Precision livestock farming

Precision livestock farming (PLF) concerns the use of sensor technology to monitor the lives of livestock animals continuously and in real-time, with the purpose to manage livestock welfare, health, productivity as well as environmental impact of the livestock sector. The current development of PLF technologies provides a new and innovative opportunity

A machine vision system to predict individual cow feed intake of different feeds in a cowshed

Animal, 2022
Data on individual feed intake of dairy cows, an important variable for farm management, are currently unavailable in commercial dairies. A real-time machine vision system including models that are able to adapt to multiple types of feed was developed to

Diffusion of precision livestock farming technologies in dairy cattle farms

animal, 2022
The rising global demand for animal products and the growing public concerns about the environment and animal welfare require dairy farms to improve their efficiency and apply more sustainable farming systems. Precision Livestock Farming (PLF) could represent a valuable support in addressing these challenges.

Quercetin Protects Blood–Brain Barrier Integrity via the PI3K/Akt/Erk Signaling Pathway in a Mouse Model of Meningitis Induced by Glaesserella parasuis

Biomolecules
Glaesserella parasuis (G. parasuis) causes serious inflammation and meningitis in piglets. Quercetin has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial activities; however, whether quercetin can alleviate brain inflammation and provide protective effects during G.

Estimating Amino Acid Requirements in Real-Time for Precision-Fed Pigs: The Challenge of Variability among Individuals

Animals, 2021
This study aimed to measure protein deposition (PD) in pigs fed with daily tailored diets where either dietary lysine (Lys) or threonine (Thr) were provided at independent levels (ignoring an ideal ratio).

The precision livestock farming

Acta Agraria Debreceniensis, 2012
The application of information technology is the response of the livestock farming to the demand of customer, legal and economical expectations. This technology is the socalled precision livestock farming (PLF). The elements of the PLF are: continuous monitoring of inputs, animal behaviour by sensors, an algorithm which converts these signals into a ...

Integrated Characterization of ceRNA (circRNA/lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA) Regulatory Networks in a Glaesserella parasuis–Induced Mouse Meningitis Model

Animals
Glaesserella parasuis (G. parasuis, GPS) is a known causative agent of meningitis. A growing body of research indicates that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are deeply involved in modulating inflammatory responses.
