Title: Experimental plans for electronic identification field test. [National Livestock Electronic Identification System]

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6033548

The first experiments of the electronic identification field test are under way with continuous temperature monitoring equipment. Scientists at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (LASL) have nearly completed a reference identification and temperature monitoring system that will be compared with commercial systems in a field situation. Purchase of commercial equipment has been delayed because of difficulty of manufacturers in meeting the performance specifications but those problems appear to be near resolution. Organization of the user group is proposed and planning of the first experiments to evaluate the costs and benefits of a National Electronic Identification System.
