That technology probably follows from something that is in the bovine herd and will last maybe 15 years, if we look at how we register calves. It is online and works in a matter of minutes. One can do it in the shed and by the time one gets back above, one will have the card the next day. We are looking at a system that will not work as fast but will have the similar trait of delivering on the ground. A database of mares and stallions will be achieved at that stage, so the online system would be time-efficient. Is that appropriate?
