Abstract

Current research states that the number of livestock in our country is slightly decreased due to lack of constant monitoring and livestock rustling. Thus, the animal tracking is vital as it provides valuable information including the recent location, movement and feeding patterns of certain groups of animals. Technologies such as Global Positioning System (GPS), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), Wireless Networking, Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) and Mobile Computing Systems are being utilized to target specific needs of farmers and also the livestock owners. In this project the location of the animal can be identified using Global Positioning system (GPS) and the received information can be send via Global system for mobile communication (GSM) to the mobile phone with the use of Arduino, a microcontroller board based on the ATmega 32 processor. These systems constantly watch a moving object and report the status on demand by sending the coordinate of the location in real time. These tracking technologies will tend the farmers to better manage their farm land and allowing them to monitor the movement of their livestock throughout the geographical location.
