Moving animals into a group

In order to increase the accuracy of the active tag solution, you should ensure that animals are in the correct group.

Updated over 2 months ago

Ensure that animals are always assigned to the correct group in Datamars Livestock, to match the physical group of animals on the farm e.g. Herd 1, Herd 2, Sick Mob.
