Alambadi
Alambadi cattle is a wonderful indigenous breed that derives its name from a village called Alambadi on the banks of river Kaveri, in the Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu. In this tract, there are plenty of uncultivated forest lands that allow the cattle an abundant pasture and unrestricted roaming grounds. Alambadi cattle are also found in the Erode district of Tamil Nadu.
Raised on the hilly regions of Tamil Nadu, the breed survives on the grazing in the forest regions. The Alambadi cattle in the North are said to be the descendants of the Hallikar breed of Mysore.
The cattle are brought back to villages during harvest times when the harvested fields provide pasture for some time, and the cattle supply the necessary manure for the fields. This breed of cattle mostly exist on grazing and dry fodder only.
In recent years, technology has offered innovative solutions to these challenges, and cattle herd monitoring systems have emerged as a game-changer for farmers. In this blog, we will explore how a cattle herd monitoring system can significantly benefit Alambadi cattle farming and help farmers manage their herds more effectively, ensuring better productivity, efficiency, and sustainability.
A cattle herd monitoring system is a technological solution designed to help farmers track and manage the health, behavior, and movements of their livestock in real time. These systems typically include GPS trackers, sensors, and digital platforms that provide valuable data on the location, activity levels, and health indicators of each animal. By implementing such a system, farmers can gain more control over their herd, improve overall herd management, and make data-driven decisions to enhance farm operations.
