CowManager introduces Youngstock Monitor at Canadian Dairy XPO

CowManager, a global leader in cow monitoring systems, is excited to announce its participation in the 2025 Canadian Dairy XPO and the launch of Youngstock Monitor to producers in Canada. Youngstock Monitor is a new comprehensive solution to monitor calf behavior, providing real-time health alerts for early disease detection.

This award-winning innovation helps producers facilitate quicker interventions, lower treatment intensity, reduce reliance on antibiotics and decrease mortality rates — setting a strong foundation for future herd performance.

Powered by artificial intelligence with ever-evolving algorithms, Youngstock Monitor adapts to each operation and the behavioral development of each calf, allowing producers to make farm-specific predictions on the health of their individual calves and focus treatment in a targeted way. With Youngstock Monitor and the new lightweight CowManager ear sensor, producers need just one sensor per animal for its entire lifetime, from calf to cow.

“We’re proud to bring a solution that supports producers in raising healthier, more resilient youngstock,” said Gerard Griffioen, founder of CowManager. “Healthy calves lead to healthy cows. With Youngstock Monitor, this approach helps producers maximize performance and build the foundation for a productive and healthy herd.”

At this year’s Canadian Dairy XPO, show attendees can visit CowManager in the Select Sires booth located in the

Cow Coliseum. There, they will have the opportunity to see the Youngstock Monitor in a live calf’s ear. The CowManager team will showcase how this new technology offers unmatched insights into calf health, growth and development.

In addition to the Youngstock Monitor demonstration, CowManager also will showcase its newly enhanced CowManager App. Visitors can explore the user-friendly interface via an oversized, interactive touchscreen display.
