Why Sonar
Why Sonar?

Sonar is not just a technological tool—it's a comprehensive IoT solution designed to maximize efficiency and engineered specifically for swine and poultry operations.

By leveraging real-time data and advanced analytics, Sonar enables producers to make informed decisions that enhance productivity and desired outcomes.

Evident & Unparalleled ROI

Implementing Sonar is an investment that pays off quickly. On average, farms using Sonar experience six-figure savings within the first two years of adoption.

These savings stem from optimized operations, reduced losses, and an overall improvement in farm management.

Enhanced Monitoring

Sonar offers granular control over farm performance, allowing you to monitor 360 conditions down to the pen level. The system's smart alerts notify you of any deviations from optimal conditions, enabling quick corrective actions. This level of oversight ensures that your farm operates at peak efficiency, minimizing losses and maximizing productivity.

Hardware Agnostic

One of Sonar's standout features is its compatibility with existing cloud-based hardware. Whether you’re using legacy systems or the latest technology, Sonar seamlessly integrates into your current hardware ecosystem.

This approach ensures that you get the most out of your existing investments while gaining access to Sonar's cloud-based, secure, and user-friendly platform.

High-Precision Impact
Meet the Future of Farming Analytics

From growth strategies to business-saving alerts, Sonar’s capabilities are as advanced as they are impactful. For the better and for the future.

Decimal Accuracy

Accurate bird weight projections are critical for efficient farm management. With Sonar, weight projection accuracy with bird scales is within 0.2 lbs. for 80% of flocks.

7-Day Weight Increase

Farms utilizing preheating strategies saw a 0.05 lb. increase in the 7-day weight of their birds. Sonar’s real-time monitoring ensures optimal environmental conditions, leading to better growth rates.

30-Day Weight Increase

A study by our Data Science team revealed a significant 0.341 lb. weight increase in flocks raised in preheated houses by day 30, showcasing the impact of precise environmental control.

Loss-Preventing Smart Alerts

In one instance, Sonar’s smart alerts saved over $250,000 by identifying and resolving a critical issue within minutes. When the water supply to six broiler houses was cut off, Sonar detected the anomaly, alerting a user, who miles away, was able to correct the issue. This quick resolution prevented a potentially devastating loss.

Data Science Findings
The data science team has created a new bird weight prediction algorithm that doesn’t require bird scales. Using only feed consumption data, we’re able to predict bird weights accurately.
How it works:
This prediction method handles different types of feed systems.
We use algorithms to fill in the gaps of missing data. With any physical hardware, measurements aren’t always perfect. Our algorithms can fill in missing or partial data to obtain good predictions even with wrong metrics.
Handles shared feed bins (where farms have a single feed bin that can feed two different houses)
We’re not just predicting weight, we are predicting all of the following: Weight, Feed Conversion (FCR), Head Sold / Mortality, Feed Consumption
Future evolutions of this algorithm will include other sensor data like water.

Real-World Applications
Unified Data Collection
A significant challenge producers face is the fragmented nature of data collection, with each piece of hardware transmitting data to its own platform. This fragmentation creates inefficiencies and complicates data collection and analysis across different systems.

Sonar corrects this issue by streamlining all data from various hardware into a unified, industry-tested platform, making it simpler to derive actionable insights that drive better decision-making and operational efficiency.
Enhanced Feed Scheduling
With Sonar, feed management becomes a precise science. The system captures real-time feed inventory data and integrates it with Amino, leading to vast improvements in feed scheduling.

Our partners have reported a reduction in haul-backs and credits to 75 lbs. per 1,000 birds, a significant improvement that directly impacts on the bottom line.

Optimized Processing Scheduling
Sonar provides up-to-the-hour live weight data, which is crucial for optimizing processing schedules.

By feeding this reliable data into BRPA, Sonar ensures that processing plants operate at peak efficiency, reducing downtime and ensuring that production aligns with actual bird weights.
Optical Character Recognition
OCR is a technology that recognizes text within images, including scanned documents and photos. It converts different types of documents—such as PDFs, images captured by a camera, or paper documents—into editable and searchable data.
Improved Feed Conversion Ratio
Feed is the single largest cost in poultry farming and improving feed conversion efficiency is key to profitability.

Sonar's precision farming capabilities allow for optimized feed strategies, reducing waste and enhancing FCR from day one.
