Impact of Thermal Stress on Behavior and Performance of Grazing Cattle: Insights from Multimodal Sensor-Based Monitoring

A successful departure for the Shannon Airport cattle

he Shannon Airport Group has successfully completed the initial phase of its Farmland Biodiversity Enhancement Project, marking the first use of grazing cattle on airport owned land in Ireland. Located at Thady’s Hill, this 10-acre site near Shannon Airport is one of the most ecologically significant areas across the Shannon Airport Group lands. It hosts a habitat of national and international importance, including rare and endangered species of…

Impact of Thermal Stress on Behavior and Performance of Grazing Cattle: Insights from Multimodal Sensor-Based Monitoring

Cattle have been observed to change their behavior and location in response to thermal stress. This study employs a multimodal sensor-based approach to monitor the behavior of beef cattle grazing in pasture during two trials conducted in Queensland, Australia, over late spring and early summer. E...
