How does an RFID livestock tracking system work?

Each animal receives a durable LF/UHF RFID ear tag at birth that is registered in the herd master. Handheld readers in pens and fixed readers at the milking parlour and weigh-bridge capture each animal's ID, feeding breeding, health and yield data into one farm-management platform.

What RFID hardware is needed for livestock tracking?

A typical deployment uses RFID livestock ear tags, an RFID handheld reader for field and health checks, and LF 134.2 kHz panel readers at the milking parlour, race or weigh-bridge for one-animal-at-a-time identification, with UHF gate readers for batch counting. Identium sources this enterprise-grade hardware through its sister store IndiaRFIDStore.com.

Is the RFID livestock tracking system available across India?

Yes. Identium is a New Delhi-based provider and offers RFID livestock tracking for dairy farms, cattle ranches, poultry and aquaculture operations to farms across India, including metros such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad and Pune.

How much does an RFID livestock tracking system cost in India?

Pricing depends on herd size, tag type (LF or UHF) and the reader hardware required. Identium provides a custom quote based on your farm's animals and infrastructure, so request a quote to get started.

Does the system support regulatory compliance and traceability?

Yes. It maintains per-animal electronic-ID records in a ISO 11784/11785-compliant format, supporting regulatory traceability and full farm-to-table traceability that adds a premium in organic and export markets.

Can farm staff update animal records from the field?

Yes. A mobile farm app lets farm hands log observations and treatments against each animal's RFID tag, keeping breeding, vaccination, milk-yield and health records synced in a single platform.
