Sandy Mitchell, owner of KSH Farm and Bryn Moore, herdmanager at KSH Farm share how CowManager helps the farm with the current labour challenge and antibiotics reduction. “CowManager is an extra member of staff in the cloud, looking at cows. Monitoring them, looking at health and fertility. We are now able to treat cows faster, more effectively, in a more timely manner, but also with using less antibiotics. We’ve reduced antibiotics by 60%. CowManager supports us in labour issues and antibiotics reduction”

Smart & Simple: How CowManager Works

Ear Sensors: Your cows have an ear for it: accurate information. Our ear revolutionary sensors collect data about your herd’s fertility, health and nutritional status.
(Solar) Routers: All real-time data is transmitted from our ear sensors and collected by wireless (solar) routers. These routers can be placed anywhere: in barns or pastures.
Smartphone and PC: Receive all the data on your smartphone and computer. Get real-time cow information, 24/7.
Herd Management System: Our system integrates with more than 40 herd management systems worldwide. When calculating alerts, we use data from both systems. Together we do better.

In the United Kingdom, CowManager is distributed and supported by World Wide Sires. No one knows the system better than them.
