Integrating farming and security solutions for productivity

Issue 8 2023 Agriculture (Industry), Integrated Solutions

Security challenges are a harsh reality in South Africa, particularly for those in remote areas. Sadly, recurring rural crimes like farm attacks and livestock theft are part of the farming community’s lives. Stock theft, in particular, has the biggest economic and criminal impact, causing many farmers to dismantle their farms.

Adopting a holistic security system tailored to farming communities with a comprehensive range of integrated technologies is the way to go. Having a fully integrated, turnkey package that combines surveillance, intelligent fencing, solar power, video management, off-site monitoring, asset tracking, livestock management, health and safety, and connectivity enables farmers to safeguard their lives, assets, and valuable time and resources.

Integrated farming security solutions

Security BIS’ farming solutions empower farming and livestock operations. The weighing and electronic identification system automates animal management and handling tasks, reduces labour costs, and enhances data accuracy. Precise animal data enables data-driven decision-making, improving safety, profitability, yard management, and stock value.

Security BIS provides comprehensive solutions for peace of mind in rural South Africa, whether securing your farm or managing livestock.
