Let’s Be Honest It’s not always easy being a farmer. Keeping your herd healthy, complying with guidelines and being profitable at the same time is a tough job. We understand those challenges. In fact, we were in the middle of them. After four generations of farming, we discovered that farming could be done easier. It had to be done easier. And that’s why, in 1984, our story started. We’ve invented the first ear sensors for cows. And we’ve been frontrunners ever since. Today we make sure that you’re always ahead. Prepared for what’s coming. Have all the data you want at hand, at any time. Helping you reach your goals, whatever your ambitions are. And whether you have 20 or 20,000 cows… with our cow monitoring service you’ll have eyes on all of them. So let’s go for it and give your cows the best life possible. Share the benefits of our smart data solutions. Challenge us to come up with new necessary developments as well. Say moo to bad results. And let’s do better together.
