Silver medal to Vocal-Tag Technology at EuroTier 2006 innovation Qwes-HR - cow identification system with ruminant surveillance and oestrus monitoring
Recording the individual rumination activity makes it possible to identify animals at risk of acidosis and ketosis at an early stage and thus facilitates the reduction of metabolic disturbances.
The Qwes-HR system from Lely supplements electronic herd management with a new element for recording rumination activity.
A device secured on a necklace in the cow's neck area records the ruminating noise and transmits the data regularly to the PC.
The software evaluates the data regularly and presents them graphically.
This automatic monitoring of rumination activity substantially facilitates herd monitoring, especially on farms with large numbers of animals.
It allows important conclusions to be drawn on the ruminant suitability of the ration.
