Digitalisation, capture and use of available information in dairy farms with robotic milking in Spain to strengthen their sustainability.
To capture the daily information collected by the milking robot at the level of each animal and relate it to data on foot health and udder health in order to select the animals that best adapt to robotic milking. The adaptability of the animals to the robot will be monitored; new management indicators and traits for the genetic improvement program will be defined that reflect said adaptability; foot health and udder health, two determining factors for the proper functioning of an automatic milking system in a dairy cattle farm, will be monitored and improved; and a total economic merit index will be defined and implemented to select animals suitable for a farm with automatic milking.
- Capture daily information collected by the milking robot at the farm level along with activity and rumination data if available.
- Connect information captured at the farm level with milk monitoring data, foot health data, and udder health data.
- Develop a 360º intelligent management tool that relates all the information available at the individual animal level to detect alert situations.
- Incorporate new traits into the genetic improvement program that help select animals that transmit better adaptability for robotic milking to the next generation.
- Access and download robot data for each farm.
- Connect different sources of information in a relational database and establish an automatic cross-validation process.
- Develop a 360º intelligent management application that manages the information received to define alerts and send them to farm technicians to assess their level of significance and the urgency of action.
- Define new traits that express the adaptability of animals to the demands of the robot and the genotyping of animals.
