Collaborative project: Go-2-market of a predictive sensor data based agri-tool for the identification of dairy cows requiring treatment. Subproject 3 (PaRADIgMa)
Project
Project code: 2815710515
Contract period: 01.04.2017
- 31.03.2020
Budget: 103,388 Euro
Purpose of research: Applied research
Increasing livestock sizes require the use of modern technologies (including apps) in order to be able to use the resulting data sets in a target-oriented way. The investigations within the framework of the project showed that the use of sensor data to predict cows in need of treatment is unsuitable. The reason for this is the high effort required for data processing, which is contrasted by a low daily probability of occurrence of treatments per animal. For this reason, the "DairyNet Box" app has been expanded to include functions such as reminders for check-ups, disease histories and recommended actions derived from these, with a focus on claw and udder diseases. The new app functions support the automation of operational processes in milk production. They help the user to keep an overview of the tasks to be done and at the same time to concentrate on the animals that need special attention.
