The agricultural industry faces strains from a volatile market, accelerating demand to feed a growing global population and evolving health, safety, and environmental concerns. This has made keeping livestock healthy and productive a key to business continuation, success, and a sustainable future.
To address these challenges and meet emerging regulatory requirements, farmers are increasingly seeking RFID technologies capable of delivering timely insights for each and every member of their herd.
Inpixon is a company, dedicated to leveraging indoor data for positive impact. Specializing in capturing, interpreting, and visualizing indoor data, the company makes indoor spaces smarter, safer, and more secure. Industries across the spectrum, including agriculture, benefit from their solutions, enabling users to boost revenue, reduce costs, and enhance safety. With capabilities such as mapping, positioning, analytics, sensor fusion, and IoT integration, Inpixon enables customers to unveil the untold stories within indoor environments.
Inpixon’s livestock tracking technology enables farmers to correlate animal location and movement with health status. Create real-time visibility to enable 24/7 health and behaviour monitoring for cattle, sheep, and other animals on your farm.
To attain real-time visibility in Intelligent Livestock Management, farmers must equip their farms with tools capable of capturing, interpreting, and contextualizing location data. The foundational components of this tracking system include:
Deploy precise, accurate, and industry-leading real-time location systems (RTLS) that extend beyond animal tracking to cover the entire inventory and warehousing environment. This comprehensive solution ensures seamless tracking for optimal farm management.
Leverage existing technology ecosystems or utilize Inpixon's award-winning sensor technology for effective indoor positioning. This capability enables farmers and producers to discover indoor spaces, enhancing overall location awareness.
Integrate precise indoor positioning with wireless device detection capabilities to establish real-time, 24/7 situational awareness. This integrated approach empowers farmers and producers to make informed decisions regarding security, risk mitigation, and public safety.
Together, these components serve as the essential building blocks of digital location intelligence, providing farmers with the necessary tools to navigate the complexities of modern farm management successfully. (More information: https://www.inpixon.com/industries/livestock-tracking)

Implementing advanced livestock tracking technology brings a multitude of benefits and transformative impacts to agricultural operations:
Track the location of each individual animal and monitor the overall herd with unparalleled precision.
Utilize location data to analyse activity, health, heat, and rumination in real time. Power instant health warnings, inactivity alerts, and more for timely intervention.
Harness real-time location data coupled with behavioural algorithms to automate the detection of potential health issues. Proactively identify unusual activity, stress, rumination patterns, and early signs of infection, enabling prompt preventive measures.
Implement geofencing to receive real-time alerts and detect specific events, enhancing overall monitoring capabilities.
Enjoy scalability to track thousands of animals both indoors and outdoors seamlessly.
Save valuable hours by eliminating manual searches and checks for individual animals. Increase profitability, enhance yield, and reduce operational costs. Improve product quality by reducing medication levels, supporting more free-range time, and ensuring a healthier, happier herd. Gain valuable insights into animal behaviour, travel patterns, and dwelling preferences, identifying areas for improvement and efficiency.
Meet global compliance requirements mandating the use of RFID for cattle tracking. Leverage precision UWB and long-range chirp technologies to ensure accuracy, range, and reliability in diverse livestock tracking needs.
By implementing livestock tracking technology, farmers not only ensure compliance and accuracy but also revolutionize farm management, promoting animal welfare, early disease detection, and overall operational efficiency.
