@1noeloconnor @AFBI_NI @AgriSearchNI Hard to say for definite but possibly in the next 12-18 mths. Will depend on results from ongoing animal welfare trials and how quickly manufacturers can scale up. Cost might be a drawback at the moment too

@conor_holohan @AFBI_NI @AgriSearchNI Thanks, I was wondering about that alright. It would be very handy for us to move a fence from the yard rather than have to go into the field.
Is it far from general availability would you know?

@1noeloconnor @AFBI_NI @AgriSearchNI They'll get an electric pulse. Concept is based on associative learning i.e. animal turns/stops when it hears audio cue

@conor_holohan @AFBI_NI @AgriSearchNI What happens if the cows ignore the audio warning and try to move into to the next area?

First virtual fencing study in the US underway @UWMadisonCALS. Part of our ongoing VF research program @AFBI_NI testing the scope of this new tech and most importantly how it effects animal behaviour/welfare. New collaboration made possible thanks to @Fulbright_Eire 🐄🌱
