"It's all about convenience, you enjoy it more when you don't have to run back and forth while maintaining the electric fence. I fixed everything to a tee in no time."
Marek Vels

In Beskydy Mountains you will find a nice family farm where they breed Scottish Highland cattle and heather sheep. The electric fences in which they keep their animals are located near the remote village of Nýdek, then in Morávka near their parents and in Dobratice they have their Highland bulls literally behind their house. They have a perfect overview of the operation of the electric fences thanks to the Smart Farm system with the fencee Cloud app, with which they have been conveniently operating and controlling all the electric fences in the remote meadows and pastures for two years.

The extensive pastures that stretch across the rolling hillsides have long been a challenge for effective animal security. However, after implementing the Smart Farm fencee Cloud system, farm operations have changed dramatically - not only has electric fence management been simplified, but also costs have been saved and animal safety has been significantly improved.

Challenges before the introduction of smart electric fencing

  • Large pastures: The farm manages more than 20 hectares of pasture on a large site with rugged terrain, which made it difficult to control the electric fences. The individual electric fences are up to 25 km apart.
  • Time- and energy-consuming maintenance: Checking and maintaining the electric fences took several hours a day and consumed a lot of energy, time and fuel each time.
  • Risk of breakdown and safety: Loss of voltage in the electric fence meant the risk of Highland bulls escaping or predators entering the sheep flock, which in the past has cost farmers several sheep.

Solution: Implementation of the Smart electric fence 

The farm decided to invest in the Smart Farm fencee Cloud system, which combines Smart energizers with remote control and online monitoring for electric fences.

The Smart electric fencing system includes:

Benefits of the Smart Farm fencee Cloud

The introduction of the Smart Farm fencee Cloud system has brought about a major change - fence management has become easier, costs have been reduced and animal safety has increased significantly.

1.Time-saving and increasing efficiency

Once the system is installed, owners can control and monitor all electric fences on their mobile phone or with a remote controller. Any voltage losses or faults are immediately reported by warning notification.

"The remote controller is just awesome. We have one fence right behind our house, so it's basically a daily thing and I still haven't gotten tired of it."

Marek Velš

2. Immediate response to problems

Not only does the app provide instant notification, but it also allows you to remotely turn the electric fence off and on. With up-to-date information on your mobile phone, you can react quickly and minimize risks. Warning Alert on a faulty electric fence - video

3. Increase animal safety

Thanks to online monitoring and advanced microprocessor technology, the voltage in the electric fence stays at an optimal level. This protects animals from escaping while ensuring predators do not threaten breeding sheep and calves.

"I monitor voltage, power and load on the mobile app. I'm happy to have a clear overview that everything is working as it should at Morávka. It saves nerves, a lot!"

Marek Velš

4. Cost savings

The remote management capability eliminates the need for physical inspections of the pens, saving time, fuel and reducing operating costs. Thanks to the simple controls, the farmer can manage the fences himself without the need for additional manpower.

5. Easy maintenance and long lifetime

The smart fencee energizer is designed for minimal maintenance and high weather resistance. The combination of 12/230V and solar power allows operation even in very remote pastures.

6. Customisation to different needs

The system makes it easy to add additional smart energizers fencee and monitoring devices and expand coverage as the farm's needs grow over time. For specific parts of the pasture where there are only cattle, for example, the voltage intensity can be adjusted to match the requirements of each species.

"For cows, I usually switch the energizer power to 50%, depending on the current electric fence condition."
