I read an article about a growing menace of cacti poaching. Apparently, for some national parks, it's a thorny issue. Some cacti species fetch a hefty price which results in succulents being stolen from parks and national lands. The problem is so pervasive, that the rangers and other park workers had to come up with a solution. They have started inserting chips into plants. They hope that the chip insertion will be an effective deterrent and will help them to catch the thieves red-handed.

Your sentence is not wrong, but something like "tracking chips" or "microchips with GPS" would be clearer here.
