Real-Time Monitoring System for Tracking and Identification of Poultry Based on RFID

Abstract

Poultry is an important food resource that provides protein essential for human survival. In particular, in developing countries, poultry breeding not only solves the food problem but also serves as a basis for economic activity. For this reason, the management of poultry is an important issue. In this study, we propose a poultry tracking and identification system using IoT. It is possible to monitor poultry in real time through the proposed system. The system is divided into two main parts. The first part is the part that works by attaching a sensor to the poultry. The sensor embeds individual information about each poultry, which is then used to identify the poultry. The second part is an IoT device that can read information from sensors mounted on poultry. The device senses poultry information to perform tracking and identification. In addition, the sensed information was implemented to be transmitted to the IoT analysis server for real-time monitoring. Field tests were conducted through farmers, experts, and agricultural organizations to verify the manufactured system. As a result of field test verification, it was found that poultry real-time monitoring and identification worked well.
