Cattle farmers in South Africa often operate in remote regions with limited telecommunication infrastructure. Therefore, solutions must be robust, reliable, and low-maintenance. Even on large private farms, challenges persist in maintaining herd cohesion and promptly locating straying or injured animals. What’s needed is an affordable solution that provides real-time tracking and alerts for livestock movement and well-being.
GSatRancher offers a durable satellite tracking device that can be easily attached to livestock using ear tags or collars. With GSatRancher, farmers can receive location updates multiple times a day, tailored to their specific needs and budget. Paired with GSatTrack, a comprehensive tracking and asset management platform, farmers gain insights into livestock behavior and movement patterns. Geofences can be set up around critical areas such as pastures and watering holes, triggering alerts when animals enter or exit these zones. Additionally, alerts can notify farmers when an animal remains stationary for an extended period, indicating potential distress. Understanding how the solution works collectively, farmers can swiftly respond when an animal goes missing or appears injured, minimizing losses and ensuring animal welfare. This proactive approach saves lives, reduces revenue loss, and optimizes operational efficiency for cattle farmers across South Africa. With GSatRancher, we’re not just protecting livestock; we’re safeguarding livelihoods and strengthening the resilience of our farming communities.
