Using Drones in Livestock Management
Drone Industry Insights
The primary source for global market intelligence for commercial drones, urban air mobility, and electric aviation.
The use of drones for livestock management focuses on finding and counting animals within a defined area. Here, new technologies such as computer vision can help identify and count animals regardless of whether they are moving (a task that is much more complicated for humans or other alternatives). Drones also allow operators to identify sick or dead animals, helping to contain or at least limit the spread of disease.
And it is not just with the animals themselves that a drone can help livestock management. When it comes to [physical] containment, a drone can also perform detailed inspections of fences over vast distances, helping to keep not only livestock in, but also potential predators out.
Drones equipped with thermal imaging cameras can aid in locating lost or missing animals by detecting their body heat signatures, which is especially beneficial during nighttime searches. Additionally, the use of drones for monitoring grazing patterns and land usage can provide valuable data for optimizing feed and pasture management. By regularly surveying the land, farmers can make informed decisions on rotational grazing and land conservation practices, ultimately maximizing the productivity and sustainability of their operations.

6 个月A new use of drones for farmers in livestock management. I hadn’t even thought about the capability of monitoring sick or injured cows over vast areas of land quickly. Huge advantage in monitoring fences and open gates. Of course they are already being used for crop management. Their uses just keep on expanding!
