ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
THE DAIRY CATTLE SECTOR IS FACING DIFFICULTIES DUE TO THE REDUCTION IN MILK PRICES, THE INCREASE IN THE COST OF FEEDING AND THE UPCOMING ABOLITION OF THE QUOTA SYSTEM IN THE EU (ABRIL-2015). THE NEED TO IMPROVE THE COMPETITIVENESS OF THE DAIRY ENTERPRISE REQUIRES DECISIONS THAT ARE OFTEN DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE BECAUSE THEY ARE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON MANY ECONOMICAL AND TECHNICAL FACTORS AND THEIR INTERACTIONS.
IBOSP PROJECT WILL INTEGRATE LAST TECHNOLOGICAL APPROACHES WITH TRADITIONAL BROILER PRODUCTION TO PROVIDE THE MEAT CHICKEN INDUSTRY WITH AN INTELLIGENT SYSTEM ABLE TO SUPPORT AN EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BROILER PRODUCTION. THE MODEL OF SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION WILL BE BASED ON CONSIDERATIONS FOR ANIMAL WELFARE AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY. BY MEANS OF THE MOST NOVEL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ALGORITHMS, KNOWLEDGE MODELS TO OPTIMALLY MANAGE BROILER PROCESSES WILL BE GENERATED, OFFERING KEY RECOMMENDATIONS TO HELP INDUSTRY TO DESIGN BETTER PRODUCTION STRATEGIES.
