Abstract
Specifically, a computer implemented animal management program having modules which function to match animal information retrieved from a radiofrequency identification device(s) implanted in an animal(s) with animal information retrieved from a database of at least one computer to assess animal condition and time treatment events.
Claims24
A computer implemented animal management system, comprising:
- a processor communicatively coupled to a non-transitory computer readable media containing program instructions executable to:
- retrieve animal identification information from an RFID device;
- retrieve sensed animal information from said RFID device, said sensed animal information generated by a sensor coupled to said RFID device;
- match said sensed animal information retrieved from said RFID device to animal information of said animal stored in a database including an amount of milk production or a number of days in milk;
- enter said sensed animal information retrieved from said RFID device and said animal information stored in said database as logical variables into at least one logical expression;
- and
- solve said at least one logical expression to obtain a corresponding at least one logical value.

A computer implemented animal management system, comprising:
- a processor communicatively coupled to a non-transitory computer readable media containing program instructions executable to:
- retrieve animal identification information from an RFID device implanted in an animal;
- retrieve sensed animal location information from said RFID device;
- match said sensed animal location information retrieved from said RFID device to animal information associated with said animal identification information stored in a database;
- enter said sensed animal location information retrieved from said RFID device and said animal information stored in said database as logical variables into at least one logical expression;
- and
- solve said at least one logical expression to obtain a corresponding at least one logical value indicating if as to a selected period of time said sensed animal location matches said location information stored in said database.
