CowManager is marking its 10th anniversary of helping U.S. dairy producers improve cow management with its unique ear sensors that measure ear temperature combined with behavior, resulting in accurate and early alerts related to health, fertility, transition and nutrition. The company hosted a special celebration during World Dairy Expo on Thursday, October 3.

CowManager was founded in 2004 in the Netherlands by Gerard Griffioen. In 2014, CowManager and Select Sires formed a partnership to distribute the ear sensors to U.S. producers.

In 2022, CowManager, Select Sires and Zoetis announced a strategic collaboration, integrating genomic tools and predictive sensor systems. This three-way collaboration combines industry-leading support and expertise with on-farm analytics and increased reliability in genetic selection.

Today, CowManager has revolutionized the world of cow monitoring systems with ongoing groundbreaking innovations backed by years of university research and on-farm trials. Thousands of farmers across the globe use CowManager to gain 24/7 control over their herd with real-time information. Producers can catch sick cows days before they show clinical signs, never miss a heat, identify at-risk cows in the dry period — and make fact-based decisions to improve overall herd health, performance and profits.
