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.
AgriOrbit is a product of Centurion-based agricultural magazine publisher Plaas Media. Plaas Media is an independent agricultural media house. It is the only South African agricultural media house to offer a true 360-degree media offering to role-players in agriculture. Its entire portfolio is based on sound content of a scientific and semi-scientific nature.
