Talking virtual fencing in dairy with Halter

In this episode we’re talking about virtual fencing and monitoring technology that could be transformative for the dairy industry. 

We’re joined by Dairy Australia’s Emily Samyue to give us an overview of the role agtech plays within the industry.  

We then travel across the ditch to speak to Steve Crowhurst from New Zealand-based company Halter. Halter’s smart cow collars predominantly use sound cues to guide cattle on where to go, allowing cows to be remotely brought in for milking and cell grazed in smaller mobs to improve pasture growth and production. 

We also talk to Tasmanian dairy farmer Troy Ainslie who has been using the Halter technology to virtually herd and fence cattle and monitor pasture and animal health. He says he now doesn’t think he’d be dairy farming without it.
