This has the potential to revolutionise parts of our industry, with benefits across the supply chain. Another example is that everyone in a beef supply chain will know the temperature and condition of the next shipment before and after it reaches its end-point. For the food and manufacturing sector, IoT could become all-immersive in the areas of product safety, packaging and monitoring. AMPC is currently finalising a project in this area, focusing on a meat messaging portal for shipments. A website has recently published the [Top 50 sensor applications.](http://www.libelium.com/resources/top_50_iot_sensor_applications_ranking/) Can meat processors become leaders in this area?
