Drought Early Warning: From Reactive Crisis to Proactive Herd Management
In collaboration with the Borena Zone Pastoralist Office and a local NGO, Mobile Vet deployed 4,500 RFID-GPS tags and 3 LoRaWAN base stations to test whether satellite-based drought alerts could change farmer behaviour before visible pasture degradation.

Digital Traceability Unlocks First Livestock Collateral Loans for Pastoralists
Working with a regional microfinance institution and the Afar Regional Veterinary Services, Mobile Vet created digital livestock passports for 2,800 animals across 180 households. These verified records enabled the first-ever livestock-collateralised credit products in the region.

Containment of CBPP Outbreak Through Real-Time Alert Networks
A Contagious Bovine Pleuropneumonia outbreak detected in Jijiga zone triggered automated quarantine alerts to all registered farmers within a 25km radius and coordinated vaccination logistics through Mobile Vet's veterinary network.

Pilot partnerships open for 2026
We are actively seeking government agencies, NGOs, insurance companies, and veterinary organisations to co-design and co-implement our first pilots.
