Application of RFID in Modern Dairy Farms

in RFID Tutorials on . 0 Comments



In the practical application of RFID, the electronic tag is attached to or embedded in the surface of the identified object. 


When the identified object with the electronic tag passes the readable range of the reader, the reader automatically places the electron in a contactless manner. The agreement identification information of the tag is taken out, thereby realizing the function of automatically recognizing the object or automatically collecting the object mark information.


RFID is used in dairy farms with large breeding scales, high breeding levels and high individual productivity. The conventional manual marking of cows is distinguished from the naked eye recognition. It is difficult to work, has low resolution efficiency, and has high error rate. It is difficult to accurately and comprehensively grasp the production level and individual status of dairy cows, which cannot meet the requirements of modern cattle farm management.


As a new non-contact rapid automatic identification technology, RFID is being more and more widely used in modern, large-scale farming industry towels. The technology can be applied in many aspects of dairy cattle production, including automatic ration of cattle rations, statistical analysis of milk production, individual identification of cows, prevention and control of disease surveillance, product quality control and animal traceability tracking.


Individual accurate electronic files are distinguished from traditional dairy cards and paper archives. The electronic logo designed for dairy cows stores all kinds of basic information about cows, and has a 16-digit number that is strictly in accordance with International Organization for Standardization (ISO) coding standards. When the cow is born, the electronic logo is fixed on the animal body, and the electronic logo is used once, uniformly numbered, and the number is unique.


Electronic signs are usually designed and packaged in a variety of forms such as injection implants, ear hooks, rumen and ankle rings. In practical applications, through the supporting software management program, various dynamic data can also be stored correspondingly and updated in real time to form a dynamic database of individual cows.


The real-time monitoring and data acquisition application radio frequency technology can monitor the status of the cows in real time and timely and accurately collect various data information recorded by the electronic identification. The wireless radio frequency system can dynamically identify and record the data of the cow's weight, feed intake, exercise amount, etc., combined with other sensors of each breeding module to record and record the bovine body condition, the cattle farm environment temperature and humidity, and dynamically monitor the condition of the cattle at the computer terminal. Monitoring, once the data collected by the system exceeds the health warning threshold set in the computer, the management system can automatically identify it and provide timely feedback to judge the physiological state of the cattle, adjust the feed structure and supply quantity, and formulate the treatment plan. Reference data.


The module is equipped with an auxiliary feeding and management radio frequency system, which can be used as an information platform to carry a number of auxiliary feeding modules. The movement pedometer on the electronic sign is used to record the amount of exercise of the cow, and the accumulated data and standard parameters in the database are used to judge the condition of the cow's sewn and the estrus identification; the precision feeding module is used to cows with different milk production at different growth stages and on the same day. In the computer system, comprehensive training 'calculates the best concentrate replenishment. Feedback to the precision feeding system for precise feeding, in order to achieve the purpose of different feeding of different cows; equipped with milk analysis and detection module.


The milk production, milk production efficiency, milk composition and other data of each cow can be monitored and recorded, the breast health status of the cows can be grasped in time, and the feed formula is scientifically perfect; the milking station monitoring module can be recorded and entered. Each shift in the milking parlour, milking time per cow, milking status, equipment status.
