Design and Development of Intelligent System for Dairy Farming

Numerous cattle calves do not return to the sheds after grazing because they become disoriented, resulting in the loss of that specific cattle. If the cattle calves are not counted before and after grazing, it is impossible for the person to manually count them. Cattle calves are sensitive to a range of illnesses/diseases, most of them may reduce the production and quality of milk products and, if not discovered early, could even result in the cattle's death. Diseases have an influence on-farm production, therefore ends up in low production, low income, and low quality. This research work provides a methodology where different sensors and image processing techniques are used to monitor the health of the cattle and alert the user regarding its health condition, also an automated counting system is implemented to count the total number of cattle in the shed.
