COVINGTON, La.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Globalstar (NASDAQ: GSAT), a next-generation telecommunications infrastructure and technology provider, announces its continued partnership of delivering critical global connectivity for the agricultural technology solutions developed by CERES TAG, the world's leading animal health intelligence platform, as it prepares its readiness in the event of an outbreak of the New World Screwworm.The New World Screwworm seriously threatens animal welfare and herd productivity, with potential economic fallout measured in hundreds of millions of dollars if not swiftly contained.Share As the livestock industry in Mexico grapples with the recent outbreak of this vector-borne disease, the powerful partnership between Globalstar and CERES TAG is critical in helping producers and authorities to act quickly and contain the spread of the disease. The outbreak, which has led to the recent border closure to live animal imports, has placed cattle producers on high alert. The New World Screwworm seriously threatens animal welfare and herd productivity, with potential economic fallout measured in hundreds of millions of dollars if not swiftly contained. Over the last decade, the economic impact of zoonotic diseases has been estimated to be $20 billion, directly, and $200 billion indirectly. CERES TAG’s smart ear tags enable livestock monitoring through real-time behavioral data, GPS location, and biosecurity triggers, all transmitted without reliance on cellular infrastructure. Globalstar’s satellite network ensures uninterrupted connectivity across even the most remote ranches. “These are extremely devastating events,” CERES TAG Founder and CEO David Smith said. “But you can limit damage by supporting real-time traceability and detection with technology like what CERES TAG offers. We have advanced algorithms developed by researchers worldwide, but it's hopeless if we can’t communicate that information when there’s a trigger. Globalstar is an integral partner in all of this.” “Satellite technology is no longer just a backup; it’s a core infrastructure of agricultural intelligence,” Globalstar Vice President of Global Sales Jake Rembert said. “We’re proud to support CERES TAG in delivering real-world solutions that help protect food security and animal health globally.” As more frequent and widespread zoonotic diseases emerge, ranchers and governments are investing in next-generation solutions that combine intelligent sensing with resilient connectivity.
