Performance Beef Scale App
Title: Asynchronous capture, processing, and adaptability of real-time feeder livestock ration weight information and transfer over wireless connection for mobile device, machine-to-machine supply chain control, and application processing
Patent number: 9924700
Abstract: A method and system is provided in a framework and workflow for assisting in livestock feeding operations by tracking and weighing ingredients from an electronic scale associated with feed mixing equipment. The framework and workflow captures, transfers, stores and processes parameters for cattle feeder ration weight data collection. The method and system include initializing a collection of weight data related to components of a feed ration for a mixing of feed for livestock, capturing a scale identifier from a scale interface on mixing equipment, and capturing weight information from the scale interface as the components of a feed ration are loaded into the mixing equipment. Such information is broadcasted over a wireless radio communication connection, such as via a Bluetooth® device, to a mobile application, and displayed during feed mixing operation.

Performance Beef Adaptive Growth Model
Title: Adaptive livestock growth modeling using machine learning approaches to predict growth and recommend livestock management operations and activities
Patent number: 10354342
Abstract: A method and system is provided in an adaptive framework for modeling livestock growth. The adaptive framework processes input data relative to livestock growth in an ensemble of one or more models and an artificial intelligence layer configured to select the most appropriate or primary model to optimize, predict, and recommend livestock feed operations based upon environmental, physiological, location and time variables within such input data. The adaptive framework also optimizes workflow by pen and by producer, based upon historical performance, gender and breed and the management practices of the producer.

Performance Beef Animal Health
Title: Livestock and feedlot data collection and processing using UHF-band interrogation of radio frequency identification tags for feedlot arrival and risk assessment
Patent number(s): 11574251 / 11055633 / 10628756
Abstract: An agricultural data collection framework is provided in a system and method for tracking and managing livestock, and for analyzing animal conditions such as health, growth, nutrition, and behavior. The framework uses ultra-high frequency interrogation of RFID tags to collect individual animal data across multiple geographical locations, and incorporates artificial intelligence techniques to develop machine learning base models for statistical process controls around each animal for evaluating the animal condition. The framework provides a determination of normality at an individual animal basis or for a specific location, and generates alerts, predictions, and a targeted processing or application schedule for prioritizing and delivering resources when intervention is needed.
