FutureCow Comfort Brush

Overview

FutureCow's Comfort Brush goes beyond simple grooming by incorporating usage monitoring technology. This allows farms to track which cows are using the brush and how often, providing data for welfare assessment.

The brush itself features durable construction and effective grooming action. The monitoring capabilities integrate with other farm management systems to provide a complete picture of cow comfort behavior.

For farms pursuing welfare certifications or simply wanting to understand cow behavior better, the data capabilities add significant value beyond the basic grooming function.
