Sunnyside, WA | Sounds like I'm in the minority on RFID tags. We started 4 years ago with them in our dairy herd. Have put in thousands so far. Have lost less than 1% of the total.
We use them for management of the herd more than "government tracking." Have three Allflex wands that work with our herd management software. Weekly vet check, moving cows, vaccinations, etc is all done with RFID. Also have daily milk meters in the parlor and use the RFID to identify cows.
Have a lot more trouble losing regular eartags. We have 3 forms of ID: Eartag, RFID tag, and bangs vaccination tag. RFID is usually the last one to be lost. | |
