About

P. Susmel is a pioneering researcher in agricultural automation, with a primary focus on the integration of advanced technologies into dairy farming systems. Their most-cited work, "Automation in dairy farms: a robotic milking system" (2002, 3 citations), introduced the concept of computer-aided control for monitoring physiological and sanitary parameters in livestock, demonstrating how automation could enhance productivity while reducing labor-intensive tasks. This foundational study, conducted within a Research Consortium, highlighted the potential for robotic systems to transform traditional farming practices by improving efficiency and animal welfare. Susmel’s contributions have been instrumental in bridging the gap between engineering and agriculture, paving the way for modern precision livestock farming. Though their citation count remains modest, the work’s early recognition of automation’s role in dairy operations has influenced subsequent developments in smart farming technologies. Susmel’s research continues to inspire innovations in sustainable agriculture, emphasizing the importance of data-driven decision-making and robotic integration in rural settings.
