HP Laptops Keep Pilot on Track

Overview

According to the National Agriculture Statistics Service, as of January 1, 2006, there were some 97.1 million cattle and calves in the United States. Production on this scale is necessary to supply both the nation's and the trading partner's beef and dairy needs. But this large-scale opportunity also presents an animal health/public safety challenge: when an animal becomes sick, it's critical to quickly locate that individual animal and also to accurately determine whether any other animals were exposed to a potential disease threat. It's a challenge that demands robust, innovative Information Technology solution, like that offered by ViaTrace in partnership with HP.
