Imagine having that extra set of eyes on your herd, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. No need to look for cows that might need extra attention. The ability to detect diseases 1 or 2 days before a cow shows clinical signs of being ill. And always know when a cow is in heat. Sounds good? Well, then you’ll be all-ears for our cow monitoring system. With CowManager’s modules, you are fully prepared and have complete control over your herd’s performance.
Successful farming starts with a healthy herd. Our Health Module monitors the well-being of your herd 24/7. It is designed to detect any signs of illness allowing you to take preventive measures and provide prompt treatment. You will get alerted immediately when a cow is not eating, not ruminating, or having a change in behavior. Is a cow already sick? With our system you can monitor and control the recovery of a cow in detail.
“Dairymen can address the animals that need it, and not have to wait ’till the next day to see if they responded or not. They can be at lunch behind their computer and look at recovery in real-time.” – Scott Hecker, AI & CowManager Specialist (USA)
A healthy herd not only means less veterinarian costs, is also means a more fertile herd. Healthy cows are more likely to conceive. But it works the other way around too. Is a cow having trouble getting pregnant? There might be an underlying health issue. With CowManager you are in control of both aspects. The system ensures long-term success and profitability.
Thanks to the Fertility Module you’ll never miss a heat and always know when to breed. This allows you to take timely action and increases the chances of successful breeding. Fertility Insights gives you complete control over the cycle of each individual cow, you’ve got all the data about possible pregnancies, non-cycling cows, and even potential abortions.
“On the breed list, I use Fertility Insights to get more information on a suspicious cow. For example, I’ll look at a pregnant cow that maybe just had an increase of activity. If the increase is low and Fertility Insight says ‘pregnant’ I might let her go instead of checking her.” – Tiffany Schneider, Paulus Dairy LLC (USA)
An important period of time for a cow is the transition period, this period can lead to a variety of health issues and even impact a cow’s fertility. Therefor it’s essential you manage this period carefully. CowManager helps you monitor these risky dry cows for any critical signs to ensure a smooth transition, maintain a good health and achieve optimal reproductive performance.
Recognize cows at risk during the transition period with our Nutrition Module. If a dry cow shows decreased eating and rumination behavior, she has a higher risk of becoming ill after calving. This module provides you immediately with an alert. So you can intervene early and, more importantly, prevent losses.
“The insights provided by the Nutrition Module encouraged me to implement management changes, which led to a sustained dry matter intake of 38 lb. for our close-up cows. This has already contributed strongly to healthier fresh cows and higher peak milk production. I believe in a few months we will hit the 95 lb. milk production mark.” – Wilfried Reuvekamp, Hilltop Dairy (USA)

“We have now worked with CowManager for 2 years. It is the best system we have ever worked with. The combination of the three modules, Health, Fertility and Nutrition gives us 24/7 actionable insights into our herd. We can share the data easily with our veterinarian via MultiView. This gave us the opportunity to bring back the vet routine from weekly to bi-weekly, but still have 90% in calf.” Mark Robinson, Whiteoaks Farming (UK)
