  2. THE 6 SECOND RELATIONSHIP COWS Take a herd of 300 cows. Say we spend 30 minutes in a day consciously monitoring the health and fertility of the herd … 30 minutes. 300 cows. That’s 6 seconds per cow on average. That’s 42 seconds a week, 2,190 seconds or 36.5 minutes a year with each cow. Advanced performance monitoring in livestock - new sensors & the connected farm
