The welfare of our TMS farmers and staff is paramount and therefore, we have suspended all TMS assessment visits. It is a regretful decision, but one which we feel is necessary to protect welfare for all. We will be constantly reviewing and monitoring the situation and will reinstate assessments as soon as it is safe to do so.
Whilst we will not be visiting your farm, please be assured that our team is here for you. If you have any concerns about your transition cows, would like to discuss how to tackle particular issues you are seeing or generally just to ask for advice to improve performance and management, then please do not hesitate to contact us - all our details are in the website "Contact" page.
Thank you for your support of TMS and your understanding in this situation.
Bets wishes and health to you and your teams during this difficult time.

Congratulations to our TMS 2019 Winners!!

Welcome to TMS

To determine transition performance, Premier Nutrition has devised a monitoring system called the Transition Management System (TMS). It is the only UK on-farm recording service to evaluate cow health and performance throughout the transition period.

TMS is suitable for both large and small herds. All you need to do is register… we do the rest.

Our TMS Manager will arrange a farm visit every month to impartially assess your herd. The system interprets body condition, rumen fill, lameness and hock hygiene of all dry and fresh cows and heifers, which is combined with the farm’s milk quality data, if this is available. This generates a TMS score and a monthly report which should be reviewed with your nutritionist.
