Precision livestock farming technologies: Novel direction of information flow

Öz:

Precision livestock farming (PLF) is a digital management system that continuously measures the production, reproduction, health and welfare of animals and environmental impacts of the herd by using information and communication technologies (ICT) and controls all stages of the production process. In conventional livestock management, decisions are mostly based on the appraisal, judgment, and experience of the farmer, veterinarian, and workers. The increasing demand for production and the number of animals makes it difficult for humans to keep track of animals. It is clear that a person is not able to continuously watch the animals 24 hours a day to receive reliable audio-visual data for management. Recent technologies already changed the information flow from animal to human, which helps people to collect reliable information and transform it into an operational decision-making process (eg reproduction management or calving surveillance). Today, livestock farming must combine requirements for a transparent food supply chain, animal welfare, health, and ethics as a traceable-sustainable model by obtaining and processing reliable data using novel technologies. This review provides preliminary information on the advances in ICT for livestock management.

Hassas hayvancılık teknolojileri: Bilgi akışının yeni yönü

Öz:

Hassas hayvancılık (PLF), bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerini (ICT) kullanarak hayvanların üretimini, üremesini, sağlığını ve refahını ve sürünün çevresel etkilerini sürekli olarak ölçen ve üretim sürecinin tüm aşamalarını kontrol eden dijital bir yönetimsistemidir. Geleneksel hayvancılık yönetiminde kararlar çoğunlukla çiftçinin, veterinerin ve işçilerin değerlendirmesine, muhakemesine ve deneyimine dayanmaktadır. Üretime yönelik artan talep ve hayvan sayısı, insanların hayvanları takip etmesinigiderek zorlaştırmaktadır. Bir kişinin, yönetim için güvenilir görsel-işitsel veriler almak için günde 24 saat sürekli olarak hayvanları izleyemeyeceği ise açıktır. Son teknolojilerle bu bilgi akışı hayvandan insana olarak değişmiş ve bu da toplanılan güvenilir bilgilerin, operasyonel ve efektif olarak bir karar alma sürecine dönüştürmesine (örn. Üreme yönetimi veya buzağılama takibi) yardımcı olmuştur. Günümüzde hayvancılık, yeni teknolojileri kullanarak güvenilir verileri elde ederek ve işleyerek izlenebilir ve sürdürülebilir bir model olarak şeffaf bir gıda tedarik zinciri, hayvan refahı, sağlık ve etik gerekliliklerini birleştirmelidir. Bu yayında, hayvancılık veri yönetiminde kullanılan bilgi ve iletişim teknolojileri alanındaki gelişmeler hakkında güncel bilgiler derlenmiştir.
