Animal welfare and productivy: is it compatible?
Considering the animal as a real commercial partner and not as an exploitable resource would significantly increase the profitability of farms.
By putting animal health at the center of concerns, Faromatics, a company based in Barcelona (Spain), wants to make the livestock industry more acceptable and more practical through the use of precision methods, thanks to AI and deep learning.
Chicken Boy, a robot dedicated to broilers’ welfare and farmers’ productivity, detects and treats diseases at their early stage, and also behavioral anomalies, equipment failures, then making animal health and welfare a real source of profit (through data collection, visualization and analysis tools).
