Intensive Farming - Feedlots
Feedlot management involves a completely different form of husbandry and stock control. Whether this is pigs or cattle, the issues that need monitoring revolve more around gate control feed delivery and water supply. Arcoflex can monitor all these things, including water chillers, air circulation fans and more. In fact, incorporating RFID monitoring technology into your feedlot will mean total animal location control, including anti-rustling measures.
Typical solutions cost less than $20,000, plus installation.
