BEEF

Health-related economic losses represent the primary constraint on profitability in commercial beef operations. Cattle's initial response to disease involves immune system activation, with elevated body temperature and behavioral deviations being the earliest clinical indicators. Validated research demonstrates that integrated sensor systems monitoring temperature and movement patterns enable pre-symptomatic detection. This facilitates timely interventions - including observation protocols, segregation protocols, and precision therapeutics - significantly reducing morbidity/mortality rates while improving production economics.
