With the project's success, an e-commerce app will be launched for products with the 100% native breed logo, a consumer information system based on computer vision, and a control and management system focused on the omnichannel customer experience using QR codes.
Digitalization offers opportunities to address some of these short-channel and e-commerce trade challenges and improve the efficiency and sustainability of extensive livestock farming in Spain by improving resource management, animal health, efficiency, and profitability.
Develop a digital e-commerce platform that manages the customer experience in a short online sales channel in the form of a marketplace, based on artificial intelligence (AI) and vision algorithms. Digitalization offers opportunities to address some of these challenges and improve the efficiency and sustainability of extensive livestock farming in Spain by improving resource management, animal health, efficiency, and profitability.
The project's outputs are targeted at all existing farms with local breeds in Spain, which in 2021 numbered more than 94,000 (ARCA, 2022). We must also consider that the computer vision-based consumer information system could be transferred to all types of extensive livestock farming with minor technical adjustments, so the potential users of this specific innovation could be 500,000 companies (MAPA, 2021). We estimate that one in two farms will adopt the digital platform with the completion of the project.
