See how else we’re supporting in our clip below: 👇👀 Created by Irish farmer Niall Austin, with help from Irish technology partners Motech Engineering and Dolmen, Moocall launched commercially in Ireland in January 2015 after four years of product development and prototyping. Moocall has been the winner of numerous design awards, including the Red Dot award. Moocall was nominated for London’s Design Museum Design of the Year award in 2015. To date, Moocall has sold devices to over 2,500 farms across sixteen countries. An estimated 25,000 calves have already been born using Moocall. Moocall is an IoT technology, powered by Vodafone IoT The sensor will send you an SMS message up to 2 hours before your cow starts to calve so you can be there for her.

Once you activate the device you will receive 12 months of service,support , text messages and unlimited use.The Moocall alerted us and we were there due to the Moocall message. We ended up needing to use the chain and pull her calf. On the contrary, while the Moocall is a trending calving sensor device, other calving assistance technologies can assist with safe calving or lambing. Using a camera Moocall monitors your pregnant cow so that you can get on with running your farm. The Moocall calving sensor monitors the contractions to accurately determine when the cow is most likely to calf.

Our sensor has paid for itself several times over and continues to be an important management tool on our farm." Will Gilmer We discuss technologies in this article such as the famous Moocall, calving cameras, as well as Jim Ryan’s latest calving equipment.

A text message is then sent to the designated phone number the farmer assigns to allow you to be present during calving. The Moocallis a non-invasive sensor that will monitor a pregnant cow and notify you by a text message to yourmobile phone when the animal is close to calving. The Moocallworks by attaching to the cow's tail and gathering over 600 pieces of information per second, by monitoring tail movement and other indications Moocallcan accurately predict thetime of birth an hour beforehand . Once the Moocallpredicts the time of birth a text message is sent to the owners mobile phone giving them enough time to be present for the birth of the calf. Benefits of the Moocall

About an hour before calving, the sensor sends an alert to your smartphone, giving you enough time to be there for the birth. Dr Claire Windeyer DVSc, associate professor, production animal health, University of Calgary explained: Whether it’s artificial intelligence or a simple piece of equipment, there are several innovations that can help cut losses and make calving season easier. This is an optional charge and if you decide not to continue using your Moocall sensor you will not be charged. Saves on time and fuel by only travelling to the yard should an animal require assistance during birth.

Then, take a clean hand and remove any fluid that might be in the calf’s mouth. We do not want anything in there that is going to be in the way of that calf bringing air into the lungs.” Using technologies together Therefore, it is important to know what you are getting before you rule out buying the second technology. When it comes to their heat sensor product, the benefit is less about a lifestyle change, and more about the enormity of time saved. “Rather than having to go out and look for physical signs of mating behaviour, farmers don’t have to do any of that – it’s all automated,” Neil said. “It was quite laborious, quite a labour intensive process before.”

We are waiting for you at Jim Parkinson's farm, in Tipperary today at 12pm. Come join us for a chat! Moocall is a calving sensor worn on a cow’s tail that measures over six hundred data points every second to determine the onset of calving. The device then sends a text alert to two mobile phones roughly an hour before calving, to ensure that the cattle breeder can be on location when a calf is born. Moocall, an #agritech partner of Vodafone, had its Calving Sensor #IoT solution, which monitors pregnant cows, featured in the latest series of Jeremy Clarkson's documentary, Clarkson’s Farm. If you want to know when a calf is on the way, and want to be there, and want some more rest and sleep, you should really get one of these." With calving and lambing usually taking place on most farms from January until mid-April, it can be difficult to source labour to manage workload evenly across the farm unit.In comparison, the Moocall will send an alert only if contractions are occurring. This alert is raised approximately two hours and one hour before calving commences.
