ZOLLIKOFEN, Switzerland — When Christian Oesch was a boy on his family’s hog farm, cellphones were a thing of the future. Now, Mr. Oesch tends a herd of dairy cattle and carries a smartphone wherever he goes. Occasionally he gets an SMS from one of his cows.

Well, a bull would but the farmer who uses AI to inseminate his cows might need a little help.
And, while I don't know a lot about cows, I do know that it's not always easy to catch a goat at just the right time, and unless you run your buck (or bull) with the girls all the time, you have to rely on your own abilities to tell who's "ready."
