suffice instead of keying in full tag number.

same for me with AI codes

It's trying to get bulls on the list and off the list is the problem. An angus is on the list from a few years ago and I can't get a Lim bull on the list for this years calves. I've to type in the lim bulls full tag number and then tick the save sire details or whatever that box is and then it'll work for that session registering calves. But if a montbeliarde calf comes in among the lims then I've the type in the full tag number again for the next lim calf.

Better to have the bull number saved in an xl sheet, then copy and paste

Possibly. But I wouldn't like to hold the bulls to schedule like that since it's not their fault just a website.

I use MyGovId to log in, much handier and if you need to back track or leave the page you're on, you don't have to go through the login process again.

I did the survey, but it doesn't really capture the overhaul that's needed. I usually don't venture much onto agfood up till a couple of weeks ago after seeing this thread. It is woeful. I've spent time going through it and wrote up a report with observations/issues I'd seen/stupid things they do/etc and mailed it off to them as well.
