The project Cows for One Million Families, the Thai government cow loan scheme for farmers, is expected to involve the application of RFID technology.

The technology is expected to ensure the efficiency of the loan scheme through cow tracking and better database maintenance.

Starting early next month, the loan scheme is due to be implemented until 2008.

Cow business is special in India, because cow is considered sacred among Hindus. It does not matter whether it is a stray cow or a cow owned by someone, a cow is protected by the law of India.

The growing problem of stray cows has given the New Delhi's authorities an idea to implement RFID technology, considered an appropriate technology for animal control, to identify stray cows.

By inserting $12 worth of RFID tags into the stray cows in the streets and providing a reward of $46 to anyone bringing the stray cows to the authorities, the authorities can later demand $233 from the owner of the stray cows.
