A Study on the Android Based Livestock Vehicle Management System

Abstract

In domestic livestock industry, economic damages of livestock farmhouses have been increased because the livestock mortality rate grows due to the spread of infectious animal diseases. The main cause of animal disease spread is a lack of systems to manage livestock vehicles transporting livestock or feed etc. This paper proposes a livestock vehicle management system based on Android for solving such a problem. The proposed system could prevent the spread of animal diseases in advance by collecting and analyzing the moving routes and access information of livestock-related vehicles. It could monitor moving routes of the contamination-suspected vehicles that visited a farm where the animal disease broke out. It is expected to prevent the livestock disease spread in advance through prompt initial prevention such as controlling the movement of vehicles by systematically collecting and managing information on vehicles accessing to livestock farmhouses through this system.
