Known as Beefie, the new technology allows producers to calculate their cattle weights in less than half a minute by attaching an external device to an Android 5.1+ smartphone and capturing a range of photographs.
Created by Agroninja, developers are planning to expand their distributor network into other countries, including Australia, after launching the product in Europe. Beefie co-founder Gergely Boromisza says the device will make life easier and less stressful for both cattle farmers and their livestock.
