My name is Harald Meuleman, and my passion for farm life and healthy cows is the foundation of Cowhs. What began with installing milking machines grew into an international career in dairy farming – from training dealers to launching milking robots worldwide.

Over the years, my focus shifted from technology to what truly matters: healthy animals, optimal udder health, and sustainable cow welfare. Prevention, not cure – that's what I stand for. Preventative cow health is at the heart of my work.

To truly get to the heart of what's happening in the barn, I work data-driven and practice-driven. This includes:

• dynamically measuring milking systems and milking robots
• monthly bulk milk and bedding samples at the DNA level
• structural monitoring at the herd level deepening
• at fixed measurement intervals to the animal level

This approach enables well-founded and targeted work: not isolated signals, but a complete and reliable picture. This allows dairy farmers to implement preventive measures in a practical way and make targeted improvements where they are truly needed.

At Cowhs – Smart Together, it's all about smart collaboration. With dairy farmers, veterinarians, specialists, and partners, I work on:

• improving udder health
• enhancing cow welfare
• practical, well-founded preventive care
• support for robotic milking and milking technology
• sustainable development of your dairy farm

Smart Together means: working together to build healthy cows, better results, and a future-proof dairy farm.
