Moocall

Product Information

in 16 countries already rely on Moocall "I simply could not praise this device enough. I was very sceptical at the start, but now I would not be without it. False trips to calving box are a thing of the past. I no longer watch the camera all night, when I get the text I can judge calving time to perfection. It is 100% accurate. All ye have to do now is develop something to calve the cow!" Moocall was founded in 2015, after its founder, Niall Austin, had his own personal issue with calving (the process of a cow giving birth). Five years earlier, when a cow of his went into labour, Austin couldn’t get to her when she started to give birth. Ultimately, the birth needed so much assistance that, without it, both the cow, and her newborn calf, tragically died. This is an optional charge and if you decide not to continue using your Moocall sensor you will not be charged. Then, let the bull into the field and do his work. All of his movement and activity with the breeding herd is recorded. 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.

We accept no responsibility for goods damaged or lost while in transit to us. How do I return a product? Dr Claire Windeyer DVSc, associate professor, production animal health, University of Calgary explained: The first was a sensor that you strap to a pregnant cows tail, the cow will then send the farmer an SMS two hours, and one hour prior to giving birth. This has proven to both free up farmers time and also increase live births and farm profitability. A dairy farmer in Co. Tipperary has developed an aid for the purpose of when calving is actually taking place.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 Both devices have many advantages, some that the other technology does not cover. By using both together, they complement each other, making for a more productive calving season. 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 After 12 months there is an annual cost of €150 (€122 + VAT), This annual fee gives you another 12 months of unlimited use and support from Moocall.

Moocall was invented when Irish farmer Niall Austin lost a calf and a cow due to an unexpected difficult calving. He believed that this could have been prevented if he had been there to assist and began looking for a solution. He did not want to use an invasive device and believed tail movement could help anticipate calving. Moocall removes the need for farmers to keep vigil over pregnant cows and helps increase live births and farm profitability. The device, which can be moved simply from cow to cow once calving takes place, uses 3D motion sensors, algorithms, and an embedded SIM card that connects to the phone network. job #jobopportunity #Moocall #MoocallTeam #salestechnician #servicetechnician #farmer #farming #IrishFarmerCentre In this article, we look at the available technologies that could make the 2023 calving season that bit easier. 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."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. We use our MooCall Calving Sensor extensively on springing dairy heifers as they approach or go past their projected calving date.

About 17-18% of heifers will have complications on their first calving and even cows more experienced at giving birth will struggle 7-8% of the time. Almost 3% of all calves die during birth. This number can be drastically reduced by being present at time of calving. Moocall makes sure you are there when you are most needed & more live births directly impact your operations bottom line. Want to join a dynamic team? Want to work from a farming hub in Dublin? Then this is the perfect opportunity for you. 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.

See how else we’re supporting in our clip below: 👇👀 Within the first two months of use, five heifers that wore the sensor needed our assistance to safely deliver their calves. 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.

The early detection provided by the sensor allowed us to respond in a prompt, timely manner, ultimately resulting in five live births and no lingering post-partum issues for the heifers.The Moocall calving sensor monitors your pregnant cow so that you can get on with running your farm. Don’t worry, when she needs you, we’ll let you know. Ultimately, Moocall saved the calf and potentially our Highland cow named Fergie. Moocall is a valuable asset for us and will be used on all our Highlands." Jill Ramsay 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. Before using the Moocall, our expecting mothers would be routinely monitored hourly, prior to calving. Everyone in the business knows the time and devotion that takes.
