When workloads increase and every minute counts, having the right support system makes all the difference.
SmaXtec provides round-the-clock monitoring, giving farmers valuable insights that help ensure smoother calving, healthier cows and a more efficient spring.
Early calving detection
SmaXtec’s accurate calving alerts tell farmers exactly when a cow is close to calving. This improves preparation, reduces calf losses and is especially beneficial as cows can be brought in from pasture on time.
Tipperary dairy farmer Anne Marie Ryan, milking over 140 cows, explains the benefit: “SmaXtec alerted us to cows we thought would not calve for another day or two. Thanks to the alerts, we moved them to the calving pen early. This prevented calves being born in the cubicle shed and getting hurt by the scraper.
"The calving notifications take pressure off the main calving unit during the busy times. SmaXtec also gives you a list of cows due to calve in the coming days, so plans can be put in place.”
Stronger cow health after calving
During the crucial period after calving, SmaXtec continues to support farmers by constantly tracking key health indicators such as internal body temperature, water intake, drinking cycles, rumination and activity.
This early health detection allows timely intervention and helps prevent metabolic problems such as milk fever before they become serious.
