Technology

Precision Operations. Total Visibility.

Every deployment is tracked, geo-fenced, and documented with the same technology used in defense and energy infrastructure.

01

Virtual Geo-Fencing

Every grazing zone is defined by GPS-accurate virtual boundaries before a single animal arrives on site. Real-time alerts trigger if herds approach exclusion zones — protecting panels, equipment, and sensitive areas.

Custom zone polygons per project site

Automated breach alerts to field operators

Zone status: Active, Scheduled, Complete

Geo-fence operations platform
Self-healing mesh network
02

Smart Collars & Mesh Network

GPS-enabled smart collars on lead animals track herd movement in real-time. Data flows through a self-healing wireless mesh network — solar-powered relay nodes that maintain connectivity even in remote terrain with no cell service.

Real-time GPS position every 30 seconds

Self-healing mesh — nodes auto-reroute on failure

Solar-powered, zero infrastructure required

03

LiDAR Verification Scans

Drone-mounted LiDAR scans document vegetation height before and after every job. Clients receive 3D point cloud data proving work completion to spec — not just photos, but measurable, auditable terrain data.

Pre/post vegetation height comparison

Exportable 3D point cloud deliverables

Meets utility IVM documentation standards

Multi-Project Command

One dashboard to manage every active project nationwide. Live herd positions, zone status, daily logs, inspector notes, weather alerts, and completion metrics — all in real-time. Your project manager never has to call the field to ask "what's happening."

Daily automated progress reports

Use Cases

Where Targeted Grazing Works

Solar Farm Vegetation

Under-panel and perimeter grass and weed control. No equipment damage risk. Panel-safe operations for utility-scale and community solar.

Pipeline ROW Clearing

Woody vegetation and brush removal on pipeline rights-of-way. Prevents encroachment, maintains inspection access, zero soil disruption.

Transmission Corridors

IVM-compliant vegetation management under high-voltage lines. Steep terrain access where mechanical clearing is impossible or dangerous.

Wildfire Fuel Reduction

Creating defensible space and reducing fuel loads on public and private land. Proven effective in WUI zones across the western US.

Invasive Species Control

Targeted removal of kudzu, multiflora rose, poison ivy, and other invasives without herbicides. Goats eat what chemicals often can't kill.

Park & Trail Maintenance

National parks, state forests, and municipal trail systems. Chemical-free management that's quiet, non-disruptive, and visitor-friendly.

DOT Road Shoulders

Highway medians, interchanges, and road embankments where mowing crews face safety constraints. Contained operations with zero traffic impact.

Wetland & Riparian Zones

Sensitive waterway buffers and wetland edges where herbicides are prohibited and heavy equipment causes erosion. Light-footprint grazing only.

Construction Site Prep

Pre-construction vegetation clearing for residential and commercial development. Lot clearing, grubbing reduction, and ongoing maintenance during phased builds.

Cemetery & Memorial Grounds

Quiet, respectful vegetation management for historic cemeteries and memorial sites. No noise, no fumes, no risk to headstones or monuments.

Stormwater & Retention

Retention ponds, drainage ditches, and stormwater basins where standing water makes mechanical access difficult. Goats navigate wet terrain naturally.

Rail Corridor Management

Active and abandoned rail rights-of-way. Ballast shoulder clearing, sightline maintenance, and vegetation control without track access restrictions.

Environmental Impact

Zero Emissions. Zero Chemicals. Net Positive.

Every project replaces diesel equipment and chemical herbicides with a carbon-neutral, biodiversity-positive alternative. The math isn't close.

Carbon & Fuel Savings

A typical 50-acre mechanical clearing job burns 400+ gallons of diesel and emits over 4 metric tons of CO2. Targeted grazing: zero. No engines, no fuel trucks, no emissions. Clients can document real carbon offset data for ESG reporting.

Chemical Elimination

No glyphosate, no triclopyr, no chemical drift into waterways or neighboring properties. Meets the strictest environmental standards for sensitive habitats, wellhead protection zones, and organic-adjacent operations.

Soil & Ecosystem Health

Grazing preserves root systems, prevents erosion, and promotes native seed germination. Natural fertilization improves soil biology over time. No compaction from heavy equipment. Pollinators and ground-nesting species return faster.

ESG & PR Value

Visible, photogenic, story-ready. Solar companies, utilities, and municipalities use grazing programs in sustainability reports, press releases, and community engagement. It's the only vegetation method that generates positive media coverage.

Environmental Credits

Documented carbon reduction data supports voluntary carbon credit programs and corporate sustainability commitments. We provide per-project emissions avoidance calculations compared to mechanical baseline.

Noise & Community Impact

Zero noise complaints. Zero exhaust. Operations run silently next to hospitals, schools, neighborhoods, and parks. Communities welcome grazing crews — they don't file complaints about them.

Municipal & Commercial

Not Every Job is a Pipeline.

From small-town solar fields to commercial lots to public parks, we handle projects at every scale. Same compliance. Same tracking. Same results.

Community Solar

Small-Scale Solar Fields

Town-owned and community solar installations where heavy equipment isn't practical. We manage vegetation on 2-20 acre sites with the same precision as utility-scale projects.

Commercial & Industrial Sites

Overgrown lots, embankments, retention ponds, and facility perimeters. Chemical-free clearing for properties where herbicide use is restricted or unwanted.

Towns, Parks & Public Land

Road shoulders, drainage ditches, park trails, cemeteries, and public grounds. We work with DPW departments, land trusts, and parks services on projects from 1 to 100 acres.

About

The National Prime Contractor for Targeted Grazing

Deploy Goats bridges the gap between enterprise clients who need compliant, documented vegetation management and the local operators who do the work. We serve as the single prime contractor — handling compliance, insurance, project management, and reporting — so our clients get one contract and one point of contact.

Our network of vetted grazing operators covers 38 states and growing. Every operator carries verified insurance, completes our safety orientation, and meets our quality standards before receiving their first assignment.

Founded by operators who understand both the work and the business, Deploy Goats exists to professionalize targeted grazing and make it accessible to the utility, energy, and government clients who need it most.
