SWOT Analysis: Cull-or-Keep Card: Remaining-Lifetime-Milk Projections for Highland Crossbred Dairy Cows

A per-cow decision aid that projects each cow's remaining lifetime milk from her parity, latest yield, and calving season, and compares it with the cost of a replacement heifer — telling smallholders and cooperative advisors whether to keep, rebreed once more, or replace each cow.

The SWOT analysis reveals a strong evidence-based foundation for predicting cow longevity in a specific niche, leveraging existing data streams to solve a high-value problem. While the technical logic is sound, the primary risks are the fragility of local data quality and the potential for farmers to ignore data-driven advice in favor of traditional heuristics.
