About

Luigi Sartori is a leading researcher in sustainable livestock engineering, focusing on the intersection of animal housing design, manure management, and precision dairy farming. His work addresses critical challenges in reducing the environmental footprint of dairy operations while improving farm efficiency. Sartori’s most impactful contribution is his 2018 study on ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions from slatted dairy barn floors cleaned by robotic scrapers (31 citations), which demonstrated how frequent manure removal can significantly curb harmful gas emissions that affect animal welfare, farmer health, and the climate. He is also a key authority on Automatic Milking Systems (AMS), with his 2017 paper on estimating efficiency in robotic milking (20 citations) providing foundational insights for optimizing labor and production costs in modern dairy farms. More recently, Sartori has advanced energy monitoring in fully automated dairy farms (2020), showcasing integrated approaches to resource management. His research is widely cited by engineers, animal scientists, and policymakers seeking data-driven solutions for cleaner, more efficient livestock systems. Sartori’s work is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of sustainable animal agriculture and smart farming technologies.
