The basic registration database - Basreg
The basic registration database system at the research centre stores automatically and manually registered data from the facility
The system is normally referred to as Basreg. It is used to both register and obtain data. The quality assured information gathered represents a vital foun- dation for the trial work and education that is con- ducted at the Swedish Livestock Research Centre.
Basreg is continuously developed on the basis of the researchers’ and departments’ wishes, the research centre’s own evaluation and what is tech- nically possible to register. There are examples of registrations in Basreg on the following pages.
Data that is not yet available in Basreg´s database can be found on the Swedish Livestock Research Centre´s SharePoint page for researchers, “Forskare Lövsta”.
