Throughout the pregnancy testing months, keeping cows cycling regularly is key to achieving compact calving and maintaining herd performance. Low or irregular cycling can reduce submission rates, extend calving intervals, and make it harder to plan calving patterns, which can affect milk production and overall herd profitability.

Nedap SmartTag neck collars help you monitor activity patterns and heat behaviour 24/7, while alerts through the Nedap Now app highlight cows that are cycling and those that may require attention. This allows you to take timely action to improve fertility, manage non-cycling cows, and optimise reproductive performance across your herd.

The result is higher cycling and submission rates, more timely pregnancies, more uniform calving, and stronger overall herd productivity.

Talk to your local representative to see how Nedap cow monitoring technology can help you track and manage cycling rates in your herd.

Labour shortages are a real challenge for many Australian dairy farms. With a tight workforce and high labour costs eating into margins, finding skilled staff and keeping daily tasks under control can be tough – and industry surveys show worker shortages are one of the top concerns for dairy farmers.

That’s where automation and monitoring tech make a difference. Nedap cow monitoring technology streamlines day‑to‑day herd management by tracking heat, health and behaviour 24/7, so you get early alerts and clear insights without needing extra pairs of hands. Accurate heat and health alerts help you focus labour where it matters most, reduce time spent on routine checks, and free you up to tackle higher‑value tasks.

By reducing time‑intensive manual work and helping you stay on top of key herd decisions, Nedap helps you run your operation more efficiently – letting you do more with less and protecting both productivity and profit margins.

Want to improve your bottom line on farm?

Nedap’s cow monitoring technology can make a real financial difference.

By tracking heat, health and behaviour 24/7, farmers get early alerts on reproduction, illness and performance trends – helping them act sooner, reduce production losses, and avoid costly setbacks. Accurate heat detection supports better conception and compact calving, while early health alerts reduce veterinary costs and limit the impact of disease on milk yield.

Australian farmers using systems powered by Nedap report that the investment often pays for itself within 2–3 years through improved fertility, labour efficiency and more milk in the tank. Scott McKillop from Dederang says the clearer insights into heat timing and cow health are “saving a lot of time” and helping him get more cows in calf.

Over at Yannathan, Evan Williams credits herd data delivered straight to his phone and computer with helping him keep close tabs on heat and behaviour without extra labour.

With better reproductive performance, fewer health issues and smarter labour use, Nedap cow monitoring technology helps you boost productivity and maximise profit margins on farm.

As pregnancy testing season kicks off, accurate heat detection has never been more important. Getting cows pregnant at the right time sets you up for compact calving, stronger seasons and better overall performance. Missed or late heats can extend calving intervals and slow herd productivity.

Nedap SmartTag neck collars provide automated heat detection by tracking activity signs such as increased movement, sniffing, chin resting and mounting around the clock. Alerts are delivered directly through the Nedap Now app, clearly showing which cows are in heat and the optimal insemination moment.

The result is fewer missed heats, better submission and pregnancy rates, and more days in milk.

As we see temperatures soar across the country, heat stress is a real risk for our herds – and increasingly, it’s part of navigating more unpredictable weather patterns. Heat stress can reduce feed intake, lower milk production and impact cow health and fertility if not managed early, with effects often compounding over consecutive hot days.

Nedap cow monitoring technology helps you spot heat stress early, providing real-time insights at herd level so you can respond quickly and make changes to keep your cows comfortable.

By turning data into timely action, Nedap helps farmers adapt to changing conditions, protect herd wellbeing and maintain performance in a more variable climate.

Chad and Jan Winke are total converts to automatic drafting.

“We would never farm without a gate anymore,” says Chad, running two dairy operations near Morrinsville in the Waikato.

With Nedap cow monitoring technology, every cow with an alert is drafted automatically during milking. Urgent cows are flagged immediately for assessment, and the rest are sorted seamlessly into mobs or feeding groups, all without staff manually making drafting decisions.

The result? Easier workflow for the team, more accurate feeding, healthier cows, and less stress during milking.
