Techniques have been developed to minimize the use of manpower in order to reduce production costs in raising livestock such as horses, sheep, cattle, and pigs.
As a related art, "Remote Rearing Method Through the Internet" (Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0357250, Patent Document 1), a camera is installed on a farm, a valve for supplying water, food, and medicine is installed, To supply water, food, and medicine to livestock remotely.
The above-described Patent Document 1 has a merit that a camera, a sensor or the like is installed inside a barn to grasp the state of being at a remote place by using Internet communication, and supplies feed, water, and medicine at a remote place, .
However, recently, many cattle raised in a narrow space such as a barn has been suffering from diseases such as mad cow disease, foot-and-mouth disease, avian influenza, and the fact that feeds containing antibiotics are supplied, As a result, the preference for livestock breeding is gradually increasing compared to breeding livestock.
In addition to the difficulty in grasping the position of livestock, difficulties in grasping and managing water supply facilities, and rising production costs due to increased use of manpower to manage the livestock, , It is difficult to cope with rapid changes in natural environment such as abnormal high temperature, low temperature, rainfall, snowfall, etc. Therefore, economical efficiency is low and manpower is required.
In an effort to improve such grazing breeding, "Ubiquitous-based grazing system" (Korean Patent Registration No. 10-1219178, Patent Document 2) discloses a technology for remotely controlling and managing livestock and ranch dogs have.
