As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the ear tag 1 has an ear tag body 11, a stem 12, an ear tag identification member 13, a temperature sensing member 14, an action sensing member 15, a wireless communication member 16 and a battery (not shown). In this embodiment, a plurality of ear tags 1 are provided to monitor the health status of the livestock.
As shown in fig. 3, in the animal husbandry management system 100 provided by the present embodiment, the ear tag body 11 has a first housing 111, a second housing 112 and a bottom cover 113. The second housing 112 and the bottom cover 113 enclose an accommodating space S for accommodating the electronic component. The first housing 111, the second housing 112 and the bottom cover 113 are assembled together by means of a snap.
As shown in fig. 2 to 4, the stem 12 protrudes from the first housing 111 of the ear tag body 11. The end of the stem 12 opposite the tag body 11 is a tip 121. Tip 121 is a cone or pyramid. The ear tag 1 is fixed to a body part of a livestock by passing the tip portion 121 through a body part of a livestock and through a through hole 131 of the ear tag identification member 13 by using the ear tag clamp.
