Cattle are handled in batches and handled rarely, so every trip through the race has to produce a usable record. Raybaca supplies the tag that survives between those trips and the reader that captures it without another person in the crush.

The Problems on This Kind of Operation

• Reading printed numbers on muddy ears slows the whole race and produces transcription errors
• Treatment and vaccination events are written on paper and typed up days later
• Weighing sessions record a weight with no reliable link to the animal it came from
• Tags crack in winter or tear out, and the animal loses its identity mid-season
• Movement off farm has to be reconciled against a manifest by hand at the truck

What Buyers Need

• A tag that stays locked and readable for the productive life of the animal
• Reads that happen at a distance so the handler stays outside the crush
• A weight that binds itself to an animal code without anyone writing it down
• Codes that arrive in a breeding or traceability record rather than a notebook

Typical Application Scenarios

• Automatic counting as cattle move through a race or a gateway
• Vaccination and treatment recorded against the animal at the chute
• Weight capture bound to the animal code at the weigh crate
• Loading checks against the manifest before the truck leaves
• Carcass records matched back to the farm of origin

How a Deployment Runs

The order of these steps matters more than the hardware. Getting the frequency and the numbering settled first is what stops a project being redone.

Choose the frequency

Decide whether reads happen at arm's length or at a gateway, because that decides LF or UHF before anything else.

Set the numbering

Laser printed numbering ranges, colour and logo are fixed before production so tags arrive ready to apply.

Tag and verify

Apply with a matching applicator and read each tag once on the day so the code is on file from the start.

Capture events

Handheld readers at the chute, fixed readers at gateways, and the codes push into the management system.

Questions From Beef and Dairy Cattle Farms

A UHF two-piece tag such as the RBC-ET01-UHF, because it can be read at a distance during the handling that does happen and survives the long stretches in between.

Yes. Raybaca smart weighing devices read the ear tag and bind the weight to the animal code, so nothing is written down and matched later.

The tag bodies are TPU specified as anti-freezing and anti-ultraviolet, which is what stops them going brittle and tearing out in frost.
