Effective Service Solutions in Dairy Farming through Dairy Automation Systems

In order to maximize the production and quality of the dairy farming processes, the inclusion of technology has brought in diverse avenues of options. Some of the examples have been explained below.

Dairy Cows are assigned strict healthy balanced diet to improve their rate of production. This knowledge is given to farmers through certain mobile applications. Example: The national dairy development board (NDDB) in India has launched a mobile app, “Pashu Poshan” to teach the farmers regarding the balanced diet for cows.

Cows feed on roughages and concentrates, out of which few species grow on soil. Not all soils are fertile and plants species are not high yielding at all times. There are systems to grow cattle feeds without soil in a couple of days. Example:  The discovery of this automation technique by hydroponics, Kenya.

The knowledge dissemination in the dairy farming business and data collection of Cattles and also encouraging entrepreneurship sorting out unemployment is done under high involvement of highly equipped systems. Example: The project Moo, introduced by the founder of Edutech, India involves modern systems.

Systems are automated to save time, and wastage of energy by making milking easier and efficient. Example: Introduction of robotic cow milking equipment.

Helps in maintaining proper hygiene among those cows and cleaning easier. Example: The swinging cow brush is a gadget that was introduced to keep the cows stress free, clean and healthy.

Easier to maintain a large herd on a wide big land area. Manual management is very difficult.

Example:  Drone Technology is used widely to check on things with the farm and it is effective to respond in times of emergencies.

In case of difficulty in identifying symptoms of the disease on a specific cow, automation systems help Dairy farmers to know exactly which cow is sick and to react as soon as possible. Example:  face recognition technology cows is a computerized dairy farming technology that is available for dairy farmers.
