I don' t have experience in use of drones. I'd like to introduce the use of UAV as a tool for livestock management in the Sustainable cattle ranch in Colombia . In the course and other materials about drones find the following uses: 1. Inventory, identification and tracking animals. 2. Livestock health and reproduction ( heat detector). Pastures , and sylvopastoril monitoring. 3. Surveillance. 4. Soil, water and field analysis. 5. Biodiversity and trees monitoring. 6. Mapping and division for pasture yards. 7. Verified life and electric fences. 8 moving cattle. I hope in the future adopt and implement this technology and share the experience with you!. Thank you very much for your attention.

Drones are useful tool in livestock. It's important not only for tracking or located animals in the ranch. It's a great for ranch managemet , verified and control pastures , and grassing rotation.
