It is only when one starts to think of all the different applications that the real practical value of the Livestock Counting System is appreciated.

The following are only a few of the advantages;

  • Accurate reporting of livestock numbers that went to drink water;
  • Reporting on request at any given time of day;
  • Peace of mind to know all cattle are counted for;
  • It is now possible to reside on one farm and still be informed about livestock numbers on another farm- regardless of the distance from the primary farm;
  • It is now possible to be informed of livestock numbers even from neighbouring countries;
  • Stay updated on dam and trough water levels at all times.
  • Receive a warning if the flowrate of incoming water into a trough is insufficient,
  • Receive information about livestock in the wrong camp.
  • Part time farmers (or professionals) who does not visit the farm often, receive daily update about animal numbers and water levels.
  • Readers can be installed at specific entry/exit points for the purpose of security – in the case of any livestock movement detected will the owner immediately be informed of possible theft.

Additional services:

Water levels: dams and troughs:

Monitoring water levels of all reservoirs and troughs is now a reality.  Even the flow rate of incoming water can now be measured and monitored. This functionality can be obtained as (a) part of the Livestock Counting System, or (b) a separate independent freestanding unit.

 

  • Reporting from these systems is received via SMS.
  • A status update can be requested via SMS during any time of day.
  • Receive a warning on low flow levels – that can indicate a leaking pipe, a blockage in the supply pipe etc.
