Cattle Health Management Tags in Australia
CERES TAG products deliver a complete, satellite-connected solution designed to strengthen cattle health management for clients across Australia. These cattle health tracker devices can monitor and capture individual animals' and herds' movements and behaviour remotely, globally, and without the need for any additional infrastructure, towers or network setup. This supports welfare management, operational efficiency and long-term sustainability. With automated insights and individual animal metrics, producers and health professionals can access the information they need to respond quickly to emerging issues, manage land resources and ensure their livestock remain healthy.
Satellite-Enabled Tracking for Complete Visibility
CERES TAG devices transmit data directly to low earth orbit satellites, removing the need for connectivity installations. This satellite animal health tracking technology ensures unlimited global visibility of an animal’s location and movements. Producers can see where cattle are grazing, how frequently they move and whether their behaviour aligns with expected patterns.
Improved Health Insights and Early Disease Detection Through Behaviour Data
A CERES TAG livestock behaviour monitoring system allows for continuous monitoring of animal movements and behaviours such as grazing time, resting patterns and movement changes, helping to identify early signs of health issues. Continuous monitoring can reveal shifts that may indicate disease, injury or environmental stress, enabling timely intervention. With CERES TAG devices, it’s possible to protect herd-wide productivity, significantly reduce the spread of infectious diseases, improve recovery rates, and ultimately reduce production losses and improve profitability.
Seamless Integration with Existing Software
All data from CERES TAG devices is accessible through existing farm or animal management platforms. This simple plug-and-play setup keeps workflows efficient and ensures easy access to relevant insights. The system functions as a complete livestock behaviour monitoring system, supporting both daily decision-making and long-term planning.
Enhanced Welfare Monitoring
By providing detailed information on each animal's activity and wellbeing, CERES TAG helps in identifying welfare concerns. This data-driven approach ensures that animals are kept in optimal conditions, promoting better health outcomes.
Collaborative Health Management
CERES TAG livestock health management devices facilitate seamless data sharing among veterinarians, researchers and animal health authorities. This collaboration is key to coordinated health management efforts, especially in controlling outbreaks and implementing health interventions.
Regulatory Compliance and Traceability
For those involved in the broader biosecurity aspects of animal health, CERES TAG animal health monitoring tags provide an efficient means of ensuring that animals are managed according to health and welfare protocols. The technology supports traceability from farm to fork, crucial for food security and quality assurance.
Animal Monitoring Technology with Direct-to-Satellite Capability
CERES TAG products combine precision technology, direct-to-satellite communication and powerful analytics to support every aspect of herd health management. With on-tag processing and long-life performance, these cattle health tracker devices supply reliable metrics that enhance animal welfare outcomes and operational results.
Immediate Notifications for Faster Decision-Making
Clients receive immediate notifications when animals show no activity or high activity. These alerts help detect sickness, theft, entrapment or distress. The information provided by each CERES TAG livestock health tracking device can help to reduce losses and improve welfare.
Pasture Intake and Performance Metrics
CERES RANCHER, RANCH and TRACE products deliver daily summary packets that include Pasture Feed Intake calculations. Based on 15 years of research, these insights reveal the dry matter intake of an individual cow grazing on pasture, every 24 hours. Observing these trends over time can inform stocking decisions, pasture performance and land management strategies. Metrics are available at both individual and herd levels, giving producers powerful performance data.
Long-Term Value with Zero Infrastructure Requirements
CERES TAG satellite animal health tracking devices function without towers, antennas, batteries or ongoing maintenance. They include three years of satellite connectivity and can be applied easily with the CERES TAG Smart Applicator. This ensures accurate functioning and enhanced traceability.
