Would it be in theory possible to setup sensor's along rural area fences using solar to forward data from possible RFID tags or something? Trying to think of a way to utilize ear tags for cattle getting loose. I'm sure setting up repeaters and could forward stuff over long range p2p wifi AP's.

Just thinking if anyone knows how to potentially pick up nfc or super basic equivalent that could be placed in the ear tag. Most solutions now have some sort of battery replacement which would have to replace ear tags. or have some bulky gps collar.

Waiting for some flexible solar panel printable? that could be placed on the ear tag and some antenna picking up the super low frequency emitted.
