How does Active Farm Solutions Benefit Farming?
41,107 cows were slaughtered in England, Scotland and Wales just from tuberculosis related illness from August 2016-July 2017 and millions of poultry, sheep and pigs die each year from preventable disease, fire and flooding. With our ActiveHerd™ boluses you can monitor bovine temperature changes to detect diseases like BVD and TB, in individual cows, before they show outward signs, to prevent infection spreading to the whole herd. You can also monitor feed quality and stress factors like overheating, housing density and barrier feed-point overcrowding. IoT-enabled temperature, fire and flood detection sensors can prevent poultry death from disease and natural disaster.
