BOVICOM
Bovicom BV is a big-data integrator specialized in dairy production. This start-up company is positioned on the cross-roads of veterinary expertise in dairy and frontline ICT knowledge. The ICT expertise is supported by a team of some 20 dynamic programmers and big-data specialists. In view of the unique set of skills & competencies, Bovicom manages to bring digital data together from various onand off-farm data sources in a meaningful manner. Rather than having to consult various screens, programs, reports and files, a dairy producer will now get all relevant data real-time in one view, thus allowing fact-based decision making, no matter where the farm data are located. This requires a blend of frontline ICT technologies across a multitude of farming equipment (milking equipment, milking robots, automatic feeders, mixer wagons, …) as well as farming software (herd management software, data warehouse software, dairy dashboards, cow sensors programs…) combined with an in-depth understanding of farming technologies and husbandry practices including dairy nutrition, reproduction and milk production. Bovicom is located in Puurs, Belgium where it also has a research farm that allows on-farm testing and validation of novel technologies and applications.
