    Had an amazing time with my colleague Benjamin Legge at the SVG Ventures | THRIVE Global Impact Summit in California! Huge thank you to John Cassidy for inviting our team at Ag Capital Canada. My personal favourite was the panel on Dairy's Vital Role in Methane Mitigation. We heard from industry leaders Matt Budine, Cameron Wallace, Kyle McKinney, Frank Mitloehner and Matthew Cleveland. Throughout the conversation there was one common theme - efficiency. Dairy farmers need the tools and technology to boost productivity, profitability, and in turn, reduce their impact on the environment. At SomaDetect and Ag Capital Canada we are proud to be driving efficiency on dairy farms across North America.

  • 📊 Milk Quality Revolution with SomaSENTINEL 📊 Take a look at this impressive data from a 2,000-head commercial dairy farm in Northern Colorado. Thanks to SomaSENTINEL, the farm achieved a remarkable reduction in somatic cell counts (SCC), directly improving milk quality and udder health. 🐄✨ Before SomaSENTINEL, SCC levels were on the rise, but once our real-time sensor technology was implemented, you can see the drastic drop and consistent management of SCC. 💪 Our smart system identifies at-risk cows and provides actionable insights, helping farmers make timely decisions to enhance herd health and boost productivity. This is just another example of how our innovative tech is changing the game for dairy farms! 🧠🔍 Interested in learning how SomaSENTINEL can help your operation thrive?

  • 📢 New Research Highlight: Using SomaDetect’s Milk Sensor Technology for Selective Dry Cow Therapy (SDCT) 🐄💡 We’re thrilled to share the findings of a groundbreaking study led by Dr. Roger Saltman, a respected veterinary consultant. The research showcases how SomaDetect’s Light Scattering Sensor (LSS) technology is transforming Selective Dry Cow Therapy by allowing dairy farmers to make more precise, data-driven decisions. Using real-time data and AI-powered algorithms, SomaDetect helps identify which cows need antibiotics at dry-off and which cows can be dried off without needing antibiotic treatment. This leads to improved herd health and significant cost savings. In this study, SomaDetect reduced antibiotic use by $18.23 per untreated cow—without impacting milk production or udder health in the next lactation! This study was presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Dairy Science Assn. and at the Annual Meeting of the American Assn. of Bovine Practitioners. 📊💪 Check out the full abstract to see how SomaDetect is revolutionizing dairy farming, improving efficiency, and promoting healthier herds.
