This software represents a revolutionary solution for small-, medium- and large-herd dairies of 50 to 100,000 cows. AfiFarm 4 enables farm managers to supervise their team's activities with an advanced user management system that offers improved authentication, authorization and auditing mechanisms. Critical for managing large farms, these features incorporate advanced improvements for control, diagnostics and monitoring in the milking parlor.

"We are milking 7,000 cows with three 80-stall rotary milking parlors, all managed by the AfiFarm 4 system," says Mr. Haitao, farm manager of Fedong Farm, of the Modern Farming company. "AfiFarm 4 gives us all the data we need to manage and analyze a herd of 20,000 cows. This software allows us to collect and manage data from large herds and milking parlors at the same time."

In addition to AfiFarm 4, afimilk is releasing a unique online management system, AfiFarm Net. This system allows overall simultaneous management of an unlimited number of farms that may be located in different geographic areas without limitation. AfiFarm Net's advanced user interface displays and compares data from multiple farms, and can deal with all relevant subjects including herd structure, fertility, health and milk production. Further, the system allows dairy managers/owners to share and analyze data with external experts like veterinarians or nutritionists.

Further illustrating AfiFarm's ability to ensure superior dairy performance, progressive AfiFarm user Thomas Steele of Northern Ireland, was recently crowned "UK & Ireland Dairy Farmer of the Year 2012". afimilk would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Mr. Thomas Steele on his success.

afimilk provides dairy producers the technology and the knowledge to profitably produce high-quality milk. Committed to meeting all needs of the modern dairy farm, afimilk seeks to enhance such crucial areas as fertility, health, feed, herd planning, milk quality and farm management.

afimilk systems are at work in more than 50 countries on five continents. Kibbutz Afikim and Fortissimo Capital, Israel's leading private equity firm, are the two shareholders in afimilk.
