The Application of RFID Technology in the Animal Field
The application of RFID technology in the animal field can include wildlife management, fish management, poultry management, zoo management, pet management, etc. Now let’s take a look at the specific applications.
1, Wildlife management
By implanting electronic chips into nationally protected wild animals and installing RFID readers within their activity range, animal activity information can be collected to achieve tracking and monitoring, thus better protecting wild animals.
2, Fishery management
By installing chip readers at monitoring the return of fish and implanting electronic chips into the bodies of released fish, the return of fish can be detected smoothly and the reasons can be analyzed.
3, Poultry management
Poultry management is the most widely used area for RFID technology, including raising cattle, chickens, pigs, sheep, etc. By attaching electronic foot rings or RFID ear tags to poultry to record health records and tracing feeding information, problems can be effectively traced back to the source information. With the expansion of the application market and the reduction of RFID technology costs, it is expected that in the future, all products we purchase will be able to view source information and eat safe and reliable food.
4, Zoo management
By implanting electronic chips into the animal’s body and writing necessary information such as source, breed, age, generation, and enclosure, and uploading it to the zoo’s ERP system, when a certain animal needs to be queried, it can be easily viewed by entering the electronic number through the management system.
5, Pet management
As the size of RFID chips continues to decrease, more and more pet stores are replacing easily detachable pet identification tags with electronic chips for identity authentication management of pets. Moreover, the lifespan of electronic chips can last up to 10 years, accompanying pets without any impact on their activities.
