Project Summary
Animal Production – New Generation project is based on research integrating genomic, environmental, and biometric components in dairy cattle breeding, as well as their effects on functional, health, and production traits. The results will serve as a foundation for developing artificial intelligence models, with a special focus on welfare traits and newly defined characteristics. A machine learning model, specifically designed to recognize animal behavior patterns in breeding facilities, will be used to develop a prototype of a comprehensive software system connected to a series of electronic sensors. This system will enable monitoring and proactive intervention in key breeding processes within modern dairy cattle farming.
