RFID technology realizes modern livestock breeding

The development of information-based precision breeding based on RFID technology reflects the need to standardize, standardize and modernize the animal husbandry industry. The traceability system based on RFID technology identifies and interconnects the data in the management of supply chain links such as growth, processing, storage and retail in the aquaculture industry. The breeding industry has always been at the bottom of the industrial chain. Due to many factors leading to information asymmetry, rural areas have been unable to transform their green and pollution-free resources into brand advantages. RFID technology realizes modern livestock breeding.

The chicken farm anti-counterfeiting traceability system mainly includes three systems: data collection system, data storage and chaining system, and data verification system.

Data collection system: Each chicken has a unique ID

The data collection system mainly relies on the ring-shaped snap-on IoT device (chicken tag) worn on the chicken leg to collect data (marked in red in the picture below). The chicken tag contains a pedometer module, a positioning module, a communication module, etc.

Each chicken tag will have a unique ID generated by the system and a QR code that can be scanned. Once the Chicken Card buckle is closed, it starts working and cannot be disassembled. Once disassembled, the electronic link device inside the buckle will be damaged, thus losing the data collection function.

Communication base stations usually include a main base station and several sub-base stations. The sub-base stations are deployed in a grid shape and are responsible for collecting data information from chicken tags operating nearby, and summarizing the data and sending it to the main base station. The main base station will then send all messages to the message middleware. Since a large number of IoT devices may generate massive amounts of data content, message middleware can act as a flood reservoir here, shaving peaks and filling valleys.

Data storage and chaining system: content cannot be tampered with

Storage: Since the amount of data generated by IoT devices is very large, and the storage limitations of the blockchain itself prevent all data from being directly Stored on the chain, an intermediate storage medium is needed to store the original data.

On-chain: Perform data digest calculation on the stored File to obtain the digital signature of the file (since the digital signature of the file is a summary of the original content of the file, any modification to the original content of the file will generate a new file signature).

Data query and verification system: scan the QR code to know the information

After consumers purchase chickens, they can query the entire life cycle information of the breeding product by scanning the chicken brand QR code on the chicken legs (or the RFID chip information in the sensing device), including entry time, number of steps, Coordinates, slaughter time, slaughter time, quarantine agency, logistics information, blockchain last transaction address (LastHash), etc.

Electronic identity management has been used in Europe and the United States for several years and has become a showcase of technology. In addition to its internal applications in automatic rationing and production statistics of breeding, it can also be used for animal identification, disease monitoring, quality control and tracking of animal species. The main advantages of RFID technology in the livestock industry are as follows:

Non-contact identification, data collection is real-time and effective

RFID technology uses non-contact radio frequency identification to collect and systematically manage data from electronic tags placed in or on animals. It is an extremely effective management method for understanding the health status of animals and controlling animal epidemics.

Waterproof, can be applied to animal bodies

It uses low-frequency tags that can penetrate water and animal bodies and are insensitive to water and metal. Whether the tag is placed inside the animal or on the body, it can be read quickly and easily.

The number is unique, difficult to forge, and easy to manage

The electronic tag is placed on the animal when it is born. The electronic tag is one-time use, uniformly numbered, and has a unique number. Through the traceable management of individual animals, precision feeding is carried out to improve meat quality; at the same time, health warning and quality monitoring are carried out, which greatly increases the economic benefits of the enterprise.

Combined with information technology, it is conducive to tracking and management

Through the supporting software management program, the entire growth cycle can be monitored. Record the pasture where it was raised at different times, as well as its epidemic prevention status, health status and other important information. When a food animal reaches the standards for slaughter, the slaughterhouse will strictly check the "quality file" of the animal. Only after passing the strict inspection can it be slaughtered, and the "file" will be archived for future "quality traceability".

The diet, exercise, and health status of each unit's breeding can be automatically controlled around the clock, and health warnings can be set in the computer. Any epidemics and ordinary epidemics can be automatically recognized, and can be confirmed and processed in a timely manner. Extremely high degree of control. Breeding enterprises can easily use computers to obtain macroscopic or individual stocking, slaughtering, epidemic situation, etc., and make accurate choices.
