This holiday season, over 60 URUS colleagues from Germany, Belgium, and the Netherlands came together in Feerwerd to celebrate the spirit of the season and another fantastic year. A special highlight of the evening was honoring Jordi Berend for his 12.5-year anniversary with URUS! His manager, Peter Alsemgeest, gave a heartfelt presentation celebrating Jordi's contributions and presented him with a stunning cow painting by Dutch artist Theo Onnes. The night was filled with joy, laughter, and great food served in a cozy shared dining setting. Quizmasters Michael Wenzlau and Paul de Gooijer hosted the URUS Jingle Mingle Pub Quiz! Categories like "Dairy Farming," "Know Your Cows," "Livestock Music," and "URUS Knowledge" tested everyone's wit and teamwork. Prizes were awarded to the 1st, 2nd, 5th, and 10th place teams 🏆 A big thank you to everyone who made this evening so special. Here’s to building even stronger connections and celebrating successes together in 2025! #URUSFamily #BestInBovine #GratefulTogether

Our mission is to 𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐬 by providing tailored solutions to help them make the best farm decisions. Here is a great example of how when Derrick expanded his operation, he turned to VAS DairyComp for seamless herd management and chose Alta Genetics COW WATCH, powered by Nedap Livestock, to integrate activity monitoring with precision. Together, these tools gave Derrick the power to confidently scale his farm, managing everything from breeding and health to cow-specific data—all in one place. 📱🐄 We love seeing how #collaboration within the #URUSFamily creates real value for producers around the world.
Farming for the future. ⭐ When Wilsonview Dairy expanded, owner Derrick Josi knew he needed a solution that would scale with his operation, not hold it back. With DairyComp, Derrick can access all his herd’s information – whether it's breeding data, health records or details about each individual cow – anytime, anywhere. 📱🐄 And with DairyComp’s 50+ integration partners, Derrick was able to pick the perfect activity monitoring system for his setup (shoutout to Alta Genetics COW WATCH, powered by Nedap Livestock 😉), bringing all his data together for more precise management than ever before. 🙌 Hear more about it from Derrick himself. #dairytechnology #dairyfarming #herdmanagement #dairycow #milkingcows

At URUS, we believe a healthy start is the foundation for building Better Cows for a Better World. That's why we're proud to support the impactful work of Saskatoon Colostrum Company in ensuring calves get the best care and nutrition from day one. 🐄 Through cutting-edge colostrum solutions and unwavering producer support, SCCL is helping calves thrive—paving the way for healthier, more productive cows that contribute to a sustainable food supply. #URUSFamily #HealthyStart #BetterCowsforaBetterWorld
Inadequate colostrum intake in dairy calves can have significant economic consequences, including lower milk production in the future, increased mortality rates, and higher treatment costs. These challenges not only affect calf health but can also lead to long-term financial losses for dairy operations. Ensuring calves receive adequate colostrum is key to promoting healthier animals, improving their chances of survival, and enhancing overall profitability. Maximize colostrum intake and set your calves—and your business—up for success. #SCCL #Colostrum #DairyCalves #DairyIndustry
