This development makes it eminently clear that observation of the mating season in the dairy cattle sector is even more important than assumed so far if the financial losses due to insufficient herd fertility are not to become a business problem. Electronic identification and measuring systems represent key technologies for progressive automation in animal husbandry in modern, future-oriented livestock farming. Suitable objective measuring systems are needed in animal husbandry to quickly and safely recognize illness, normal oestrus cycle, quiet heat or stress in animals. Pedometers and transponders from various companies play an important role in collecting data from animals and assessing animal health and oestrus. Modem sensors (sensors, bio-sensors) increasingly utilize non-invasive measuring and transfer methods to make crucial improvements in the potential for collecting animal data. ER -
