DeLaval activity meter system

 

What is this?

 

Keep control of your breeding

Features

DeLaval activity meter system is designed to give the highest hit rate for finding cows in heat, together with excellent cow comfort and 24 hour surveillance.

Finding a heat is not just the basis for all dairy operations – it is also time consuming and costly. DeLaval activity meter system is proven to generate an unsurpassable 95 percent heat hit rate. This leads to lower breeding costs due to reduced days open and fewer services per conception. It also increases conceptions on animals with silent heats.

DeLaval activity meter system consists of:

- Neck mounted activity tags which register the cows movement pattern and forward the information on a hourly basis.

- Antenna installation which receives the tags information for further processing.

- An ALPRO™ processor delivering breeding attentions lists for your convenience at any time of the day.

 

Advantages

These long-life tags work on any type of farm and any breed of cow 24/7. The entire system will work on cows or heifers and you can receive data well before the cow passes the milking area. Our system focuses on precision for accurate decisions on insemination time. Placement around the neck results in best cow comfort compared to any tag placed around the cow’s leg.
