project - EIP-AGRI Operational Group
Improvement of resource efficiency in dairy farming through artificial intelligence in farm feed purchasing (FEED 4.0)
Objectives
The project aims to develop a web service prototype that stores feeds available in Germany and suggests them to the most suitable dairy farmers using an intelligent search and suggestion function - in combination with farm-specific feed optimization and ration design.The prototype should be able to suggest the best solutions from hundreds of feed qualities within seconds. The project is thus expected to make a significant contribution to resource efficiency and material flow transparency and also to increase feed health and feed efficiency through improved feed rations.
Activities
In order to build a user-friendly software/online platform that automates and brings together feed buyers and sellers with the goal of more sustainable dairy farming, the methodology of agile software development - based on a human centered design approach - is used. The high inherent transparency and flexibility should lead to a faster deployment of the developed systems to minimize risks in the development process.
