SOUTH AFRICAN CATTLE BREEDS

Know the breed. Understand the animal.

Beefmaster, Bonsmara or another beef breed, your herd has its own story. Use AI to explore breed questions alongside the records of your individual animals.

Your Beefmaster herd, in focus.

Explore your Beefmaster records through the traits that matter to your breeding goals, from fertility and growth to milk and mothering.

Ask about your cattle
ONE QUESTION TO GET YOU STARTED

“Help me understand the recorded growth and milk breeding values in my Beefmaster herd.”

Breed questions are a starting point. Breeding values need their correct breed, evaluation release and accuracy. Individual records matter.

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT BE WONDERING

Let’s make it simple.

Questions about cattle records, Logix, breeding plans or getting started? Here are the details.

What is Veld cattle herd management software?

Veld brings your cattle records, photos, family trees, breeding plans and herd insights into one web application. It is built around the needs of South African beef and stud breeders, with AI help included in every paid plan.

Can I import cattle records from Logix and SA Stud Book?

Yes. Connect your authorised Logix account to request your herd records, pedigrees and available breeding values. Review the download before importing it into Veld. Your Logix access and any provider extraction charges remain separate from your Veld membership.

Can I bulk upload and download cattle records?

Import spreadsheets, review mapped fields and export your Veld records. For uploads to Logix, choose a supported submission type, provide the official file and review it before sending. Automatic outgoing registrations are not available yet.

Can AI turn a photo or spreadsheet into an animal record?

With any active Veld plan, attach animal photos, CSV spreadsheets or supported documents to Ask Veld. Veld helps extract the details into an editable draft beside the conversation. You review the fields and decide what is added to your herd. A photo alone does not establish parentage or genetic merit.

How does Veld help with cattle breeding and bull selection?

Use the breeding planner to compare recorded pedigrees, available breeding values and your chosen goals. Review ancestry, evaluation releases, accuracy and missing information before choosing a pairing. AI explains the records; it does not generate an official genetic evaluation or guarantee a breeding outcome.

Can I see cattle family trees and inbreeding information?

Veld displays recorded sire and dam relationships so you can explore a cattle pedigree and identify shared ancestry. Breeding comparisons use the pedigree information you have supplied. Incomplete ancestry is shown so you can review gaps before making decisions.

Does Veld work for Beefmaster and other South African cattle breeds?

Veld is designed for Beefmaster and other beef cattle herds, including breeders working with Bonsmara, Brahman, Boran, Nguni and Drakensberger cattle. Record your breed and keep its evaluation context. Breeding values from different breeds or incompatible evaluation releases must not be treated as directly interchangeable.

What is included in the free trial?

Start a three-day Premium trial with 200 AI credits in your top-up balance. No card is required and the trial creates no automatic charge. Unused trial credits stay in that balance for when you subscribe. Paid Pro includes 250 monthly AI credits, Premium includes 1,000 and Ultra includes 2,500.

Can Veld check Logix automatically?

Ultra includes optional incoming Logix checks while Veld is open, up to once every 15 minutes. Validated new and changed records can be brought into Veld. Local edits, deleted animals and uncertain matches are preserved for review. Turn checks off in Connections. Automatic sending to Logix remains unavailable.

Is Veld part of SA Stud Book?

Veld is independent herd management software. Logix and SA Stud Book remain separate services, and transfers require your authorised account. Veld is an official partner of Melampus Beefmasters.

Can I use Veld in Afrikaans?

Veld includes English and Afrikaans navigation. Switch EN / AF inside the app for familiar herd management terms, including kuddebestuur, stambome and teelbeplanning.
