The permanent, highly precise measurement of the inner body temperature (± 0.01°C) enables you to react as early as possible to approaching problems caused by feeding.

smaXtec has developed a globally unique technology that makes it possible for the first time to measure the amount of water consumed by each individual cow. With TruDrinking, smaXtec customers benefit from another valuable early indicator for milk production, can treat sick cows even faster and optimise the water supply.

smaXtec farmers work with the most advanced technology. New and practical functions are constantly being added to improve the profitability and sustainability of dairy farming – such as the recent feeding tool, categorisation of diseases according to severity and abort detection. Of course, the updates are provided to all customers without any hidden costs.

A change in body temperature is the first sign of the most common production diseases in dairy cows and is therefore considered the gold standard for reliable early detection. Continuous temperature monitoring with smaXtec allows you to detect diseases even before rumination decreases or external signs are visible.

In the previous article on mastitis, we took a closer look at causes, symptoms and diagnosis of the disease. This time, we will focus on the impacts on operating efficiency. We then go on to explain how smaXtec helps you detect and treat mastitis at an early stage.

Changing farm structures with more cows and fewer employees, rising cost pressure and heavy bureaucratisation are reasons why increasing workload in farming is a serious issue. Digitalisation and technological tools have been helping farmers here for several years, including the smaXtec system.

Feeding in modern dairy farming is very challenging. Farmers have to put a lot of effort into it – feeding plans, formulation of ration and feed quality. However, often not enough focus is put on the water intake, even though it plays a vital role in milk production, control and regulation of body temperature and many other body functions of cows.

Stay ahead of health issues with the smaXtec system — the only solution that monitors internal body temperature, rumination, activity, and drinking behavior directly from inside the cow. Detect diseases up to four days before symptoms appear, reduce antibiotic use by up to 70%, and boost your herd’s health and productivity.
