Seasonal destocking status report

When undertaking seasonal destocking, you will likely need to determine whether the individuals specified were sufficient to provide the required animal equivalents needed to meet the pasture limits. Fortunately, CLEM tracks the required values for reporting:

  • AeToDestock represents the calculated Adult Equivalents needed to be removed from the herd to meet the pasture protection limit
  • AeDestocked the Adult Equivalents that were removed by the activity
  • AeShortfall is the Adult Equivalent that were not available to meet the required reduction

You will need to add an APSIM Report component to your simulation. In future we may develop an automated version of this report.

This example assumes the Perform predictive seasonal stocking activity is called "SeasonalDestock"

Once this report is added you will need to assign the following settings.

[Clock].Today as Date

[SeasonalDestock].PasturePredicted as PasturePredicted

[SeasonalDestock].PastureShortfall as PastureShortfall

[SeasonalDestock].AeToDestock as AERequired

[SeasonalDestock].AeDestocked as AEProvided

[SeasonalDestock].AeShortfall as AEShortfall

You could add additional female properties such as weight, normalised weight, weight at last conception, ProportionOfHighWeight, ProportionOfNormalisedWeight, ProportionOfSRW or any others that may be useful in your analysis.

The following event is fired whenever the seasonal destocking is performed whether a reduction is required or not.

[SeasonalDestock].ReportStatus

Run your simulation and the breeding details report will be in the datastore with the same name as given to the report
