Behavior-Tracking Cow Collars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Lely's Robotic Milking System Tracks Internal and External Behavior

— August 19, 2020 — Tech
Cow collars that track vitality are becoming increasingly important to the farming industry and solutions like Dutch company Lely's robotic milking system stand out in this space. The wearable tech helps farmers track the internal and external behavior of their livestock, the animal's temperature, activity levels, and so on. One of the most important benefits of a high-tech cow collar, for example, can be the prediction of illnesses, allowing for farmers to take action before things get out of hand. As a result, the device offers the opportunity of "decreasing the amount of staffing needed and speeding up the milking process."

Lely's cow collars allow for farmers to make the connection between the animal's behavior and its wellbeing and health. While previously this involved much uncertainty and guesswork, the Digital Age surely introduced a greater level of precision in this matter.
