One of the biggest problems threatening the livelihood of the Livestock Farmer. The loss of a single animal does not only constitute its meat value, but also its genetic value, offspring, milk, wool, etc.

The loss of a single milk cow constitutes a total loss of: 4 adult animals + 2 one year old calves + 160600 liters of milk over a 60 month period.

The loss of a single sheep constitutes a total loss of: 11 adult animals + 10 one year lambs + 21 wool sheers over a 60 month period.

In farming, where all your assets are open for the taking, one tends to wonder how it is possible to survive financially? Acceptable losses to theft, predators and disease are in the order of 0-5%. Anything above that constitutes a real danger to the sustainability of a farming enterprise.

HOTGROUP's range of protection collars and services not only protects your heard against theft and predators, but also detects behavioral changes, disease and temperature extremes. Additional features such as virtual fencing and satellite monitoring can also be added to this service.
