Abstract
Evaluation of automated in-line precision dairy farming technology implementation in three dairy farms in Italy
Highlights
In recent decades, the dairy industry manages production according to high quantitative and qualitative criteria, placing modern dairy farming within a highly competitive national and international supply chain
The use of a milk analysis system in real time for each individual cow will be a useful way to monitor modern dairy farms[8]. This is part of the management system known as Precision Livestock Farming (PLF), which aims to do the right thing at the right time[9] and outlines a new approach to the application of advanced technologies in the livestock sector[10]
The results showed an acceptable degree of separation for the two milk fractions in all three dairy farms involved
Summary
The dairy industry manages production according to high quantitative and qualitative criteria, placing modern dairy farming within a highly competitive national and international supply chain. Received October 18, 2018; accepted January 15, 2019 In these terms, the use of a milk analysis system in real time for each individual cow will be a useful way to monitor modern dairy farms[8]. Milk composition varies from animal to animal depending on the production stage and many other factors (such as nutrition, physiologic status and health)[11,12]. For this reason, different animals and breeds have been selected and diverse dairy products have been refined according to standard requirements[13,14,15]. The separation of milk may be a useful way to obtain two products with different quality characteristics, such as nutraceutical cheese-making properties, from the same dairy farm
