Advanced Swine Management: Anti-Shedding RFID Round Ear Tags
Efficient pig farming starts with reliable animal identification. Due to pigs’ active behavior and close confinement, tag retention is a major challenge—lost tags can lead to data gaps, disrupted traceability, and extra labor. Our Anti-Shedding Round RFID Swine Ear Tags are specifically engineered to solve this problem, providing a durable, secure, and smart identification solution built for modern swine operations.
These tags combine robust RFID technology with a streamlined round design to ensure high retention rates, even in crowded, high-contact environments. Say goodbye to lost tags and unreliable records—this is identification that sticks with your pigs for life.
Anti-Shedding Design: Built to Stay On
Tag loss is a common and costly issue in swine operations. Our round RFID ear tags are purpose-built to reduce shedding and protect both animal welfare and your data system.
Key design features include:
Smooth Round Profile: The curved, edge-free shape helps prevent snagging on pen structures or other pigs, drastically reducing accidental pull-offs.
Durable TPU Construction: Made from high-quality Thermoplastic Polyurethane, these tags are flexible, strong, and resistant to abrasion, UV exposure, moisture, and common farm chemicals.
Secure Locking System: The male-female locking design ensures a tight fit that resists tampering or separation, using a standard livestock applicator.
The result: fewer lost tags, reduced re-tagging stress, and a more reliable identification system that saves time and money.
RFID Integration: Smarter, Faster Management
Each tag features an embedded passive RFID chip, typically in the LF range (134.2 kHz or 125 kHz), offering a unique electronic ID for every pig. This enables seamless data tracking and boosts overall management efficiency.
RFID benefits include:
Accurate Data Capture: Scan pigs during treatments, vaccinations, or weight checks—no manual data entry, no errors.
Full Traceability: Maintain a digital record from birth to market, essential for disease tracking and regulatory compliance.
Health & Performance Monitoring: Use RFID-enabled systems to track feed intake, growth, and health events for each animal.
Faster Sorting: Automate grouping and sorting for treatments, breeding, or shipping with RFID-integrated equipment.
Data-Driven Decisions: Link performance metrics to electronic IDs to improve genetics, health management, and productivity.
RFID tagging turns your herd data into a powerful management tool—accurate, accessible, and easy to integrate into existing farm software.
