Summary

ABRI developed customised software that allowed the research data to be:

Input manually and/or via electronic files
Stored in a BREEDPLAN standard format
​Extracted into a standard format suitable for AGBU research.
The system was initially populated with test data based on the Struan information that was available by the Australian Limousin Society from their database. The Progress report dated March 2001 outlined the results of this successful testing. The report demonstrated that the system was available and functional.
