CERES TAG: Leading the charge in livestock management and productivity across the U.S.

As the U.S. agricultural sector continues to evolve with technological advancements, CERES TAG is leading the movement by providing innovative solutions to enhance livestock management and regulatory compliance. This Australian-born, direct-to-satellite technology is rapidly gaining traction across both research and commercial applications in the U.S., revolutionizing the industry by improving production and profitability through groundbreaking innovations such as Pasture Feed Intake (PFI).

Driving Efficiency and Compliance with Pasture Feed Intake (PFI) Technology

CERES TAG's PFI technology is at the core of its success, allowing farmers to accurately monitor and manage the feed intake of their livestock. Without the need for any additional terrestrial infrastructure, this innovation helps optimize feed conversion efficiency, leading to healthier animals and more profitable farming practices. The advanced algorithms provide vital data on methane emissions and feed conversion ratios, enabling farmers to make informed decisions and enhance overall productivity.

Conforming to New Regulatory Standards

In light of the new U.S. Bill in Congress requiring deforestation-free supply chains , CERES TAG is uniquely positioned to ensure compliance. The smart ear tags automatically generate evidence needed to prove adherence to these stringent environmental standards, thereby eliminating any risk of greenwashing. This automation not only provides certainty but also helps farmers maintain transparency and accountability in their operations.

Expanding Distribution in North America

On the back of record global sales driven by the uptake of the Pasture Feed Intake capabilities, CERES TAG signed Animal Health Express as its first official distributor in the U.S. Renowned for its reliable supply of veterinary, equine and livestock products, Animal Health Express became the first of a growing list of distribution partnerships, promising even wider access to CERES TAG’s pioneering technology across U.S.A. and Mexico.
