This project sets out to expand the use of easily attainable milk spectral results to provide a risk status of ketosis likelihood at an individual cow level. There is significant potential for this new tool to increase the efficiency of GB milk production by reducing costly body weight changes, improving health and fertility, and ensuring more targeted us...

This project centres on exploring the potential to extract key new information from the spectral analysis gained through the mid Infra Red testing of individual cow milk samples. The scope exists to use the spectral data gained from such testing to estimate the quantity of a range of fatty acids in milk. Such information is valuable in terms of assessing ...

The consortium will develop a health and condition monitoring platform, a foundation to creating decision support applications in order to catalyse improvements in production efficiency and a concomitant reduction in waste and losses in the ruminant protein supply chain. The solution will encompass reliable and continuous monitoring and sensing of specifi...
