This is because data is often labour intensive  to collect. The information which has been gathered is difficult to access and often insufficiently reliable or timely. Paperwork is abundant between parties in the food chain. But those days are numbered. Litams now offers a service which provides objective, per-animal-data sets, which are accurate and real-time. Farmers, traders, transporters and abattoirs have access to easy to understand information with the simple click of a mouse.

Litams provides Objective, Accurate and Real-Time information

Using EID in combination with Litams enables the introduction of management and marketing strategies which increase the value of the flock and minimize the costs. These new management approaches can only be realized because animals are measured for their potential level of production, based on pedigree, race, sex, breeding, feeding and growth. Accurate data is essential when making decisions. Litams reduces errors in your holdings register to near zero. Our automated tag reading delivers more than 50% savings in labour, and at the same time expands the base of relevant data tremendously.

Free compliance to DEFRA, food safety guidelines and marketing

Many sheep keepers simply want to comply with new DEFRA guidelines with respect to EID and the movement of animals. If that is all you want, Litams is your best choice. Litams offers several lowest cost solutions for farmers, markets, traders, transporters and abattoirs. Yet, it will only be a matter of time before new guidelines will be issued on food safety. Would you know – Litams already has incorporated those guidelines in its subscriptions. As a matter of fact, with Litams you can take your business to a higher level.
