Discover how modern farmers track their livestock, straight from their smartphones, courtesy of the Worcestershire farmer who has been known to monitor the health of his cattle, from a sun-kissed Greek beach! Tom Goodwin, based at Earl’s Croome near Upton-upon-Severn, shows Elliott Webb around his cow shed, including the automated feeder and cleaner affectionately named after an Oscar-winning actress. He explains how tags in the ears of cattle enable to track their physical health, much like personal human fitness devices.
