Ford Vehicles Now Compatible With HVO Renewable Diesel
Continued fluctuations in fuel costs are putting pressure on many businesses, driving a significant spike in interest for electrified options like hybrids and alternative power sources.
All wearables have their place on a modern dairy operation, and each tells you something different about what is happening with your animals.
CowManager was built specifically for animal health and fertility monitoring - and it measures two things simultaneously from a single ear-mounted sensors: micro-movements and ear temperature.
That combination matters.
Ear temperature reflects blood flow through highly vascular tissue and correlates with immune activation and metabolic change before those changes alter how a cow moves or eats.
Micro-movement detection goes beyond gross activity - it reads the precise patterns of rumination, eating, and restlessness that indicate how an animal is truly functioning.
Run those two signals together through algorithms trained across millions of sensor-hours from calf to cow, and the result is alerts that reach you before the problem is visible from the race.
A Lifetime of Data. One System.
From the moment a calf is tagged, CowManager starts building her individual baseline.
Every alert she generates, every transition she goes through, every mating cycle - it's all part of the same continuous record.
By the time she's a mature cow, the system knows what normal looks like for her specifically, not just for the average of the herd.
No other system on the NZ market builds that picture from day one of life through to her final season - and now we will also monitor her from paddock through the shed!
The Shed Has Always Been the Gap
Everything we monitor happens between milkings, out in the paddock.
But twice a day, every cow passes through the shed, up until now that part of her day had been invisible.
At Fieldays, that changes.
CowManager is bringing monitoring into the milking shed for the first time.
Every cow, every quarter, every milking - milk quality indicators and animal health signals, per milking, available to your team in the same system you already use to manage the herd.
