UHF RFID Plant Breeding Label, 100 × 60 mm, 10 m Read: overview
The ST-130 is a UHF RFID plant label for breeding programs, nurseries, tree farms and horticultural research. Each label carries a unique chip ID that links a plant or plot to its records (variety, parent lines, planting date, treatments and measurements), captured in the field instead of copied from handwritten tags.
The label is molded in PP with a 100 × 60 × 3 mm head and a total length of 360 mm. The product photo shows a T-shaped stake with a pointed stem that pushes into soil or growing media, leaving the flat head visible above the plant. Inside is an Impinj Monza 4QT chip working across 860–960 MHz.
It has the longest rated range among our seal, tie and plant tags: 10 m with a 4 W fixed reader and 2.5 m with a handheld. An operator can walk a row and pick up labels without bending to each pot, and a fixed reader at a greenhouse doorway or on a trolley route can log batches as they move.
Integration notes
UHF anti-collision lets a reader inventory many labels in one pass, so use your handheld's search or filter mode to locate one plant on a crowded bench. Water and dense foliage absorb UHF energy, so expect shorter distances than the rated figures in wet, heavily planted beds, and test in your own growing conditions.

ST-130 FAQ
How far can the label be read?
The datasheet lists 10 m with a 4 W fixed reader and 2.5 m with a handheld. Wet soil and dense foliage shorten this, so test in your beds or greenhouse.
How is the label attached?
It is a T-shaped stake with a pointed stem, 360 mm long overall, pushed into soil or growing media. For hanging tags on branches, see the ST-160 leaf tag or the ST-140 cable tie tag.
Which readers can read it?
Any EPC Gen2 UHF reader operating within 860–960 MHz, which includes both the 902–928 MHz and 865–868 MHz bands.
Can we number labels with our own plant IDs?
Yes. Each label has a globally unique chip ID, and the EPC memory can be encoded with your own plant or plot numbering using a UHF reader/writer.
