Vence's digital fencing platform and app allows ranchers to isolate specific areas such as protected areas and waterways for grazing., by use of GPS collars worn by the cattle which emit a Radio Frequency (RF) signal that is used to automatically create a virtual fence around the cattle.
Control of a herd and where it grazes may be important when adapting to climate change and extreme weather. Vence’s digital fencing platform and app enable ranchers to isolate specific areas for grazing, such as protected areas and waterways. Instead of physical fences or corrals, the Vence app uses GPS collars worn by the cattle to rotate a herd through pasture. Collars emit a radio frequency (RF) signal to put a virtual fence around the cattle. The Vence app keeps track of a herd’s location. If any cattle breach the virtual fence an alert is sent and the animal in question located and collected with the help of GPS tracking. Vence’s virtual fencing technology also enables cattle producers to gather real-time data on their herd. The app monitors animal well-being, collecting data from sensors built into the livestock-worn devices.
