Smart Dairy Farm - Digitalization and Innovation

Abstract
Digitalization is an important part of modern agriculture. Digital dairy farming is developing based on modern digital technologies. These technologies allow the formation of a sufficient cloud of data in accordance with the physiological and technological requirements of different categories of dairy cattle. The article assesses the development of various digital technologies together with biometric sensors and blockchain technologies in dairy cattle breeding, respectively in a modern dairy farm. The tendencies and perspectives for digital innovation and digitalization of dairy farms and complexes are studied. It is concluded that the main factors influencing the development of digital technologies in dairy farming are their price, validity and response time. The aim of the current study is to make a retrospective review, characterization and analysis of modern scientific achievements of various digital technologies and systems applied in the technological cycle of dairy cattle breeding.
