Female Inventory
Female Inventory is an essential step for members in the annual recording process. The forms are available to all members in their member download area, as well as in a paper copy if requested.
Members can remove (fate) from or add females to their inventory and change the registration status of animals using these forms. After the Inventory forms have been processed at Angus Australia the Member Services team generate members their individual herd calf record forms. These forms are pre-printed with all the active calving females that the member has retained in the female inventory.
Females become eligible for Inventory fees in the year they turn two.
Inventory fees are invoiced based on the member’s returned inventory forms and must be paid prior to registering any progeny.
