Rural IT specialist Rezare Systems ran trials with UHF ear tags for the RFID of livstock during October-November last year. These on-farm trials were carried out withbacking from Deer Industry New Zealand, the Meat Industry Association, New Zealand Trade and Enterprise, ANZCO, Landcorp Farming, GS1 and the New Zealand RFID Pathfinder Group.
The trials have provided further demonstration of how suitable this technology can be, especially for use with deer and sheep. The full report is now available for you.
