OUR COMMITMENT

Shearwell Data is a family, farmer owned business, based in the Exmoor National Park in the UK. The Shearwell objective is to provide livestock farming businesses with the tools to improve the method and speed of identifying cattle and sheep, increase the ability to record an animals' details for management purposes and improve the accuracy of recording details for statutory purposes.

OUR EXPERIENCE

As a farmer-owned business, Shearwell Data understands farmers' needs and challenges. All products are trialed on our own farms before going into production to ensure quality, reliability and ease of use.

RFID provides livestock farmers with an in-depth knowledge of an animal’s health and performance, whether for finishing or breeding purposes, and it is used increasingly by both pedigree and commercial sheep and cattle farmers. Data collected can identify productive and unproductive stock, assist in the selection of animals to retain for breeding and help to improve the health and welfare of livestock.
