A world-first smart ear tag for animals that uses satellite technology is helping farmers locate and monitor their livestock's health and activity, all while boosting biosecurity and productivity, and reducing costs.
Co-founders of CERES TAG, Melita and David Smith, strongly believe and have proven that technology and innovation can have a profound impact in agriculture.
After living and working for many years abroad, Melita and David returned to their agricultural roots in regional Queensland.
Here they drew from experience and time on the land to develop a functional tool for farmers.
Their ideas translated into exactly that—a highly useful, commercialised product that has positioned them as leaders in the global AgTech ecosystem.
