eCow - Vetpack for Cow Nutritional Management System
When a herd of cows has a nutritional problem, it is hard to see what it is. SARA is a common diagnosis but where is the evidence? Very often the diet formulation looks OK but as we know, silage varies through the clamp, people don’t put the right ingredients in or they have a disorderly routine. The rumen bolus tells you what is really happening. A Vetpack gives you all you need to monitor a herd for 3 months by which time you will have identified and fixed the problem. We also sell both our Vetpack and Farmpack through the Farmacy marketplace.

Benefits
Not only does the Farmbolus give you the data you need to diagnose SARA, It can also benefit with the following:
- Identifies issues in the managment of the cows feeding.
- Improved use of supplements.
- Monitoring drinking behaviour and heat stress.
- Elimination of mycotoxin diagnosis.
- A dedicated smartphone with download antenna.
- 3 Boluses.
- Subscription to “Hathor”, a dedicated online data-viewer to allow comparisons between farms.
- All software and hardware support.
When you suspect a nutritional management problem, put an eBolus in 3% of the problem group (usually early lactation cows). Choose cows giving average yields in the group (avoid the “best” or sick cows that the herdsman worries about). Record the cow ID’s on the smartphone so to associate the bolus ID with the cow ID. the bolus goes down the throat using a standard bolus gun. After a few minutes, it migrates to the reticulum where it stays to continuously monitor pH and temperature.
