"Maximizing Livestock Management: The Advantages of Virtual Fences for Cows"
Ranchers in Florida are using virtual fencing, based on GPS technology, to control the movements of their livestock, improving grazing lands, preserving wildlife, and saving time and labor. The system allows for quick adjustments of boundaries using a phone app or computer, and researchers are studying its effects on grazing patterns, conservation, and carbon dioxide release. While the technology has benefits, it can be costly, and efforts are underway to develop low-cost options for use in developing countries.
