The Goals of the Solution

• The Goals of the Solution:

  The goal of the project is the integration of data from conventional milking parlors and sensors used in dairy farms in the CR and the creation of tools for automated data flows from farms into a central database for innovation of the milk recording (MR) and benchmarking of dairy farms. The sub-goals are protocols for sharing data from milking parlors and sensors for monitoring the dairy cows behavior and the stable environment, creation of working databases and algorithms for the obtained data evaluation for the refinement of MR system and development of the sustainability index and other parameters for benchmarking farms and predicting the development of the performance, health status and welfare of dairy cows and sustainability of dairy production.
