Does it need to see them all of the time?

A lot of systems are constantly recording data and then it will download once in range. Download speeds these days are fairly quick so given half a chance you should have a list of the cows needing attention before you're back in the yard and hit the start button.

We used RMS this year but all cows have to be in the yard waiting for them. Which means they are not eating grass. It also slowed up cow flow. One of these systems would help with that. Do they work on grazing systems?

We're spring calving and purchased moo monitor, works with farmwizard and made us only use bulls for 10 days with cows and next year unlikely to use them at all.
