Description
Summary:Early detection, diagnosis and treatment of cattle disease is very important for any livestock farming enterprise, to remain viable. Improved cattle health and productivity through advanced and innovative smart farming technologies will pave the way for the United Arab Emirates in achieving its national agenda of food security. Advanced livestock health care bio-capsules were administered through mouth into the rumen of cattle in a private dairy farm to a group of cattle to monitor their health. The effect of using such biosensors on the animal health was not previously described by any other researchers. Hence, in the current study, we tried to understand the effects of the bio-capsules on the cattle health, if any. This was done through collecting and screening blood samples from the test animals for different hemato-biochemical parameters and our results showed that there were no harmful effects of using such bio-capsules for livestock health monitoring.
