Virtual fencing for cattle
Virtual fencingfor cattle in Belgium.
Solar-charged GPS neckbands and an audio-first welfare protocol, on one platform. Built by Gallagher, in livestock since 1938.
In Belgium
Wallonia carries the majority of Belgium's suckler herd, largely Blanc-Bleu Belge run as cow-calf holdings across the Condroz, the Famenne and the Ardennes, while the Flemish herd is predominantly dairy. Holdings are small and parcels are scattered, often over rented ground. eShepherd suits that geometry: grazing cells you redraw from the phone, on land where a fence line costs more than the move is worth.
Why eShepherd
Why eShepherd works in Belgium
- Walloon cow-calf holdings are small and split across parcels. Move cattle between blocks by redrawing a boundary rather than walking out reels and posts every time.
- Keep calving groups, cows and weaned stock separated on the same field without putting up and taking down a physical division for each batch.
- Ardennes ground is broken by wood, stream and slope. Fence the grazing you want and leave the awkward corners out, without cutting a line through them.
- Own the neckbands outright with a small monthly connectivity charge, no per-head lease. The quote builder prices it against your own herd.
- Gallagher has an in-market team in Belgium and a European base in Groningen, backed by 88 years building livestock fencing, weighing and EID.
Pricing
What does eShepherd cost in Belgium?
Cost depends on your herd size, your connectivity setup and your terrain, so rather than a one-size price we build you an exact figure, free and no-obligation. You own the neckbands outright (no per-head lease), with a small monthly connectivity charge.
Connectivity
Carrier coverage in Belgium
eShepherd cellular roams across Proximus, Orange Belgium and BASE, and Belgium carries both LTE-M and NB-IoT, so coverage reaches close to all Walloon grazing land, including Hainaut, the Condroz and the Famenne. Signal thins in the deeper Ardennes valleys and along the wooded Semois, where a LoRa base station covers the herd instead. Most Belgian farms never need one.
Compare
How eShepherd compares
eShepherd is one of several virtual fencing systems available in Belgium. The differences that matter: solar-charged neckbands you own outright (no per-head lease), and the option to mix cellular and LoRa on one property. See how eShepherd compares →
