Welcome to CAFRE Benchmarking

Nifais-On-Line Users: When reporting an abortion, or dead calf that has not been registered previously, please use the “Notify Calf Death” option under the “Birth/Death” menu. Ignore the references to untagged animals as all abortions or dead calves now require tagging, under BVD legislation, and these screens will be updated in due course.

Please be aware that NIFAIS will be unavailable on Sunday between 08.30am and 12.00pm for essential maintenance on the network. We apologise for any inconvenience.
