Sheep Flock Monitoring With Low-Power Collars; Agro-informatics; Precision agriculture; Evidence synthesis; On-farm technologyAbstract
There is real interest in sheep flock monitoring with low-power collars right now, and real uncertainty about exactly where it
delivers the most value. We pull together the current evidence for sheep flock monitoring with low-power collars, covering the
methodological, practical, governance and cost angles, with an eye on where practice has genuinely settled and where farms and
advisors are still largely working it out for themselves. Selective, context-specific adoption looks better supported by the evidence
gathered here than either broad rollout or blanket avoidance.
