Abstract

An agricultural exchange system includes a smart chute for isolating a live animal. The live animal can be weighed, photographed, and identified while in the smart chute. A subscriber unit receives measured data and transmits the data to a centralized server. The centralized server stores measured data and identification data as part of a product data card for the live animal. The centralized server provides the data as needed to potential buyers directly or through a service provider. Potential buyers may access the data in real time to obtain detailed information on a live animal prior to purchase.
