Background

Before rolling out Alpacuna Herds, Alpacuna had already supported Europe’s largest fleece show—processing 300+ fleeces in just 1.5 days. This was enabled by Alpacuna Shows, which fully digitizes registrations, ring lists, scoring, and certificates.

Solution: Alpacuna Herds for Associations

Since early 2025, the AAA has used Alpacuna Herds—a modern, cloud-based herd management system tailored to breeding associations and their members. The platform provides:

  • Central, digital breeding registry at association level
  • Structured approval workflow for new animals
  • Member access via any browser—mobile, anytime, anywhere
  • Clear master data views including health, pedigree, and more

Results & Impact

  • Efficient: Significantly less administrative effort thanks to a single source of truth
  • Secure: Consistent, validated data replaces fragmented spreadsheets and lists
  • Practical: Workflows mirror real association duties end to end
  • Scalable: From single-breeder setups to a national registry on one platform

Conclusion

Alpacuna Herds demonstrates that modern breeding administration can be efficient, secure, and practical—all at once.
