About
Dileta Regina Moro Alessio is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of precision livestock farming, dairy science, and animal welfare. Her primary research focus is the optimization of automatic milking systems (AMS), particularly robotic milking, for Holstein Friesian cows. Alessio’s major contributions include identifying key production and behavioral factors that influence milking frequency in robotic systems, a critical variable for both milk yield and udder health. Her most cited paper, “Impact of the factors of animal production and welfare on robotic milking frequency” (2018, 11 citations), provides foundational insights into how management practices affect voluntary milking behavior. She has also investigated the relationship between udder conformation and hygiene, showing how udder depth affects teat cleaning efficacy and mammary gland health in automated settings. Additionally, her work on ingestive behavior and parity-related differences in robotic milking systems (2020) offers practical guidance for herd management. Alessio’s research is directly applicable to improving the efficiency and welfare of dairy cows in increasingly automated production environments, making her a valuable voice in the transition toward smart, data-driven animal agriculture.
