Description:
An RFID monitoring system featuring an early warning system to manage the health and well-being of feedlot cattle. The system reliably alerts livestock owners to indicators of illness up to seven days before visible symptoms of illness can be seen. Monitoring animals 24/7, the system provides traceability for all time on lot activity, matching animal history from the moment it is tagged onsite, until the animal is sold. Affordability and easy installation makes it viable to add to any feedlot. It improves traceability and profitability while providing enhanced care for livestock.
