A global leader in animal intelligence and monitoring, producing SenseHub collars and ear tags that track reproduction, health, and nutrition.
Developers of an ingestible rumen bolus that measures inner body temperature, activity, and drinking behavior to predict diseases like mastitis.
Israel · Company
Develops advanced dairy farm management software and sensors that integrate with milking robots to monitor milk quality.
Creates solar-powered GPS collars that enable virtual fencing (herding cows via sound/vibration) alongside health monitoring.
Dutch technology firm developing SmartTag neck and leg sensors for heat detection, health monitoring, and cow positioning.
Produces direct-to-satellite smart ear tags for livestock, eliminating the need for local tower infrastructure.
Global supplier of high-performance RFID identification and monitoring solutions, including the Tru-Test brand.
Developers of the CowAlert system, utilizing rear-leg sensors to monitor lying time and mobility to detect lameness early.
Provides GPS collars and an app for locating and monitoring livestock in extensive farming systems across Europe.
Develops the 'DoggTag', a Bluetooth-enabled ear tag and reader system designed for grazing cattle and bison.
Livestock monitoring wearables—collars, ear tags, or rumen boluses—capture accelerometer, gyroscope, temperature, heart rate, and acoustic data, running edge ML to spot estrus events, rumination changes, lameness, or heat stress hours before clinical symptoms appear. Devices sync via LoRa or private 5G to herd management dashboards that trigger insemination alerts, ration adjustments, or veterinary interventions.
Dairy cooperatives, feedlot operators, and emerging-market pastoralists use these wearables to improve conception rates, reduce methane intensity per liter of milk, and unlock livestock-backed financing. Companies such as Allflex, Cowlar, and Moocall integrate vitals with herd ERP systems, providing traceability data that retailers now demand for animal welfare reporting.
Future wearables will pair with precision feeding robots and automated milking parlors to close feedback loops between animal health and production. Challenges remain in battery longevity, ensuring tags stay attached in rough terrain, and convincing smallholders that subscription models yield ROI. Government incentives for disease surveillance and carbon accounting will likely accelerate mainstream adoption.
