THE FUTURE IS IN THE EAR
We only want the best. For you and for your herd. Our unique cow monitoring service measures ear temperature combined with behaviour. Giving you actionable insights about the health, fertility and nutrition of your herd, so you know exactly which cows to focus on – and why.
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, on pastures or in feedlots.
- 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.
MODULES & EXTRA FUNCTIONALITIES
MULTIVIEW
Give your staff, veterinarian, nutritionist, and other advisors access to selected cow data.
AUTO DRAFTING
Automatically separate cows with heat or health alerts from the rest of the herd with our Auto Drafting functionality.
FERTILITY
Increase profit with timely insemination. Identify peak heats, non-cycling cows, pregnant cows, and even potential abortions. Know exactly when a cow is in heat and when to breed.
HEALTH
Is your cow not eating, not ruminating, had a change in behavior or a drop in temperature? Get an alert 1 to 2 days before any signs of clinical illness. Or, if your cow is already sick, monitor recovery in detail.
NUTRITION

CATCH DISEASES EARLY, REDUCE SICK COWS
Get alerted immediately when a cows isn't ruminating or eating, and intervene proactively. Pick up on diseases like mastitis and ketosis in an early stage.
MONITOR TRANSITION, REDUCE RISK
75% of all adult cow disease events find their origin in the transition period. CowManager is the only system to provide accurate transition alerts.
"Our old system was collars. Collars tend to get stuck in things such as feed barriers and water troughs. The tags are just a neater, tidier job and they are extremely robust. In the 7 years I have actually yet to see a tag break! Changing the tag from cow to cow is very simple. The linking and the delinking can all be done through the mobile app."

FARMER STORIES
John Rowe
'We wanted a monitoring system that would work on a grass-based system and be both reliable and accurate and that’s what we got with CowManager. When it comes to such a big investment on the farm we sit down as a family, and we look at it as a whole. If it can save you time, save you money and make you money, you have to invest in it – CowManager does all three. That’s how good the system is, it is lifechanging'
Brian Galvin
'Before we put in CowManager we were doing our heat detection with tail paint or teaser bulls. They show you the cows in heat, but they don't tell you what exact time frame to AI that cow. Obviously, the sexed semen is more of an expensive straw. You need to be getting into that window properly to have full effectiveness of that AI straw. CowManager really hit the nail on the head for us, It's unbelievable how accurate it is.'
Shane Corbally
'CowManager has paid for itself in the first year. I worked out that it’s saved us 300hrs/year on heat detection alone – so its been a great labour-saving investment! The heat detection is extremely accurate, we don’t have as many tricky cows to AI, as they are being inseminated at the optimum time. Health alerts have allowed early intervention with a non-antibiotic treatment such as a rumen stimulant to get an ‘off form’ cow back to full health. We wouldn’t be without CowManager!'
