Virtual fencing uses behavior modification based on audio and electrical cues from a collar device to keep cattle within a virtual boundary using GPS. The collar can be controlled by a phone, tablet or computer using cellular data.
The advantages of virtual fencing include:
- Less logistically challenging
- Less labor intensive
- Greater management flexibility
- Gives data on how, when and where cattle graze, allowing for better resource management
- Cattle location tracking
- Cost effective in certain situations
