Advances in Precision Dairy and Beef Farming Technologies

500 Seiten, Hardcover

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Precision livestock farming (PLF) technologies are gaining significant momentum due to their remarkable ability to measure and monitor physiological and behavioural traits in individual animals. With this data in hand, farmers are equipped with the tools to make more informed decisions which can benefit their farm operations and also ensure that the health and welfare of their animals is optimised.

Advances in precision dairy and beef farming technologies provides a comprehensive overview of the range of PLF technologies administered in dairy and beef farming, ranging from the use of machine vision and thermal imaging techniques to monitor dairy cattle health, to robotic milking and the use of virtual herding technologies. The book also reviews recent developments in technologies used to monitor pasture quality, such as remote and proximal sensors.

This book builds on a successful earlier volume published by Burleigh Dodds Science Publishing: Advances in precision livestock farming (2022).
