Livestock NEW MOOMONITOR + APP WINS BEST NEW PRODUCT INNOVATION AWARD AT UK DAIRY DAY »»THE LATEST APP FROM Dairymaster - the MooMonitor+ is the newest stage in the evolution of Dairymaster’s ground-breaking MooMonitor+ health and fertility monitoring system. This cutting edge technology was voted at UK Dairy Day in Telford as the Best New Product Innovation Award. This App works in tandem with the MooMonitor+ collar, and no matter how big the farmer’s herd is, this App has the power to identify animals that need their attention, anytime, anywhere. The visual picture of their herd allows them to easily identify cows when they are in heat, ill or simply not thriving. Fergus O’ Meara, International Business Development Manager comments: “We are delighted to have won such a prestigious award today for the MooMonitor+ App. It is a powerful tool to help farmers make the right decision at the right time, which is getting more and more important as herd sizes increase.” ‘a powerful tool to help farmers make the right decision at the right time’ The dashboard of the twoway App gives a very visual, easy to read update of what is currently going on with the herd and what needs to be done. It classifies the animals and allows farmers to manage each individual cow’s health and fertility easily. One of the advanced features of the App is that it provides farmers with Live Behaviour Graphs mapping multiple kinds of behaviour relative to other cows within the group. The MooMonitor+ App can be used to assess each cow or the number of animals affected together and for how long. When the system detects sick cows it will send an immediate notification direct to the farmer’s mobile allowing them to intervene sooner. Veterinarians or AI technicians can have access to farms and can even monitor several farms on their mobile. Fat Cattle Scales One of the other remarkable things about this App, is information is re-computing every 15 minutes, ensuring the farmer has up the minute information about the herd. The data is eight times more granular than most systems on the market and contains more measurements of animal behaviour than other systems. This advanced App is designed for both Apple and android phones. Much like Facebook, the easy-to-use MooMonitor+ App software is cloud based and is accessible from anywhere in the world on an unlimited number of devices and platforms across multiple languages which is connected to the internet via a secure login.
