Real-time monitoring now possible from devices anywhere in the world with DeLaval’s wireless Farm Monitoring Camera FMC-IP1

“In an industry where cow comfort and welfare are vital to productivity, the ability to efficiently monitor the herd, from wherever the farmer happens to be, is important in maintaining a well-functioning operation,” says Eva Ramvall, Product Manager Farm Supply at DeLaval.

The Farm Monitoring Camera system has been specifically designed for ease of installation and to withstand the dirt and humidity of barns as well as outdoor weather conditions. It also provides a night vision function and sound, in addition to motion detection and a recording function. This makes it ideal for a wide range of monitoring tasks, from animal and property monitoring to checking grain driers during harvesting.
