CowSignals® is a simple and practical approach to improve dairy management. The goal is to improve cow welfare and increase income and working pleasure for the farmer. Happy cows, happy farmers!
Happy cows
The world average age for cows is 2,5 lactations. Only the top 1% of global farmers have an average of 6 lactations. They are doing all the right things right! CowSignals® believes every farmer can go from 2,5 lactations to 5 lactations if farmers learn how to prevent diseases like lameness, mastitis and ketosis. To do that, farmers need to be able to see all the cow signals. They need to continuously keep a critical eye on animal welfare and provide cows with their basic needs.
Happy farmers
Going from 2,5 lactations to 5 is also better for the farmer. it takes 2 lactations for a cow to pay back her rearing costs. Also, the yearly milk production of older cows is significantly higher than that of younger cows. With CowSignals® farmers can improve dairy management to increase their income and have more working pleasure.
