Abstract

Cattle farming is undoubtedly one of the most lucrative subsectors of agriculture globally, but faces significant challenges such as the inability to monitor cattle health and location, and cattle rustling. This research aimed to develop a system to resolve these issues using sensors to monitor ambient/body temperature, magnetometer, and GPS. The proposed system comprises these components in a head strap. Data were transmitted via a long-range (LoRa) module to a base station, then to a website and mobile app using General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)/satellite. Information was received and monitored in real-time. Testing showed the system could be deployed in vast farmland to monitor cattle health and location satisfactorily in real-time. Unlike other systems, this system monitors cattle health and location with/without mobile network coverage due to satellite communication. In conclusion, the proposed system monitors cattle health and location status with or without mobile network coverage due to an alternative communication channel (satellite) compared to other related systems.
