Optimum insemination time

Activity period: the basic principles• The Lactivator displays a cow’s activity in two-hourly

periods.

• The activity in one period is compared with the activity

in the same period over the preceding days.

• An attention is sent if the cow’s present activity has

increased suf� ciently or dropped signi� cantly over

several consecutive periods.

• The Lactivator sends a provisional attention if there is

a clear increase or reduction in activity but not enough

for a full attention.

Cow’s heat cycle

Optimum insemination timeYou can generally assume that when a cow is actually in

heat, the best time to inseminate her is straight after the

� rst attention. The probability of conception is at its highest

then, because the sperm cells will make contact with the

egg cell at the optimum time.

RealTime Antenna

Proposed by InterPuls, is the latest release in automatic heat detection.Ideal for the dairy farmer that aims to achieve the highest profitability in estrus detection across the herd.It represents an innovative and user friendly solution that indicates exactly when each cow is in heat!

Eating Monitoring

Changes in eating behaviour indicate that there may be something wrong with the animal and that it should be checked more closely. Eating monitoring is particularly important in the period before and after calving, when an animal is more susceptible to disease because of changes in its environment, feed, energy balance and stress. The NeckTag proposed by InterPuls monitors the time each day the animal takes in roughage.

New feature: Standing & LyingA cow shows the same pattern of behaviour and movements every day. Standing and Lying Monitoring tracks different aspects of this pattern: walking, standing and lying time, the number of times the animal stands up and the number of steps she takes per day. The system accurately tracks the cow 24/7 and issues alerts if there are any changes from the average of the past few days.

Cow Positioning registers the position and the movements of each individual animal in the herd. At the base of the system are the beacons that, mounted in various places within the barn transmit a unique low frequency signal. The NeckTag receives signals from beacons, the identification of the animal’s position. The system will show the position of each animal on a digital map of the barn; finding animals that, for example, need individual care or that, in a robot farm, hasn’t been milked; allowing precise actions on the single cow

Detailed information can be displayed with a simple PC, Tablet or Smart Phone through Internet. Farmer, Veterinary or Genetic Consultant are updated about heat, drop of activity, eating time and standing & lying activity. The system reminds to the operators the events scheduled in calendar. The new Cow Positioning (available for NeckTag only) shows the position of each animal on a digital map of the barn. It permits to find animals that, for example, need individual care or that, in a robot farm, hasn’t been milked; allowing precise actions on every single cow.

The software displays all the details on a user friendly chart. The early detection of decreased activity permits to intervene on subclinical illness that can compromise the lactation and the health of the cow.

In a 100 cows herd is sufficient start with 30 Pedometers or NeckTags.The Stand Alone system could be upgraded with feeding (up to 16 feed stations), cow traffic and complete Dairy Management with the ICAR approved Milk Meter iMilk700.
