The Silent Herdsman decision support platform is all about your time, your money, and your productivity. The platform combines proven, leading edge sensory, prediction, and communications technologies that significantly automate your herd management operation – even in the largest dairy farm operations.
In the margin-pressured business of dairy farming, Silent Herdsman significantly reduces the time that you need to allocate to critical herd management tasks such as heat detection, freeing you up to concentrate on other essential tasks. The Silent Herdsman Heat Detection application is able to predict heat detection, with industry leading accuracy, and time stamp the instance that the cow enters heat twenty four hours a day.
Your payback on your investment in Silent Herdsman occurs within the first year per cow in your herd – while boosting the conception rate of your cows. A missed heat cycle equates to twenty one days of lost milk for that cow. In addition to the lost milk costs, by significantly boosting the timing accuracy of heat detection in the cow, Silent Herdsman simultaneously reduces related costs resulting from your use of semen and veterinary services per cow per year.
Silent Herdsman maximizes the productivity of your herd. The significant increase in the accuracy of heat prediction coupled with the reduction in costs from a more judicious use of semen as well as the possible elimination of multiple applications of reproductive hormones and the accompanying veterinary services significant boosts your farm’s productivity – as well as each cow’s productivity – while significantly reducing your associated reproductive costs per cow. This is a mandatory strategy for your farm in today’s highly competitive, cost-pressured dairy industry.
"I now have more time to multi-task on the farm knowing that Silent Herdsman is detecting heat electronically across our modern Holstein herd particularly at night while I am sleeping!"
