Dairy robotic milking system

Abstract

The article presents the results of studying the technology of robotic milking in the aspect of digitalization of dairy cattle breeding. The relevance of the topic lies in the fact that in Russia the task is to introduce the technology of “precise” animal husbandry based on digital technologies. It is noted that in our country there are successfully functioning dairy complexes, where digital technology tools, including robotics, have been introduced. The technologies for identifying animals, determining the quality of milk, controlling the robotic complex and the milking process are described. The robotic milking system is a progressive technology in terms of the use of digital technology elements: big data, the Internet of things, artificial intelligence. It is necessary to take into account the experience of these farms in order to increase the efficiency of introducing innovations.
