Looks great Mark.
Might know this but heading leading to older newsletters is not active.
Will make further comments when I have had more time to look around.
Done a good job Mark Feeding cattle in saleyards is there a time frame for cattle or is it up to agents,transporters or saleyards would like to know .Swan Hill has a great procedure but is it up to saleyard to make that call??
Allan, I think this will have to be treated like the recent dairy bobby calf TOF arrangements in the future.curently each yard seems to have their own rules for feeding that may include fees etc. I will add to the saleyard managers forum discussion in August. However, eventually the rules will have to be understood and known by agents, transporters and producers
Hello Mark and others…
I am the RFID designer from Boontech. We are researching and developing new concepts for Sale-yard readers for your considerations…
Our focus is for “massive numbers” that is as for , this is a difficult thing to do and as its success or failure is a pivotal thing for you all.
I think it should useful to hear more from you all … (while there is still time?).
We are just a little beyond the stage of “blue-sky dreaming” (see our precursor efforts at MountGambia). Not right just yet but soon… soon… Multi-Species is also it’s future objective.
We are focused by the concept of “unhindered speed of commerce” as the holy-grail…
Cobbling together “old panel reader” will not be sufficient for Massive Sale-Yard RFID reading. …we need to take you way beyond, we have many barriers to push and hurdles to overcome… for you.
You future activities will rely greatly on the performance and accuracy of whatever RFID reader stations you choose…the last 7-10 years has been barely tolerated R&D and barely adequate products… we both must turn the coming corner… we are getting ready now as are you.
So, can we have sane/reasonable dialogue? you have questions, we have questions…this may not be the right venue, but it’s newness is a good sign and possibly a good resource for both of us,,,, yes/no/?
Shall we start?
Kind Regards Ray Seidel
