Pasture Select - Animals

Pasture Select is a unique aspect of GEM that allows you to create a set of animals from a location at your operation. You first have to create the locations on GEM (see Administration-Locations) and then move animals into those locations (see Batch Jobs-Change Locations). After the latter two operations are completed, when you click on Pasture Select you get the first screen shown below. This is a set up screen where you can identify the classes of animals (including embryos) that you wish to bring to a system location set. This is done via the check boxes on the screen. In this example the selection of animals from the location Express Ranches would be adults (animals with a weaning date or greater than 330 days of age) females (cows). As the screen is set below you would select from all the locations at Express Ranches which would be an unlikely selection. In most cases you would go to the location selection window which is accomplished by clicking on the link 'Click for selection window'. This will take you to the second screen shown below which is a pop up screen showing locations.
