How Virtual Fencing Works


With Skygraze, your smartphone becomes your fence. Map out custom pastures in seconds using our intuitive app. Our solar-powered dual-band GPS collars track your herd’s every move with pinpoint accuracy 24/7. 
Each animal wears a solar-powered collar that monitors its position in real-time. As an animal approaches a boundary, it is guided back by a clear audio signal. If the warning is ignored, a brief, gentle pulse ensures the animal stays within the designated area. No wires, no heavy labor—just smart farming.

Explore the numerous benefits 

1. Save time every day

 No more manual setup, checking, or repairing of physical fences. Remote herd management reduces labor and minimizes the risk of injury for both you and your livestock.

2. Reduce infrastructure expenses

With virtual fencing, you eliminate the need to invest in posts and wire, saving you thousands every year. Traditional fencing is costly in terms of both materials and labor.

3. Grazing in challenging terrain

Areas that are too steep, rocky, or dense for physical fencing can now be utilized for grazing. This unlocks the potential of land previously considered inaccessible or of no value.

4. Flexible pasture management

Easily adjust boundaries for precision grazing, such as strip grazing or rotational grazing. This can boost grass production and ensure your animals always have access to fresh forage.

5. Real-time monitoring

Track the real-time position of every animal, 24/7. This makes it effortless to locate your herd in large pastures or dense terrain, eliminating the need for manual searching.

6. Instant escape alerts

Receive an instant notification on your phone if an animal leaves the virtual boundary. You can see exactly where the animal is and act quickly to retrieve it.
Enables a rapid response to threats such as predators or off-leash dogs.

7. Protect sensitive areas

Create temporary exclusion zones to protect sensitive areas, rare plants, or wetlands—all without disrupting the landscape with physical barriers.

8. Enhance animal welfare

The collar’s sensors monitor animal activity (rumination, rest, movement, etc.). Data analytics will be able to detect illness, injury, or heat at an early stage.

Imagine rotating your herd while sitting down for a coffee. 

With Skygraze app, you can manage your pastures anytime from anywhere.
