Within the pilot project Smart Dairy Farming, companies, research institutes and farmers together to develop innovative resources in the field of animal health, fertility and nutrition. This means farmers can extend the life of their cows. The concrete result consists of sensors, indicators, decision models and advisory products that help in making the right choices when caring for cows. Proper care contributes to better health and longer life expectancy of the animals. Thus, this project contributes to the sustainability of the chain.
